However, since this was the first time Pamela met Aaron and Xante, she did not feel comfortable leaving Corinne

alone with them. As much as she knew everyone was so quiet because of her, she did not plan to leave.

“I overheard you kids say you want to play bridge? Well, that just happens to be my favorite card game! It’s such a

shame I don’t get to play it as often as I like, so I hope you don’t mind letting me join,” said Pamela after sipping her

tea.

Both Aaron and Xante were speechless while Corinne sat still expressionlessly.

Only Annie smiled and said, “Sure! You can team up with me since I don’t know how to play bridge at all. I’ll be

more than happy to learn a thing or two from a veteran like you.”

“No problem! I guarantee you’ll be a pro by the end of the day. So, when shall we start?” asked Pamela.

Everyone looked at each other.

Finally, Corinne said, “Let’s play after lunch. It’d be rude to let my friends play on an empty stomach since they took

the trouble to come all the way here.”

Pamela could tell from Corinne’s tone that she was not happy. She laughed to hide her embarrassment and then

said, “You’re right. Let’s play after lunch. Don’t worry, Corinne. I’ll never let your friends go hungry.”

“Is that so? I thought you Holdens are shameless enough to do anything.”

Pamela’s smile froze. Nonetheless, she got up, saying, “Well, I guess I should head to the kitchen, a treat as I’ll

personally cook for you. Stay here and chat for a while.”

Annie got up too. “Ma’am, allow me to help you.”

Pamela smiled and waved her hand. “There’s no need, Annie. I’ll get the servants to help me. You stay here and

chat with Corinne.”

After that, she went to the kitchen with the maids.

When she walked past Bowen, she gave him a pointed look.

Bowen immediately understood what she was hinting at. He nodded and went over to the living room to stand

behind Corinne.

Pamela might be gone, but the situation was still the same as before. Aaron and the others did not find it

comfortable to talk about what they really wanted with Bowen listening, so they made some small talk instead.

After thinking about it, Corinne suddenly whispered something to Joey, and the boy quickly got down from the sofa,

picked up one of the tea cups, and ran off somewhere.

Turning around, she asked, “Bowen, can you please go make sure Joey doesn’t trip and hurt himself? I’d do it

myself, but it’d be rude to leave my friends. Plus, you wouldn’t want anything bad to happen to Joey too, right?

Think of what Mister Jeremy would do to the servants then.”

Bowen was certainly put in a spot. He looked at Corinne and then at Joey, who was some distance away. One of the

maids was already in pursuit, so after thinking about it, Bowen decided to stay in the living room.

“Ma’am, the maid will take care of Mister Joey. There’s nothing to worry about.”

Corinne’s eyes dimmed. “So what you’re saying is, eavesdropping on me and my friends is more important than

Joey’s safety?”

“No, Ma’am!” exclaimed Bowen embarrassedly. “I’m not eavesdropping on you or your friends. I’m just standing by

here in case you have any orders for me. Also, it’s important for me to make sure your friends have a pleasant

visit.”

Corinne smiled coldly. “If you’re worried about my friends not having a pleasant visit, you wouldn’t have made them

go through the ridiculous security checks.”

“We’re just doing what Mister Jeremy asked us to do…”

Corinne waved her hand. “Fine, whatever. You don’t have to explain it to me. I’m only going to ask you one last

time: Are you or are you not going to help me look after Joey?”
