Chapter 135 Qili
Chapter 135 Qili
The cook knew she had lost her composure, so after calming down a little, she let Cecilia go.
The cook looked Cecilia up and down and said, "I'm glad you're okay, I'm glad you're okay."
After wiping away her tears, the cook saw clearly that the clothes Cecilia was wearing were very valuable.
"I'm sorry, I should have asked someone to talk to you."
The cook must have guessed it.
The news has gone viral in the city these days.
Although the boss didn't like to hear anything about Babbitt, he had heard some rumors more or less.
What's more, the cook was at the scene that day. Even if she didn't pay attention to what happened at the negotiating table, it was impossible for her to know nothing under the circumstances at that time.
She asked tentatively, "So you are Lord Babbitt..."
Cecilia nodded, removed the magic from the mask, and restored her true appearance. "I'm sorry I deceived you and the boss. This is my true appearance."
The cook stared at Cecilia's face-changing trick in a daze, her mouth a little unable to close, "You, you..."
Cecilia was a little anxious. She had told Babbitt it would take three minutes when she got off the car, but now it had already exceeded three minutes.
"I don't know how to tell you this. Anyway, I'm safe now. Don't worry about you and your boss. I'll find time to go back to the hotel and apologize to your boss."
Having said this, Cecilia released the cook's hand, turned around and walked back to the carriage.
The mask on his face disappeared without a trace when he turned around.
When I turned around, I saw Babbitt's gaze from behind the car curtain.
Nothing to be afraid of.
If he was exposed, he would be exposed. In the short term, Babbitt would not put his life at risk.
After getting on the carriage, Cecilia apologized naturally, "I'm sorry, it took much longer than I thought."
Babbitt's eyes were gentle as water, and he didn't seem to care about the time that had passed. "Is that your friend? Why don't you invite her to stay at the manor for a while?"
Cecilia didn't expect Babbitt to be willing to continue acting.
Since he was still willing to act, Cecilia had no choice but to accompany him. "She still has work to do. I'll invite her again when she's not so busy."
The two fell into silence.
It was not until the carriage arrived at the main building of the manor that Babbitt spoke, "Remember to tell me when you invite her. You can't treat your friend badly."
After getting off the carriage, Babbitt no longer followed Cecilia closely, but asked someone to spread the news that the negotiation table would return tonight.
After Babbitt left the manor, Cecilia also left the manor.
There were about a dozen people following behind, but Cecilia pretended they didn't exist.
She left the manor and headed straight for the small door in the back kitchen of the hotel.
Seeing that the cook was still busy, Cecilia immediately stepped forward to help.
Seeing that it was Cecilia, the cook slowed down her knife, "I have to admire your speed."
Cecilia shrugged. "The negotiation table."
The cook understood and whispered in Cecilia's ear, "The boss doesn't know that you are Lord Babbitt's wife yet. I haven't told him that I found you. You..."
Cecilia understood, a mask appeared on Cecilia's face, and she changed back to her previous appearance.
The cook sighed and said that this face looked more comfortable.
Isn't it? The face created by the mask only had the facial features that Cecilia deliberately controlled, and the rest was all processed automatically by the brain.
The cook felt comfortable, but these facial features were comfortable in her mind.
The boss seldom went to the kitchen, so Cecilia had the opportunity to answer the cook's questions one by one.
"Are you deliberately asking me to take you to Lord Babbitt's negotiating table?"
Cecilia shook her head and then nodded.
"I do have some goals, but..."
No matter what, Cecilia knew she was in the wrong. "Anyway, I'm sorry for deceiving you."
This was not the time to talk. Many people in the restaurant were ordering food, and the cook was too distracted to handle two things at once. She just said, "Just help out first, and we'll settle the bill later."
The cook had a really good personality. Even though she was now officially a duchess, she didn't act respectful to her or dare to speak to her.
Such people are rare in this era.
If the cook is willing to go back to Petra with me...
Cecilia wanted to win him over.
Her strengths in other areas have not yet been seen, but in terms of execution and social skills, the cook is simply impeccable.
In this way, after being busy in the kitchen until almost eight or nine o'clock, the two of them finally had some time to rest and drink some water.
This is not the end yet, there is still work to do such as washing dishes and cleaning.
"You haven't been bullied in the manor these two days, have you?"
Cecilia shook her head, not knowing what kind of bullying the chef was talking about.
But in any aspect, there really is none.
The cook was a little worried and asked, "You and Master Babbitt, you two nights..."
Hecilia laughed.
She had not deceived the cook about her age.
At the age of twenty, one can indeed get married in Anatolia.
But generally speaking, most girls don't get married when they turn 20.
Cecilia didn't know the situation in Huguzhi City, but the cook was not a local and felt that she shouldn't go through this.
"I sleep in two separate rooms."
The cook breathed a sigh of relief, "It seems that he is not as scum as the boss said."
Cecilia already knew most of what the boss had said.
The cook asked with concern again, "You have to go back soon?"
Cecilia nodded.
The cook frowned, "He ran away secretly?"
"That's not the case. When I came out, there were quite a few people secretly following me."
"Didn't he sneak out?"
The cook was shocked. "Then you should go back quickly. If Lord Babbitt finds out that you came to our place, we will be implicated. I will be very upset with the boss for you, and it will be difficult for you to come back to work in the future."
A warm current flows through my whole body.
This is after Cecilia returned to this world.
The first one was someone who cared about her not because of her identity as a princess, but simply because she was Cecilia.
Even Lorian was more or less influenced by her status as a princess or her powerful magic.
But the cook got nothing and saw nothing from herself.
Maybe he has ulterior motives.
But Cecilia still wanted to believe that subconscious reactions could not deceive people.
She hugged herself in the street and the slight trembling of her whole body could not deceive anyone.
Cecilia was pushed out of the kitchen helplessly by the cook. The cook said anxiously, "Hurry up, hurry up. When you get to the manor, find a way to let someone tell me that you are safe. If it's inconvenient, forget it."
Cecilia was driven onto the carriage and looked at the cook, "Qili, take care of yourself and don't worry about me."
