Chapter 1793 Leading A Servant’s Life
“How long will she be staying?” Selena expressed her dissatisfaction on her face. “I don’t like having strangers in the house.”
“Of course, | won't let her stay here for a long time. | plan to kick her out after three days.” After saying that, Olivia made a
shushing sound. “Don’t be so loud. Why don’t you return to your room? I've placed her in the housekeeper’s room, and your father
is unhappy about that.”
After hearing those words, Selena beceven more upset. She was jealous that her father was being so lovely to Ellen.
The last two days had been extremely exhausting, so Ellen fell asleep as soon as she lay down on the bed. She dreamt of her
grandmother that night, causing tears to flow down her face again.
The next morning, a knock sounded on Ellen's door. She immediately got out of bed and changed her clothes. When she opened
the door, she saw Olivia standing outside.
“Good morning, Aunt Olivia.”
“Ellie, do you know how to make breakfast? Our housekeeper is on leave, so there's nobody in the house to make breakfast for us.”

“Good! Followto the kitchen!” Olivia guided Ellen to the kitchen and took out spasta, vegetables, and eggs so that Ellen
could make breakfast for the entire family.
By the tConnor and Selena woke up, there was already a large bow! of spaghetti on the table. Moreover, Ellen had prepared
several beautiful poached eggs to go with the meal. Olivia looked at the sight and sneered silently. So, it’s true that children from
poorer families learn to take care of their families from a young age.
Although her daughter did not know how to cook or make any kind of breakfast, she firmly believed that her daughter would marry
into a family that would not require her to cook. This way, her daughter's hands wouldn't be dry or cracked.
She grudgingly praised Ellen in front of her husband. “Connor, look! Ellie woke up early in the morning just to prepare breakfast for
us! It looks absolutely delicious!”
Connor exclaimed in surprise, “Ellie, why did you wake up so early to prepare breakfast?”
“l... I woke up early, so | decided to make breakfast.” Ellen did not dare to tell him that Olivia had woken her up to cook breakfast.
Olivia immediately beckoned Ellen. “Come, Ellie! Let's sit down and have breakfast together!”
Seeing that Selena had not greeted Ellen, Connor turned toward her and scolded, “Lena, why didn’t you greet Ellie?”
“Good morning, Ellen,” Selena greeted in a perfunctory manner.
“Good morning, Selena,” Ellen greeted in return.
During breakfast, Selena began to tell her mother about her plans for the day. In the morning, she planned to head to the spa for a
massage. Then, she was going shopping with her friends in the afternoon followed by a gathering with her classmates at night.
Just listening to her schedule for the day was enough to make anybody envious.
Connor listened to his daughter's schedule and suddenly blurted out, “Lena, why don’t you bring Ellie with you? You can show her
around.”
Selena froze in the middle of eating her noodles “Dad, Ellie is not acquainted with my friends. How can she hang out with us?”
“That's right! Lena and her friends are students who cback from studying abroad. She won't fit in.” Despite expressing her
discontent, Olivia did not forget to boast about her daughter's superiority at the stime.
Ellen blushed furiously and told Connor, “Uncle Connor, I'll just rest at htoday.”
After pondering for a moment, Connor did not force the matter. “Alright then. Have a good rest at htoday, and we'll visit the
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmcemetery together tomorrow.”
He had an appointment with a friend after breakfast. Since he was also going out, only Olivia and Ellen would remain at home.
The truth was that Olivia originally had an appointment. It was just that she felt uneasy about leaving Ellen at halone. What if
she lost something important? It had to be said that both she and her daughter's jewelry were very expensive.
That was why she decided to stay at hand watch Ellen.
“Ellie, | hurt my wrist recently and can’t do the laundry. Can you help us with the laundry?”
“Okay, Aunt Olivia.”
“Ellie, the floor looks a little dirty. The mop is in the storeroom. Can you mop the floor, please? Don’t forget to mop the staircase
while you're at it. It's getting dusty.”
Ellen was treated like a servant and ordered around by Olivia to do various chores.
Olivia also instructed Ellen to cook lunch at noon. After Olivia finished her lunch, she relaxed in front of the television as though she
were a queen.
As for Ellen, after she finished doing those chores, she was so tired that she fell asleep in the afternoon. It was at this moment that
she received a phone call from her colleague. Their boss was laying off semployees since business at the cafe was not doing
too well. As she happened to be on leave for the week, he decided to terminate her employment immediately.
