chapter 781-790

“Ahem! It’s not like that. I just want to invite you over to thank you. My wife wishes to meet and thank you, too.” After thinking about it, Corinne asked, “When should I be there?” “Anytime you like.” I ‘Lucas will be at work in the daytime, and Anya will be too busy taking care of Joey, so… might just have a chance to dig up some information about my mother’s disappearance,’ thought Corinne.

“Okay, Grandpa Cedric. Since you insist, I’ll drop by your place today. But you don’t have to thank me for saving your life, okay? Let’s just treat this as me wanting to spend some time with you.

“Okay! You have my word!” said Cedric happily. “I’ll send the car to pick you up later.” “Sure. Thanks.” After hanging up the phone, Corinne saw the message Jeremy sent her earlier in the morning.

[Remember to have your breakfast after you wake up.] Corinne smiled and typed, [Quit being a nagger, Mister!] Corinne went to the bathroom to wash up before changing into some casual clothes. Then, she went downstairs and saw all of the mess from last night had been cleaned up.

Bowen respectfully walked up to her. “Good morning, Ma’am. Your breakfast is already on the table. Please eat it while it’s still hot.” Corinne nodded. While walking toward the dining room, she asked, “Who cleaned up the mess last night?” “It was Miss Francine, Ma’am. She didn’t sleep and spent the whole night wiping the floor clean and picking up the broken vase pieces. To be honest, I was shocked to see the downstairs so clean when I came in. But, this being her first time cleaning, she did miss a few spots, which I’ve asked the cleaners to go over.” There was nothing in the world one could not learn if one put their heart into it.

The fear of being scolded by Jeremy must have served as a strong motivation for Francine to figure out how to clean up the mess. Corinne was impressed.

“Where is she now?” “She only went back to her room early in the morning. Poor thing must be exhausted,” replied Bowen.
