Chapter 654: Big brother's responsibility

[OLD PIERSON RESIDENCE]

"Oh, you're here!" Old Mrs. Pierson happily entered the drawing room, catching Atlas already seated in a chair. Atlas automatically rose from his seat, but she waved for him to sit down.

"Sit, sit! It's alright," Old Mrs. Pierson chuckled while Butler Hubert assisted her in sitting down. "Butler Hubert, prepare some snacks for the young Mr. Bennet here."

Butler Hubert smiled and nodded. "Yes, Madam," he said before politely facing Atlas and bowing. "I'll be back, sir."

Atlas nodded at Butler Hubert, watching the latter leave the drawing room. When the door was closed, Atlas slowly set his eyes on Old Mrs. Pierson.

"He is quite different from the butler at your house, isn't he?" she joked, making Atlas smile and nod.

"It was a little strange because I've always thought everyone was like Butler Jen."

Old Mrs. Pierson waved while laughing. "If I'd had the chance, I would've hired Butler Jen instead. Butler Hubert is quite mischievous."

"I doubt you'd trade him for anyone," Atlas replied politely, watching Old Mrs. Pierson's smile grow subtle.

"I used to be a greedy woman," she said knowingly. "I wouldn't trade Butler Hubert, but that also means I wouldn't hire Butler Jen if I had the chance."
