Chapter 24
Cohen knew that Lucy had taken up a minor in mechanical engineering during college.
He was still surprised that she could repair so many appliances
Ashley, on the other hand, had no idea that her younger sister had.
She had been home for over a year and never mentioned it
But he should consider that even if Lucy had mentioned it before,⠀⠀
It might not have been taken seriously by the Shen family, who might have dismissed it as trivial,
They might have even told Lucy to do or learn something more comventional
Gracie cursed Lucy in her heart.
She thought Lucy had been hiding her skills well while at home, and they didn’t know she could do these things.
No wonder she was so eager to show off on the show, what a schemer
She glanced at the table piled high with dishes.
Compared to the few items they had, she felt both jealous and dissatisfied.
It’s just that she can fix a few appliances. What’s so great about it?
Lucy would be proud for just a day or two.
When there were no more appliances to repair, she wondered what Lucy would do to grab the spotlight.
Gracie stared at the pork and chicken on the table.
“You guys made quite a haul today”
“With so many dishes, do you think you can finish them all?”.
She added with a smile. “It’s hot weather, and our place doesn’t have a fridge. I’m not sure if the meat will last until tomorrow.”
They had spent most of the day picking fruits, but their reward didn’t include any meat.
The stingy family they worked for only gave them a few eggs, some rice, eggplants, cucumbers, cabbage, and potatoes
By saying this, she hoped Lucy and her team would share some of the meat with their team
After all, it would be a waste if the meat went bad.
Of course, if Lucy didn’t share, it would make her seem stingy to the vi
Lucy could see through the hidden meaning in Gracie’s words.
viewen
Gracie was implying that they should share the meat since it might spoil, and was making a bold request,
Lucy smiled and replied, “It won’t spoil.”
“Today, an old lady taught us that if we put the meat in a basket and hang it in the well, it will stay fresh”
Tortunately, we have a well in our yard.”
Hearing Lucy’s words, Gracie choked.
This woman was definitely pretending not to understand on purpose
So she was more straightforward, “With so much meat, you can’t possibly finish it all.”
Lucy raised an eyebrow, “You don’t need to worry about that”
Parker proudly said, “This is money we earned from fixing appliances:
Then he looked at Gracie with a half–smile.
if you want meat, go earn it yourself. Don’t keep eyeing ours”
Even if they used the meat to feed the dogs, they wouldn’t give any to these siblings.
Gracie didn’t expect Parker to be so rude.
jean by them craving meat?
Parker was really going too far.
Didn’t he know she was a wealthy hetess who had eaten all kinds of meat?
She had only learned to cook several meat dishes before

show off a fat while making dinner and shaft the attention from Lacy
But Parker’s words made at seem là
Her eyes turned red, “I didn’t want to mat any, and I’m not eyeing it ”
However, her appearance didnt evoke any sympathy from Parker.
Parker idiled

Gracie had never been publicly humiliata
Especially not by a man she was interested in
She was so aggrieved
her voice carried a hint of tears, “I really

Sering her sister being bullied, Ashley naturally couldn’t stand it.
He glared at Parker, “If you know you’re uneducated, then keep quiet and stop bullying girls,”
Parker laughed dismissively, “Yes, yes, I’m uneducated. I can’t compare to your scholarly sildings.”
“And I just prefer to speak the
Tut don’t accuse me of bullying girls or unfairly labeling
Lucy also supported Parker, “It’s firm for the officials to set fres, but not for the commoners to light lamps. How even speaking the truth is not allowed”
Teo, you’re being too overbearing and double standard.”
She was very happy to train up with Parker to tease Ashley
Ashley was furinis, “Lucy, which side are you on?”
It was too much that his own sister helped to mock him.
Lucy said generously. “Of course, I stand on the side of whoever is right.”
Parker pointed to himself, “Did you hear that? Standing with the side that is i
Seeing the three arguing, the director’s face was about to split into a daisy lika smile.
This was great, always keeping things heated.
Who says variety shows have to be all about team unity?
Or that they need to pretend to be harmonious when they really don’t get along?
Conflicts make things reall
He wasnt worried about Lucy at all.
I always known that Lucy y was a very smart and rational person
e she started in the live broadcast standing against the Green siblings and Colien, she must have her own reasons.
He didn’t think she was trying to get attention by being controversial. He felt there would likely be a twist later,
If he was right, it would be another hot toplo and attract more viewers to the show.
wasn’t just not stopping it, he was eager to sen

I remember Mr. Carter seems to be proficient in four foreign languages, but his cultural level is a bit lacking..]
[Sigh, if only Parker would read more, but he just won’t listen to his mother]
Parker’s fans self–deprecate and subtly put down Leo’s fans.
Then someone raised a question.
[What did Leo mean earlier? Why does he think Lucy should side with him?]
Lucy had previously practiced dance with him alone, which was exposed by the paparazzi
[Their relationship must be complicated.]
[Did they have a secret relationship before? Did Lucy get dumped by Leo?]
[It doesn’t seem like it. From the start of the show, it was Leo who actively approached Lucy
[Lucy looked like she didn’t want to be bothered, not like someone who got dumped.]
[But there must be some relationship or conflict between them.]
[Paparazzi, go investigate]
Among the viewers of the live stream, there was indeed someone who ran a paparazzi company
Seeing the comments, they thought Lucy and Leo’s relationship was worth digging into
If they found something, it would definitely be a big scoop
So they instructed their paparazzi to get moving quickly
