Chapter 1811 Steal The Spotlight
Chapter 1811 Steal The Spotlight
"You're telling me Yuliana brings something back every time she visits
Cassandra?" Cecilia was taken aback.
Charlotte nodded. "Yeah."
A vague but unsettling feeling crept into Cecilia's heart. "Today, find a way to take the food she brought and get it tested at the hospital."
"Got it." Charlotte had also realized the severity of the situation.
That night, Yuliana arrived with a plate of scrambled eggs. "Aunt Queenie, try this.
I made it myself. Didn't you say before that you wanted to try scrambled eggs with salmon?"
Queenie chuckled. "Yuliana, you've been so thoughtful lately. Thank you."noveldrama
"There's no need to thank me. I just want you to be happy every day." Yuliana crouched beside Queenie, holding out the plate. "Here, let me feed you."
As Cecilia walked in and saw this, she acted as if she hadn't noticed and deliberately bumped into Yuliana. With a crisp crash, the bowl hit the floor, shattering into pieces, the eggs spilling everywhere.
"Oh no, I'm so sorry, Yuliana," Cecilia apologized right away. "I felt a little dizzy just now and accidentally bumped into you."
Yuliana's face darkened, her brows furrowing. Queenie couldn't help but ask, "Ceci, what's wrong? Are you okay? Do you need to go to the hospital?"
Cecilia shook her head. "No, I just stood up too fast, and my vision blurred for a second."
"Oh, as long as you're all right." Queenie then turned to comfort Yuliana. "Yuliana, Ceci didn't do it on purpose. Don't be mad, all right?"
Yuliana had been holding a grudge against Cecilia for a long time, but in front of Queenie, she had no choice but to keep up appearances. "It's fine. I'll cook for you again tomorrow," she said before getting up.
Charlotte immediately stepped forward with the servants. "Mdm. Queenie, why don't you all rest in the living room? I'll clean this up."
"All right, thank you."
Queenie and the others moved to the living room. Seizing the opportunity, Charlotte collected a sample of the eggs and rushed it to the hospital for testing that same night.
In the living room, Alphonse and Bethany, puzzled by the commotion, turned to Queenie. "What happened just now?"
Queenie explained everything truthfully.
Bethany frowned. "Yuliana, since when do you know how to make scrambled eggs?"
Yuliana had always been the type to avoid chores, let alone cooking. And now, all of a sudden, she was making scrambled eggs and meals.
"Grandma, just because I didn't know how before doesn't mean I can't learn now, right?"
Bethany chuckled. "Hah! That's true. Learning to cook is a good thing."
Yuliana sat beside them, chatting and keeping them entertained.
Watching her from across the room, Cecilia found it hard to believe that Yuliana would actually try to harm Queenie. She had been observing her closely for days. Yuliana's concern for Queenie seemed genuine. If she were really plotting something, what was hermotive?
Cecilia could only hope she was overthinking it, that there was nothing wrong with the food Queenie had already eaten.
"Granny, Granddad, you should get some rest early tonight. Luke and Gabe are coming over tomorrow," Cecilia said with a smile.
Alphonse and Bethany lit up with excitement. "Really? That's wonderful! We finally get to meet our little great-grandchild!"
When the children had first arrived. they'd caught a cold and hadn't been well enough to see anyone. Now that they were better, they could finally meet the elders.
The next morning, Elena brought the two little ones over. As soon as they arrived, Elliot let out a dramaticsigh. "Hmph! Younger kids always steal the spotlight."
Jonathan patted his shoulder. "No need to be jealous of your own brothers."
"Fine."
Without another word, Elliot followed Jonathan back to the room. Meanwhile, outside in the living room, Charlotte called Cecilia over.
