Chapter 974

The decorations on the first floor were even more luxurious. The open-designed dining room alone occupied a space of a hundred square meters. Seven to eight housemaids stood neatly on two sides of the dining area with their hands crossed and positioned in front of their abdomens as they welcomed Johanna to have her meal.

Johanna merely glanced at them before sitting down and picking up a fork. Then, she slowly ate the bowl of fish chowder.

After consuming two spoonfuls, some images surfaced within her mind, causing her to feel disgusted and nauseous. However, to prevent herself from dying of hunger, she shut her eyes and forced herself to eat.

After finishing the food, Johanna placed the fork back onto the table and went upstairs.
