When Natalia was just a little kid, there was this one time when Clair wouldn't feed her. She got so hungry she was crying up a storm, even fainted in her room. Only then did Clair let someone bring her food. Ever since then, Natalia behaved like a total angel.
The butler knew all about it, but he didn't ask questions. He just answered coldly: "Yes."
......
At Cornelia's place.
She had breakfast ready and everyone was waking up one after another. After everyone had freshened up, they moseyed into the kitchen. Some helped serve the soup, and some brought the bread to the table.
Tanisha even bought burgers, pancakes, sandwiches and whatnot from an breakfast joint, making the breakfast spread pretty diverse.
Patricia felt kinda embarrassed. She had come to Rosenberg to lend a hand like everyone else, but she didn't actually do a thing. Breakfast was all thanks to Cornelia.
Seeing Patricia looking a bit off, Cornelia asked her, "Patricia, didn't sleep well last night?"
Patricia replied, "Granny Luisa and I slept just fine, but you stayed up all night and had to prepare breakfast. I didn't help at all."
Cornelia chuckled, "I just made some soup and prepared some bread, but the rest of the breakfast was bought by Tanisha."
Patricia responded, "Don't make excuses for me. After we eat, I'll do the dishes."
