Cutie, Please Marry Me Again (Jenna and Hansen) novel Chapter 247

"What is Julian's job?" Jenna asked as she thought for a brief moment. However, she wasn't able to recall anything about Julian.

"Oh, she's responsible for washing Grandma's clothes and serving her meals. Besides, she'll help Meroy serve light refreshments sometimes, and she's also in charge of the cleanliness of Grandma's bedroom. Grandma didn't like many people going in and out of her room, but Julian was handpicked by her long ago since she was deft and efficient in work. Meroy would be with Grandma most of the time but there will be times when she's unavailable too. When she's resting, for instance. Julian will stand in for her when those times come, that's why people don't normally come across her. What's more, Meroy would be here during holidays or celebrations, therefore most people don't recognize Julian." Sabrina was able to explain everything eloquently since she was clear with the situation.

Jenna felt chills down her spine upon hearing this.

Julian played an important role in the household. Although she wasn't always seen with Vivian like how Meroy was, it was as easy as pie if she wanted to attempt something.

To put it bluntly, she was the closest person to Vivian in secret. But, how did Minnie come in contact with her?

Despite staying in Richards Manor for more than a year, Jenna did not recognize Julian at all. Not to mention that she was much loved by Vivian and she would stop by occasionally as well.

However, Minnie was very different. Not only was she an outsider, but she also got the chance to visit Ink Garden recently solely because she followed Aria everywhere. How could she possibly come in contact with someone so important to Vivian? Besides, it seemed that they were unusually close.

With doubts in her heart, Jenna took a few glances at them again before following Sabrina to the Ink Garden office.

They dealt with the issues in the office all morning. With Sabrina's assistance, it was not a difficult task. At noon, Sabrina answered a call and went out right away.

"Meroy, is Grandma okay now?" Jenna went to Vivian's lounge wilfully. Meroy was reading the newspaper when she saw Jenna walking in. She stood up hurriedly to welcome her.

"Oh, she's all right," Meroy replied with a smile.

"That's good to hear." Jenna smiled. "Thank you for your efforts, Meroy."

"Young Madam, it's my job after all. You're thinking too highly of me." Meroy smiled warmly as she invited Jenna to sit. "Young Madam, you've been busy all morning. Sit down comfortably for now, please. I will ask someone to serve food for you."

Jenna thought for a while before she nodded and said, "Sounds great. Just ask the kitchen to prepare some simple dishes."

Right away, Meroy placed a call.

After the two sat down, Jenna told Meroy about the current situation of Ink Garden in detail. She knew she would tell Vivian when she had the opportunity.

After only a while, someone knocked on the door.

"Please come in," Meroy said lightly.

After a while, the door opened. A young woman in Richards Group's workwear walked in with a tray carrying four dishes and a pot of soup.

Jenna looked at her, taking in her fair complexion and pretty face. She looked neat with steady gestures, her eyes emanating cleverness.

Right away, she was acknowledged by Jenna.

People who can be chosen by Vivian were indeed better than ordinary people.

"Excuse me, what's your name? I apologize for not knowing everyone here in Ink Garden even though I'm managing the household now, it's such an embarrassing matter. Perhaps, was there any inconsideration throughout your stay here? That would be unpleasant, you're taking care of Grandma after all," Jenna asked the woman with a light smile.

The woman held the tray in one hand skillfully as the other hand served the dishes on the marble table in front of them. This was usually where Vivian and Meroy usually dine on.

After serving the dishes, she took the plates and cutlery out of the disinfection cabinet and arranged them in a swift motion. She then took out warm towels and handed them to Jenna and Meroy by using metal tongs. When she heard Jenna's question, she startled for a brief moment before replying with a humble smile, "Young Madam, my name is Julian. I normally do rough work in Ink Garden and I usually take care of Vivian's daily meals only."

"Oh, it's certainly not rough work to take care of Grandma's diet. I did not know that Grandma has such a young and beautiful lady beside her, and I don't even know your name previously. What a shame. Perhaps, will you join us with the meal today and enlighten me about everything? There are many things in Ink Garden that I am unfamiliar with, feel free to give me some advice in the future." After Jenna heard that her name was Julian, she smiled while inviting her cordially.
