Chapter 578
Knock, knock!
There was knocking at the door.
The man immediately covered the woman in his blanket as they stayed in bed and stared at the shut door.
“Who is it?”
“Pete, Mom said Britney cto see you?”
The man looked at the woman covered by the blanket and said in a calm but loud tone, “Yes, we need to discuss something about work.”
“That’s fine. Ask Britney to stay for dinner tonight.” After that, Sally left the door that led to her brother’s bedroom.
Hearing the footsteps drifting into the distance, the woman quickly threw away the blanket and got out of bed, wearing her clothes.
She turned around and looked at the man who was still lying on the bed supporting his head with
his hand.
“How bold can you be? Aren’t you afraid others will misunderstand us?”
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtPeter smiled darkly. “It’s best if that happens.”
Einstantly frowned.
She almost forgot that she was Britney.
Britney had been secretly in love with Peter for many years and the Halls liked her as well. They wished that the two of them could get together.
“What, you don’t want to?”
“Not really!” Ecracked. “I’m just dazed, that’s all.”
“Why?”
“Because in the end, there are still people that care about me.”
She then gave him a seductive smile. “I want waffles. You make it.”
With that, she tidied her hair and walked over to the washroom.
Peter was stunned in bed for a few seconds before he took a deep breath. He then wore his
clothes and went downstairs.
“Need help?”
Sally was helping her mother cook in the kitchen. When she heard his voice, she looked at him disapprovingly.
“Mom, I need to talk with my brother. I’ll help you later, okay?”
“It’s alright. I can cook a meal, at least. You two should go have a chat. Oh, right. Tell Britney to come over. Don’t make her feel alienated.”
“Sure, Mom.” Sally pulled Peter out of the kitchen. Smelling the peach blossom scent on him, her heart skipped a beat.
She pulled him into the study on the first floor and asked hurriedly, “Why did you ask Britney to go to your bedroom? It’s not food for her reputation.”
“How so?” Peter smiled warmly.
“I know that you two work the skind of job, but she’s a girl. If you’re going to discuss work, do it in the study. Don’t let her enter your bedroom.”
“Sally.” Peter called out to her earnestly.
“What?”
“Don’t you all like her?”
Sally frowned. She simply thought that the peach blossom fragrance on him was because he was too close to Britney when they chatted about work in the sroom.
She then said earnestly, “Dad and Mom really like her, but didn’t you say you only see her as a younger sister?”
Peter’s expression faltered in an instant as the real Britney appeared in his mind.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmSoft, gentle, and earnest when working. She was the only partner that could help him in his laboratory at full force.
That was why she was completely caught unaware.
He didn’t want to choose her to be Esme’s scapegoat. But they had the sblood type, similar height and weight, and even the slips.
Changing Esme’s DNA information was very risky. He needed to be fully prepared when choosing her scapegoat.
“Pete? Peter?” Sally shoved him.
“Sorry.” Peter massaged his forehead. “My work is getting annoying.”
Sally nodded. “We’re not working on the sthing so I can’t help you.”
“I’ll deal with it.” Peter gave his sister a smile before turning to look at the stairs. “Can you go up and chat with her? I’ll help Mom cook.”
“Sure. Mom toldthat you could cook even when you were younger. Meanwhile, she said I’m
useless in the kitchen.”
“You just need more practice.” Peter then headed to the kitchen.
Sally remembered why Peter was able to cook so well. After their father’s company went bust and their father injured his legs, their mother had no choice but to stay by his side and provide round- the-clock care. Her older brother had to take care of her meals. He had started off as a terrible chef, but was now amazing in the kitchen.
Pete
“What is it?” Peter turned around.
Thank you for taking care ofso patiently when I was little,” Sally said with her eyes red. She
was someone emotional.
“You’re my only sister. Of course, I’d take care of you,” Peter said with a warm smile as he headed to the kitchen, hastening his pace.
