Chapter 387
“Alright!” Ellinor agreed with gusto.
She then turned to the puzzled maid beside her, instructing her to round up Devin and all the household staff.
The maid quickly got the picture and nodded, hustling off to do as she was told.
Before long, Devin, along with all the Blanchet family’s staff, gathered in the living room.
Ellinor announced gravely, “Let me introduce you to Sheila. She’s the gal Mr. Blanchet originally planned to marry and your rightful mistress. The two folks beside her are her parents”
The staff, Devin included, looked stunned. They all wondered if Ellinor was pulling their leg.
Ellinor was dead serious.
“Alright, you guys better start serving your mistress. I’m going to pack my bags and clear out for the real Mrs. Blanchet!”
Upon hearing this. Sheila felt incredibly smug. Those servants who had just ignored her commands now know who she really is, don’t they?
Devin looked a bit lost, trailing after Ellinor upstairs. “Mrs. Blanchet, what on earth is going on?”
Ellinor waved him off, “Devin, just focus on treating them well. We’ll deal with the rest when Mr. Blanchet gets back.”
“Alright.”
After announcing she would pack her things, Ellinor never came back downstairs
Sheila grew impatient, wondering if she was actually packing. Just as she was about to go upstairs, Devin blocked her path. “Sorry, you can’t go up.”
“Even after knowing who I am, you dare to stop me?”
“Your identity has yet to be confirmed by Mr. Blanchet; I’m sorry.” Devin stood his ground.
Every other servant was being respectful, except for this stubborn old man!
Sheila clenched her teeth and rolled her eyes. “Fine, I won’t go up. I’ll be living there sooner or later anyway!
We’re all hungry now. Get the kitchen to make us something nice and remember to use the best ingredients! If you dare cheat us, I’ll tell Mr. Blanchet when he comes back and let him deal with you!”
Devin maintained his composure, “Understood. The meal will certainly meet your expectations.”
If it weren’t for Ellinor’s instructions to treat them well, Devin would have shown them the door by now. He would never let anyone run roughshod over the Blanchet family!
By evening, when Theo returned to the Blanchet family, the Meridozas were comfortably enjoying the Blanchet family’s hospitality.
Arnold had kicked off his shoes and was snoring away on the couch.
Tracy was sitting nearby, watching TV and clipping her nails.
Sheila was sampling an upscale dessert specially made by the Blanchet family’s chef while critically commenting, “Where did they find this chef? Can he even make desserts? This chocolate mousse is not sweet at all! I need Mr. Blanchet to find me a five–star pastry chef to replace him!”
