"What's going on? Why is Miss Shell going into the kitchen to wash the dishes?"

"I think the Old Master asked her to do it."

"Are you kidding me? Her friend is still here. I think Old Master has taken a liking to her friend. He has been smiling the entire time. I haven't seen him treat anyone so well before."

"Huh? Do you think that it's because Old Master doesn't like Miss Shell, so he wants to find our Second Young Master a new partner? So..."

When Kimberly heard the comments, her hands suddenly froze. The plate she was holding slipped out of her hand and fell to the ground with a loud clang.

"We should stop talking about it. Miss Shell will be angry. Have you forgotten what happened last time?"

"Let's go."

The group of servants hurriedly left the kitchen.

Kimberly was the only one left in the kitchen. She stood stupidly in front of the sink and stared at the pile of dishes. Suddenly, she felt unpleasant.

Besides, it did not matter whether it was about Maddox or Benedict. It all depended on whether Sylvia was willing to go along with it.

However, a tall figure stepped forward and stopped her before she could start cleaning up. She heard a steady voice boom overhead.
