Chapter 240
There were quite a few people working at the Pascall Villa, and most of them appeared at the dinner table tonight. The butler, two maids, two chefs, two drivers, and Vergil, it was fortunate that the table was large enough, otherwise they wouldn’t be able to fit.RêAd lat𝙚St chapters at Novel(D)ra/ma.Org Only
So this table of dishes was not just made by Nydia alone. The two chefs also made several dishes, otherwise it would not have been possible.
Those who had worked at the Pascall Villa for many years could keenly feel that the male master of the house seemed unhappy, but the female master was very happy.
“Tomorrow, I will start working, and from now on, I’ll have to trouble you all to take care of the two children at home.” Nydia raised her glass. “Today, you can relax and enjoy yourselves.”
Everyone raised their glasses, and although Jesse was not very happy, he still didn’t ruin the mood and raised his glass in acknowledgment before drinking. The two children were drinking soft drinks.
“Mommy, all the dishes are delicious today. I like this fish.” Molly said.
“Eat slowly and be careful of the bones.”
The two chefs were very happy to hear that Molly said that all the dishes were delicious because some of the dishes were made by them. However, they noticed that after trying all the dishes, Jesse only ate the few dishes made by Nydia. Could he really taste the difference? Or was it just a coincidence?
At first, everyone was reserved, but Nydia livened up the atmosphere, and Vergil helped out on the side. It was like a comedy show, and the atmosphere gradually became lively. Of course, the prerequisite was to ignore the warning eyes Jesse gave Vergil from time to time.
Nydia took the opportunity to encourage everyone to toast Jesse.
“Mr. Pascall, I toast to you.” She raised her glass to Jesse.
Jesse raised an eyebrow. “What’s the reason?”
“Thank you for marrying me all those years ago.” Her tone was solemn, her eyes full of countless stars. When she looked at Jesse, he felt as if a star suddenly collided with his heart, making him feel painful but unable to push her away.
No one expected this reason, as they had witnessed the tumultuous years when Nydia disliked marrying Jesse. But now she thanked him for marrying her all those years ago.
Nydia drank the contents of her glass without waiting for Jesse’s reaction, raised her eyebrows, and gestured for Jesse to drink as well.
Jesse naturally drank the rest of his drink, which was twice as much as Nydia’s.
“I toast to you. Will you toast to me as well?” Her eyes were filled with emotion as she looked at Jesse, and her luscious red lips, soaked in red wine, became even more charming, making people want to take a bite.
“Thank you for giving birth to Molly and Tavish,” Jesse said, without being too coy in front of so many people.
The two glasses clinked together, making a crisp sound, as if dispelling all the previous gloom.
The two of them drank their drinks again.
Nydia knew that Jesse could hold his liquor, and she couldn’t get him drunk alone, so she needed someone else’s help.
“Vergil, you’ve been by your boss side for so long. Don’t you have to thank him for his support?”
“Yes! I thank boss for your cultivation and trust. I toast to you!” Vergil was very articulate and knew how to flatter.
Besides, he really wanted to thank his boss. Jesse glanced at Nydia and didn’t say anything, accepting Vergil’s toast.
Did this woman want to get him drunk?
She underestimated his ability to hold his liquor!
But Vergil was very smooth, and immediately toasted again, “I wish Boss and Missus a happy life!”
This blessing made Jesse have to drink again!
As a result, Jesse drank quite a bit of alcohol.
However, he didn’t get drunk easily, so he looked normal, even emitting a hint of coldness.
Nydia wasn’t sure if he was drunk or not, so she made him drink two more glasses just to be safe.
Finally, the dinner was over, and Vergil helped clean up before leaving.
The others also left.
“How are you? Did you drink too much?” Nydia walked over to him and asked. He pursed his lips, his face normal, and even his gaze had a hint of sharpness.
Is it possible that he’s so good at drinking? That’s ridiculous.
“Why did you invite so many people to dinner today?” Jesse’s tone was reproachful.
“Didn’t I say it was to celebrate going to work?”
“What’s there to celebrate about going to work?” Jesse rolled his eyes.
Nydia was stunned.
Did Jesse just roll his eyes?
