Chapter: 1263
Lila knocked on the door again.
"sir?"
While Lila was contemplating opening the door and entering the room, the door suddenly opened.
It was not Victor but Rachel who appeared at the door.
Surprised, Lila called out, “Miss Bennet!"
“Good morning, Lila," Rachel said in a soft voice. Perhaps because she had just awoken, her voice sounded a little lazy.
"Good morning." Lila was in a daze. She couldn't believe this.
"Rachel didn't sleep in her room last night? Why is she in Victor's room now?' It didn't look like Rachel got up early to go to his room to see him. It seemed that she slept in the guest room last night.
Lila, however, knew her bounds. Rachel was the homeowner. Victor was the guest. She was a house help and she had no right to ask her about these things.
"Miss Bennet, has Mr. Sullivan's fever gone?" Lila asked after a while.
"Yes, his fever has gone down," Rachel answered.
"Oh, good!" Lila breathed out a sigh of relief.
"Miss Bennet, what would you like for breakfast? I'll go downstairs and prepare it for you."
“I'd like some millet porridge."
“Okay.”
After breakfast, the doorbell rang.
Lila walked out of the kitchen and saw Rachel, who was texting Andy in the dining room. She said, "That should be Mr. Jimenez."
Andy had been busy with his case these days. Knowing that the Bennet
Group's welfare housing project was about to start, he took the time to send Rachel a message to ask about the progress of the project.
He sent the message last night. Rachel was asleep at that time and she was unable to reply promptly.
As Rachel was sending her message, she overheard Lila.
“Roger? Did he say he was coming today?"
“Oh, my God! How could I forget it?" Lila slapped her forehead.
“Mr.
Jimenez called early this morning. He said he would come here today.
