The Billionaire's Maid Bride novel Chapter 165

"Head to the kitchen and whip up a lunch for two. Pack it up. I'm heading out," Penelope ordered.

Lately, Lucian Lindberg contacted her less frequently, and even when she initiated contact, he claimed to be too busy with work. Penelope was anxious because the child in her belly didn't belong to the Lindberg family. She knew she had to take action quickly!

Allison frowned. Cooking took time, and she needed to hightail it to the hospital.

"Ms. Flanagan, why don't you have Lacey or Linda rustle up the lunch? They’re whizzing in the kitchen."

But Penelope didn't like seeing Allison twiddling her thumbs. "I asked you to do it! You're eating and living under my roof, yet you're not lifting a finger. What's the use of you?"

Margo strutted in and quickly said to Penelope, "Miss, you're pregnant. Don't get your knickers in a twist. Allison, how dare you backtalk? Get a move on!"

Allison bit her lip, swallowed her emotions, and entered the kitchen.

She washed her hands, opened the fridge, and prepped the ingredients.

For lunch for two, she planned to make two plates of pasta with meat sauce, a roasted chicken, a seafood platter, and two servings of porcini mushroom soup.

It looks like she wouldn't be able to make it to Mercy Grove Hospital this morning.

After she finished the dishes, Allison put them into a thermal box. While the soup simmered, she shot a text to Adrian.

"Mercy Grove Hospital is hiring part-timers. I'm thinking of heading there this afternoon."

Adrian quickly replied, "I'm already at Mercy Grove. The security on the sixth floor is tight. Miss, we'll talk more when you get here."
