Nora returned to Xander’s room.

At the thought of the disgusting conditions that Trueman had put forward, she felt as if she couldn’t breathe.

She hadn’t expected Trueman to actually say something like that.

Someone knocked on the door at this point.

Nora turned and looked behind to see the new cook, the one that Harry had just found, walking in.

With her head lowered, the cook gave her an ingratiating smile as soon as she entered, and then said, “I’m here to clear the plates, Miss.”

As it turned out, the plates from Xander’s meal just now hadn’t been cleared yet.

Nora nodded.

The cook had obviously been given a heads-up by Harry, so she did not dare to slight Nora. She came forward and treated Nora as though she was her mistress.

With her head lowered, she walked up to the table. After collecting the plates, she suddenly looked at Nora and asked, “Do you want dessert, Miss? I can make you some.” Nora shook her head. “No need.”

The cook lowered her head and laughed. “Alright. Having something sweet will make you feel better, though.”

When she said that, Nora was taken aback.

She suddenly looked at the cook.

A while later, she finally got up and said, “You’re right. Xander had been tense and scared the whole way here. Let’s make some dessert in the kitchen so that he can have some ready when he wakes up.”

“Huh? I can just make some by myself and bring it up for you.”

“No, it’s fine. Let’s go.”

Nora took the lead while the cook followed behind her holding the plates and cutlery. As soon as the two left the room, sure enough, they saw Trueman leaning against the wall watching them. A heretical smile hung on the corners of his lips as he said, “Make me some too.”
