Go After My Ex-wife

Chapter 247 Demi

"What kind of work is Demi in charge of?" Belle really didn't remember much about this Demi, so he

couldn't help but ask.

"She is responsible for washing Madam's clothes, serving three meals, sometimes serving some tea

and such when Ruth is not around, of course the hygiene of Madam's bedroom is her job. Madam does

not like too many people entering her room, but she work fast, so Madam is fond of her. Usually it is

basically Ruth who stays by her side, but Ruth more or less has her own business, and will take some

rest. Then it's Demi takes her work, so usually you don't see her." Rosa already knew very well and

explained in details.

Belle was shocked to hear this.

Demi's role was important. She couldn't stay by Grandma's side like Ruth, but if she wanted to do

something, it would be as easy as pie.

To put it bluntly, she was the person who was secretly closest to Sophia, but how did Hanna hook up

with her?

She had spent over a year in Harvey Mansion without knowing Demi, who was someone Grandma Content protected by Nôv/el(D)rama.Org.

liked and she would came over occasionally.

Hanna was an outsider and even when she came to Ink Garden, she had to followed Lexie in. How did

she know such an important person around Sophia?

With doubts in her heart, she glanced at the two before walked to the office with Rosa.

After dealing with family matters all morning, with Rosa's assistance, she finished her work smoothly. At

noon, Rosa answered a phone call and then went out.

"Ruth, is grandma okay now?" Belle went to Grandma's room, where Ruth was reading the newspaper.

When she saw Belle walk in, she stood up to greet her.

"She is okay." Ruth replied with a smile.

"That's good." Belle smiled, "Thanks for your hard work, Ruth."

"It is my job." Ruth smiled gently and hurriedly let her sit down, "Mrs. Harvey, you have been busy all

morning, sit down , I will ask someone to bring food here."

Belle nodded and said, "Okay, just ask someone to bring some dishes."

Ruth picked up the phone.

After the two of them sat down, Belle told Ruth about the current situation in Ink Garden, knowing that

she would tell Madam about it when she had the chance.

Only a moment later, there was a knock at the door.

"Come in." Ruth spoke indifferently.

Not long after, the door opened and a young woman dressed in Harvey's overalls walked in with a tray

carrying four dishes and a soup.

Belle looked towards her, only to see that she was fair-skinned, quite beautiful, competent and calm.

Those who could be fond of Sophia were indeed more outstanding than the ordinary people.

"May I have your name? I'm so sorry, I'm now in charge of the family, but I don't even know the names

of the people in Ink Garden yet. "Belle smiled lightly and asked towards the woman.

That woman carried the tray in one hand, and with the other hand she skillfully took the four dishes and

one soup off the plate and placed them on top of the table, which was usually where Grandma and

Ruth usually ate.

After placing the food, she took out bowls from the cabinet, took out hot towels and handed them to

Belle and Ruth. When she heard Belle's question, she froze and said with a modest smile, "Mrs.

Harvey, my name is Demi, I do some menial work in the Ink Garden, and usually just take care of

Madam's food and living. "

"It is menial work to take care of Grandma’s food and living. I didn't know there was such a beautiful

young lady around Grandma. It is a pity that I didn't even know your name. How about we have dinner

together. I am not familiar with Ink Garden, I'd like to ask you to give me more guidance." When Belle

heard that her name was Demi, she smiled friendly and invited her to dinner warmly.

Demi was flustered, not expecting Mrs. Harvey to be so polite to her, so she said with a smile, "Mrs.

Harvey, I'm just a servant, I really don't dare to eat at the same table with you. We are lucky to have

this job at Harvey Mansion, so if you have any orders, you can let me know. As long as I know, I will

definitely say everything."

She spoke clearly and her mind was flexible, she was really a capable person. Belle nodded.

"Mrs. Harvey, they all have staff canteens, the food there is not bad, I was originally going to eat there

as well, but because Madam needs my help, so I stay here. Please don’t make it difficult for her, if you

need help, you have ask her to come." Ruth said with a smile.

"Since so, I won't force you." Belle could only smile, picked up the silver chopsticks on the table. She

looked around and asked somewhat strangely, "This is silver chopsticks, right?"

"Exactly." Ruth laughed, "Everything Madam uses is still from the past, not to mention these silver

chopsticks, even the bowls Madam uses are silver bowls. These are still the rules set by the old master

when he was alive."

"Oh," Belle pondered, wondering if Madam was wary, or if it was just habit.

"Mrs. Harvey, Ruth, I'll go out first, I will come back to clean up when you've finished eating." Seeing

that there was nothing more for her to do here, Demi said.

"Alright, thank you." Belle smiled at her and nodded.

Demi turned around and walked away.

"Mrs. Harvey, are you doubting Demi?" When Demi had left, Ruth asked in a small voice.

Belle smiled and asked, "Ruth, how is Demi's usual character?"

Ruth said with a sigh, "Mrs. Harvey, the people Grandma chose should not have any problems with

their character. But people change after a long time, and people's hearts are often unpredictable."

Ruth knew that the reason why Belle asked about Demi must have her deeper meaning, in fact she

had also thought about this, but she couldn't find any evidence, and she couldn't believe that Demi had

the guts to do such a nasty thing, after all, they were highly paid, and Sophia would reward her, so

there was no reason at all to do such silly things.

"Demi is a local, right?" Belle asked in a pensive voice.

"Yes, she is a local, she was quite a smart girl, only because her family was not very well off, she

dropped out of school early and worked here. With this job, she was ecstatic and cherished it very

much, she worked hard and was thrifty, so she was valued by Madam and was kept around

specifically." Ruth explained.

Belle nodded and pondered. Such a person could not reasonably do something so harmful to Sophia,

not to mention Ruth's disbelief, even she had suppressed her suspicions of her when she heard this.

"In the last few years, she's been unsuccessful in finding a match, so she's hiding things in her heart

and her character became weird." Ruth let out another sigh and further explained, "She and I have

been around Madam for years, so I know her well."

"She is pretty, how can’t she find a boyfriend?" Belle asked, somewhat curiously.

"She is arrogant, though she is a just a maid. She's already twenty-eight years old now, and I heard

some time ago that a man thought she is a poor family!" Ruth sighed.

"But she is a good-looking girl, and her salary is not bad in Harvey Mansion. "Belle was puzzled.

"She has a find an official or a man with achievement, but that kind of man look down at her. There are

many good-looking girls. She is highly paid, but she is after all a maid, plus her family is poor. When

she gets older, it's even harder to find a boyfriend." Ruth analyzed seriously.

Women would like to marry a rich man, this was a popular trend, and there was nothing wrong with it.

As the daughter of the deputy mayor, Lexie was still trying to squeeze into the Harvey family as Mrs.

Harvey.

The wifes of the rich family reported in the A City's entertainment press have envied the eyes of many

women.

There are only a few women who could marry into the gentry, but there are many underground lovers,

such as concubines, and it is due to these women's love of fame.

The young ladies and young masters of the gentry may have been born to concubines kept by the men

of the gentry, although they live a glamorous life, the hardships involved and the inheritance of property

in the future may be unknown to outsiders.

Belle fell into silence.
