Chapter 77
John was a little discontented when he got the call.
Because it's not time for them to contact.
"What's the matter?"
He inquired impatiently.
Evelyn also ignored it and explained her intention directly.
"Amelia is going to have a birthday banquet at Hawks' house. You know, I don't have any experience in this area. I need your help."
After that, she seemed afraid of John's refusal and added, "If you don't help me, I'll probably be exposed."
John listened, and his impatience diminished a lot. "I see. I'll send someone over to help you."
Anyway, he still needed this girl to stay at Hawk family, so naturally he can't sit back and watch her to be exposed.
"But if I help you this time, you'll have to learn it as well. There's still a year to go. There's no shortage of such things. I can't send someone to help you every time." He warned sharply.
Evelyn naturally understood what he meant.
The number of times of helping is too many, and the Hawks will always find something wrong.
"I know. I'll pay attention."
She responded with lip pressed, and John hung up the phone.
...
The next day, Evelyn just got up and went downstairs. The housekeeper came to inform that someone of Davis family was coming.
She nodded to let the housekeeper lead the way, and soon she saw three strangers standing in the living room.
They all wore professional suits, their hair was carefully combed, and the whole person looked very skilled. "Young lady."
The first woman saw Evelyn and greeted respectfully.
"Are you the men my father sent to help me?"
Evelyn glanced at them and headed for the dining room.
"Yes, young lady can call me housekeeper Jones, and the latter two are my assistants."
housekeeper Jones gave a neither humble nor arrogant response.
Evelyn nodded and finished breakfast before she took her housekeeper Jones to the main house.
As soon as she entered the living room, she saw Sofia and Amelia talking and laughing in the living room.
But when they saw her, the laughter on their faces suddenly converged.
"Why did you come here?"
Sofia asked with some bad attitudes.
Evelyn didn't care, either. She told them why she came here.
"Didn't Mom tell me arrange Amelia's birthday banquet yesterday? Here I've got professionals to come over and discuss the specific itinerary with mother.
When she finished, she introduced housekeeper Jones to Sofia: "This is housekeeper Jones. She has a lot of experience in hosting banquets. I think she should satisfy mother and sister."
Sofia didn't expect Evelyn to ask for help, and then fell her face.
"Nora, what do you mean? I'll give you full control over this matter. You turn around and ask someone to do it. Don't you take my words seriously?
Amelia was also dissatisfied with Evelyn's pushing things out. Sofia now scolded her, and Amelia's eyes flashed with joy.
Evelyn did not notice the emotion on her face.
When she heard Sofia's rebuke, she shook my head and said, "No, Mom. It's not what you think. Such a big occasion, you tell me arrange it alone. To be honest, I can't do it. I'm afraid you can't do it either." Sofia heard this and was going to scold her again, but Evelyn interrupted her.
"Mom, I know what you want to say, and you shouldn't blame me with some kind of irresponsible words, because what I said is the truth. Today I'm bringing people to prepare it, or you'll let my people finish it, or else I won't get involved in it, so as not to mess up sister Amelia's birthday party, otherwise you'll blame later."
Sofia was angry with what she said, but she can not refute.
When Amelia saw the situation, she quickly went up to comfort her and said, "Aunt Sofia, since sister-in-law knows she was not capable of this, that's all right, so she won't make any mistakes and embarrass Hawk family."
Sofia was convinced by her words, but she didn't mean to say something to Evelyn.
Amelia saw her admit defeat, so she said to Evelyn, "Then, I'll trouble sister-in-law."
Evelyn looked at her pretended face, and laughed, "It's no bother. Sister Amelia tells housekeeper Jones your hobbies quickly, so as to keep the birthday banquet from flaws."
Housekeeper Jones also cooperated, taking out her notebook and looking at Amelia.
Amelia watched the two men's movements, and somehow she was upset.
Isn't she supposed to be very proud? Why does it get so suffocated in heart?
Especially when she saw Nora was sitting on the sofa, her attitude was not humble, not overbearing, which made her even more angry.
For a while, she regretted that she should not give the party to the bitch to plan, so that she would not be in a dilemma at this time.
But things have been decided. It's too late for her to repent. She can only bite her teeth and say what she doesn't like.
"I don't like food that is too greasy and tasty, so I should give priority to light food on that day... I don't like the banquet to be too traditional and it needs a new sense of site layout. There are invitations letters for guests, I want them to be made of bamboo and peach tree, with fragrance, the appearance needs to be aesthetic..."
She said her requirements half an hour. Originally, she said a lot of requests to stump Evelyn's people deliberately, but housekeeper Jones took all these down, so she lost patience.
"All right, that's all."
Evelyn gave her a smiling glance and asked sideways, "Do you take all these down? Don't make any mistakes, or you'll the one to be blame."NôvelDrama.Org © 2024.
housekeeper Jones bowed her head respectfully. "Young lady can rest assured that these have all been wrote down."
Evelyn heard this, nodded satisfactorily, then turned to Sofia and laughed, "Mom, these people may often come and go in and out of the main house these days, and I hope you don't feel too noisy."
She took precautions in advance lest they should take the opportunity to look for her trouble later.
Sofia did not know what she was thinking. She said, "The first floor, they can go in and out freely, but the second floor, it is the private sector. They are not allowed to go up without permission." "Sure."
Evelyn nodded in agreement, then glanced at Amelia, who had a heavy face, then she again exhorted housekeeper Jones and others.
"When you go out later, buy the things needed for the banquet. Remember to buy the best. Don't neglect Sister Amelia."
Housekeeper Jones responded head-on.
Amelia was too angry to vomit blood by the repeated words " sister Amelia".
Nora was deliberate!
She gritted her teeth and stared at Evelyn, who pretended not to see her. Evelyn stood up and said goodbye to them with a smile.
Sofia didn't like her, naturally she would not keep her.
She asked the housekeeper to send them away, and she saw Amelia, who looked terrible.
Knowing that she minded Evelyn's words just now, she soothed her by saying, "Amelia, don't get angry, it's just the beginning. I don't believe she will not make mistakes this time." Amelia naturally recognized the implication in her words, and her eyes flashed with coldness.
