Chapter 490: A Dinner Plan
"You must be the only one ma’am who is hosting a dinner for her husband’s ex girlfriend so lavishly." The housekeeper shook her head while making dinner preparations. She knew of the rumors that Mr Sebastian Frost was not working on suppressing and counldn’t help but wonder what kind of a relationship these two shared that the lady of the house would invite a mistress over for dinner.
From what she had observed, their relationship was actually strong, unlike the other wealthy couples where she had worked in the past. In the beginning it had appeared a bit strained but even then, the two people had seemed to care for each other...
Even as she expertly chopped the vegetables, her attention was on Miss Olivia. In the beginning when she had been employed, the lady had been advised bed rest to save her pregnancy. Could it be because of this that Mrs Frost was willing to overlook her husband’s cheating? Many women were expected to look the other way to preserve a relationship.
Olivia glanced at the housekeeper and sighed," You are wrong,Mari. If it had really been one of his ex’s, I don’t think I could have been so calm. But while her name has been linked to Seb, she is not really his ’ex’ or whatever we want to call that."
The housekeeper glanced at Olivia in surprise and could not help but remark," Aren’t you too sure of Mr Frost? I have read about his past. And forgive me for saying so, but men are not known for their self control..."
Olivia shook her head, cutting her off,"No, I made a mistake of not trusting Seb once. Its not like Seb became handsome overnight. He’s been handsome and charming since he was a little kid. Even when I was too young to understand relations, I remember girls and so many mothers all flocking towards him, sighing about how he was going to be a heartbreaker when he grew up."
Mari sighed. She could imagine the boss being like that. Some men had to flirt or at least posture to attract attention. Seb Frost only had to breathe and women would be willing to throw themselved at him. It was a good thing that she was too old for such shamelessness and too lesbian of course.
"So, when I fell in love with him, I had to accept that I would have to be chasing women away all my life." Olivia continued making Mari laugh a bit.
"You’re very smart to think that. So, why are you preparing a dinner instead of a broomstick?" Mari asked making Olivia snort with laughter.
"Because I learned the bitter way, that he can chase them away without me needing to. Even as a teenager, with his hormones raging, he hadn’t succumbed to temptation. Then I woul dbe foolish to think he would do something to hurt me now."
Mari was astounded. So, they had dated in the past as well? Now she was even more curious. No wonder they seemed to share such a deep connection. The couple had a long history. She wanted to ask more when the man himself entered the kitchen. She watched as he immediately walked towards his wife, as if he were a missile who had found his target. Just as she was thinking that she should think of a way to go out and give the couple some privacy, she heard the madam scold him," Seb Frost. Do not steal the food. Leave something for the guest."
