After rebirth she became heartless

Chapter 62

Reducing communication will reduce the possibility of misunderstanding between one another and also reduce the workload as an assistant. Crystal actually agrees with this approach because she thinks it is good to be frugal with words like Lily does; at least it is better than speaking in a sarcastic way.

Saying one thing and thinking another, and being unwilling to express one's thoughts easily, may be fun if it happens less frequently, but if it happens too frequently, it will inevitably lead to misunderstandings and unhappiness between them.

But fortunately, she has found a way to express herself.

In addition to not answering questions, Lily also would not interfere with Crystal's activities. Blue Mountain was like a paradise. It had everything: a private cinema, a swimming pool, a small shopping mall, an outdoor garden, and elegant pavilions. Everything Crystal could think of was available.

As time went on, she felt that there was no need to escape.

Crystal really had some free time.

After the last farce, she no longer has a fixed menu for her three meals a day. She can tell Sister Allen in advance what she wants to eat. Sister Allen is in her fifties. Because she used to be a chef in a big restaurant, she has seen many big scenes. Even in a snow pavilion full of big shots, she is not at all stage fright.

She didn't treat Crystal as a lady, but as a child. After all, Crystal looked to be in her early twenties, about the same age as her daughter.

"My daughter is usually very lazy. She just lies at home during holidays. She is already in her twenties and can't do anything except frying eggs. That day she said she wanted to cook a meal for me. When I saw her,"Sister Allen smiled so hard that her face wrinkled.

"Egg feast."

Crystal also laughed.

"I'm not really good at cooking."

Sister Allen looked at her.

"What can you do as a kid your age? It's good enough that you don't starve yourself to death."

Crystal smiled faintly and showcased her skills to Sister Allen at noon.

Sister Allen initially refused, saying, "Your family invited me to cook for you, so how could you let me cook by myself?" In fact, she said this mostly because she looked down on Crystal's cooking skills. A great chef like Sister Allen hated people who couldn't cook messing around in her kitchen. Not only did they mess up her kitchen, but it was also a nuisance. However, gradually, Sister Allen stopped obstructing Crystal.

Because what Crystal did looked pretty realistic.

She is obviously a teenager, about twenty years old, but she is quite good at flipping the wok and has good basic skills in cutting vegetables. One cannot reach this level without working in the kitchen for more than ten years. Look at her hands, a pair of slender and beautiful hands, but there are calluses on the index finger and thumb.

People who don't work hard all year round won't get calluses here.

Mrs. Allen originally thought that Crystal was a spoiled young lady. After all, Brandon's apple dish gave Mrs. Allen a great shock. She originally thought that even if Crystal's dish was not an apple dish, it would not be much better than her egg dish. But this child's skillful cooking skills made Mrs. Allen stunned.

Crystal prepared four dishes and a soup for lunch. She didn't choose any difficult dishes, as she couldn't cook anything too difficult. She had acquired her cooking skills at the Jones family. The Jones couple lived in financial difficulty, and they required that the cheap ingredients to be cooked deliciously and in large quantities. Later, her cooking skills were developed under the picky taste buds of Brandon. He had no interest in food. He would eat whatever was cooked, and would not eat it if it didn't taste good. Therefore, Crystal could only find different ways to enhance the taste of the dishes.

She helped Sister Allen sit down.

"I heard that you are the chef of a Famous Restaurant. Please give me your comments on how my dish is."

Sister Allen took a sip of the soup, and her eyes suddenly lit up.

"It tastes good. The mandarin ducks will fly away after eating it."

Crystal was stunned.

"You kid, I worked at Family Restaurant when I was young. How come your restaurant has become big Restaurant?"

They both laughed.

...

Crystal has lived for so long without receiving any normal care from elders. The Jones couple doesn't count, Sophia is not competent either, Emma is a half-sister, and then there is Nick... they have only been together for a few days in total.

Although she and Sister Allen were roughly in an employer-employee relationship, she rarely felt a happiness that she had never experienced before when she was with Sister Allen.

After lunch, she drank a cup of tea and read in the study. After only a quarter of an hour, her eyelids began to ache.

Crystal looked at her watch and felt that it was about time.

Sure enough, a few minutes later, there was a light knock on the study door.

Realizing that the door was not locked, a man pushed it open and slipped in.

Ben barged in like a bandit, arrogantly observing every corner of the room, looking like he was about to confront someone.

Compared to Brandon, who is a character with an intimidating presence without getting angry, Ben is much more outgoing. He always looks fearless. Seeing that Crystal seemed to be reading a book, he immediately walked up to her and gazed at her with ill intent.

Crystal turned her chair around, turned her back to the uninvited guest, and continued reading.

Ben:...

"Didn't you ask me to come to you? Don't you have anything to say?"

Ben picked up a chair and sat down.

Crystal raised her head from the book.

"Who, me?"

"When did I call you here, young master? I don't even know you."

Ben coughed twice. "My name is Ben, and Brandon is my brother."

When ordinary people heard Brandon's name, they would either be scared to death or immediately respectful. Ben thought that although the person in front of him was given the title of Madam, she was probably just his brother's lover after he became enlightened. So when she heard his brother's name, she had to respect him even more.

Unexpectedly, Crystal just smiled, said nothing, and ignored him.

Ben felt strange and a little annoyed.

"Now you know who I am, but I still don't know who you are."
