Chapter 386 Do You Have Any Problem?
The next day, the sun rose as usual.
Cierra did not get up late. After all, she was in the Chester family’s residence, so she could not behave casually.
To her surprise, when she and Sarah went downstairs, everyone was there, including Wilson, who was reading a newspaper.
The others looked very easygoing, as if nothing had happened last night.
Even Belle and Cherry were sitting at the dining table obediently, without showing any dissatisfaction.
If it weren’t for the guilty look in her eyes and the hatred she felt from Cherry, Cierra would have thought that what had happened at the dining table last night was just a dream.
She didn’t think much about it. Pretending that nothing had happened, she looked away quietly and continued to help Sarah go downstairs.
“Coincidentally, the dishes have been fried. We can have breakfast when the porridge is ready.”
As soon as they stepped on the floor on the first floor, Eudora came out of the kitchen with ounce bowls and side dishes, and she happened to meet them.
The sound fell in the restaurant, and many people looked at the stairs.
Wilson, who was reading the newspaper through his reading glasses, also looked back and said, “Cici, come and have breakfast. Jaquan said that you like shrimp dumplings. It’s troublesome to make them at home. He brought them on the way back and it’s still hot.”
Only then did Cierra realize that there was a takeaway food box in front of the old man. It was the one she often talked to Jaquan. However, because there were too many people lining up every morning, Cierra was too lazy to get up and only ate a few times.
She didn’t expect Jaquan, who was so busy every day, to be concerned about this.
She sat down on a chair and looked around. She asked, “Did Jaquan go to the company?”
He pushed the lunchbox to Cierra and said casually, “He took me back and left with Will. It’s working hours today. He has to go to work.”
Cierra nodded and opened the takeaway box.
It should have just been delivered since it was still steaming.
The smell spread in the air and the jealousy words came from the opposite side.
“She’s different from others even when she eats breakfast.”
Cherry took her fork and knocked on the empty bowl in front of her.
Her words broke the peace. The conversation between Archer and his father stopped.
When the air was completely quiet,
Ernest’s voice was heard, accompanied by the sound of flipping through the newspaper.
“Jaquan is Cici’s brother. Do you have a problem with bringing her fried dumplings? If you want to blame someone, blare your mother for not giving you a brother or sister.”
Cherry’s face blushed.
After coming out of the kitchen, Eudora didn’t dare to get involved in the dispute on the table. After putting the porridge on the table, she winked at her husband and son, asking them to sit down and eat.
Before the breakfast began, the atmosphere had already become tense. RêAd lat𝙚St chapters at Novel(D)ra/ma.Org Only
However, Cierra was not affected. Wilson had already spoken up for her. If she spoke again, she was afraid that it would make the atmosphere even more awkward.
Mother was still by her side. She had to save some face for the others.
She just thought that Cherry’s words were nonsense.
She took the warm porridge from Eudora and thanked her with a polite smile. “Thank you, Aunt.”
Eudora waved her hand and said, “You’re welcome. If the shrimp dumplings are not enough and there are steamed buns in the kitchen, just tell me what you want. Don’t treat yourself as an outsider. We’re family.”
After the greetings, Cherry knocked on the bowl with her fork again.
Before the tinkling sound disappeared, Wilson suddenly raised his eyes and stabbed straight at Cherry.
“If you want to be a beggar, take the bowl and get out of here. Don’t knock on the table!”
Maybe because they had already offended each other openly, Cherry stopped pretending. “Mr. Chester, as you said, it’s the Chester family’ rules. Why should I abide by your rules?”
“Then get out of here now!”
Wilson also lost his temper. He slammed the table and shouted angrily.
The noise was so loud that it made people’s hearts tremble.
Archer was worried about his father’s health and hurriedly tried to persuade him. “Dad, don’t be angry. Have you forgotten what the doctor said? Why are you arguing with a junior?”
Wilson’s breathing was a little heavy. He looked at Belle and found that there was something unusual about his daughter.
If it were any other time, Belle would have spoken up to protect her daughter a long time ago. She would not have acted like she did today. Her eyes were low and deep, and no one knew what she was hiding.
However, he didn’t have the energy or time to think about it. At this moment, his physical burden calmed himself down.
After a long while, he finally regained his composure.
He couldn’t be bothered to argue with Cherry, so he went straight to the point. “Let’s eat. I’ll read the proportion of the property during the meal. If you want to accept it, just sit here and finish this meal. If you don’t want to accept it, then put down your fork and get out of here. I’ll take it.”
“His donation. That’s settled. If there’s no objection, I’ll take out the contract, and you can take out
your fork.”
Since things had come to this point, how could he have any objections?
What else could he say other than accepting or not accepting to leave?
Cherry thought angrily in her heart. When she saw Cierra’s indifferent gaze, she felt resentful.
She was the daughter of the Barton family. Why was she sitting at the dining table?
She was so full of herself!
Feeling the unfriendly gaze on the other side, Cierra subconsciously looked up and met Cherry’s undisguised black eyes. She was a little stunned.
At the same time, she felt a little puzzled.
Why was Cherry looking at her when they were about to announce the division of the property?
She and Mrs. Barton were just witnesses. It was useless to glare at her even if they wanted to get some money.
Just as she was puzzled, she heard the Clark’s voice.
Grandma, aren’t you going to attend such an important occasion? You usually care about Grandma the most. Why are you so silent today?”
Hearing his words, Belle finally raised her eyes and asked, “What?”
Cherry was also reminded by the situation. What if her grandfather was partial and gave the money that should be given to her and her mother to the Starks?
She did need her grandmother to sit here.
She pushed the clock a little and said in a low voice, “Grandpa is going to announce the assets separation.
