Chapter 273: Chapter 270: The Genius Gourmet

"Are you talking about that? My brother transferred his personal investment to your name. Didn’t he tell you?"

Elliana Lyle was taken aback. Norman Bennett really hadn’t mentioned this to her.

Looks like she’ll be getting a big sum at the end of the year!

After hanging up the phone, she got out of bed and pulled open the curtains, only to find that it was already a bit dark outside.

Strange, there was just sunlight streaming through the gaps, but now the weather looks like it’s about to rain.

Whoosh―――!

As she was lost in thought, the rain had already started pouring down, as if someone was furiously pouring water from a basin.

Looks like a heavy rainstorm.

No idea how long it will last; she was thinking of going out today.

Looks like she won’t be able to go out; she hates going out in the rain.

"Lana, Lana."

Walking towards the door, she called out twice, but it seemed she was the only one home.

"Lana?"

She walked to the living room and tentatively called out, but it confirmed she was the only one in the house.

Maybe she went out to buy something.

After all, it’s almost eleven, time to buy groceries for lunch.

Speaking of lunch, she was actually getting a bit hungry now.

After rummaging in the refrigerator for a while, she found... live crabs?

They seemed still alive, kept by Lana in the middle compartment of the fridge.

Each one looked quite large, feeling almost as big as her face.

That might be a bit of an exaggeration.

Looks like there’ll be crabs to eat today.

She sent a message to Lana and quickly received a reply.

Lana: "Ma’am, you’re awake. I’ll be back right away."

PurrPurr: "Where did you go? Grocery shopping?"
