The new cake was finally ready.

A servant mentioned that the cake had been ready for a while.

Niall asked, "Why didn't you bring it up earlier?"

Hattie said, "Mr. White, I told them not to. I saw you all were busy."

Violeta, sitting at the dining table while eating her food, remarked, "Were you waiting because you saw my brother was busy, or because you wanted to stay here longer?"

"Violeta, what do you mean? It's storming outside. Do you want me and my brother to go out and get struck by lightning?"

Violeta ate a small piece of steak, blinked, and said sarcastically, "Oh, then why did you come? Who invited you?"

Hattie gritted her teeth, wishing she could slap Violeta's smug face.

Niall intervened, "Alright, Vio. That's enough."

Violeta knew Hattie still had more tricks up her sleeve, so she stayed quiet.
