Chapter 146 “Get Up!”
When the sun rose, the beams of light came through the slits of the window curtain to come into the room.
But the two that were on the bed were still laying there with happy smiles on their faces.
Both of them were completely naked, but they didn’t care at all as they enjoyed each other’s embrace.
The woman was in the man’s arms, though she was taller than him which made it look awkward. Especially the way that their feet peeked out of the blanket…or rather, there were only a single pair of feet that peeked out.
It was the slender and delicate feet of a woman.
The feet of the man didn’t reach that far.
Still, they were happy just laying there like that.
That was until there was someone that suddenly barged into the room.
This person didn’t hold back at all as they pushed the door open and ran into the room, almost as if they were expecting to catch them doing something bad.
However, when they saw the two of them just lying there on the bed still sleeping, there was a hint of disappointment that appeared in their eyes.
Still, they didn’t hold back at all since there was also a hint of annoyance in those eyes.
So they took a deep breath before shouting, “GET UP!”
As soon as this was shouted, the two of them on the bed immediately jumped up and looked around themselves, trying to find where this loud sound was coming from.
Then when they saw Cecilia standing there in front of the bed looking down on them, both of them revealed bitter smiles.
Cecilia just stood there looking down at them with narrowed eyes still before saying, “Look at the two of you. The sun is already up and you’re still sleeping away like it’s nothing. Must be nice not having anything to do.”
The two of them revealed awkward looks again.
But it was then that Baroness Rose also came into the room.
She was carrying a tray that seemed to have something on it. When one looked closely, they would see that it was a bunch of food that was on this tray, along with a glass of something that seemed to be juice.
She ignored Cecilia who was just standing at the end of the bed glaring at them and she moved to the side that Zwein was sitting on.
I couldn’t help being surprised as I watched her smooth out the bed blankets and then place the tray in front of me. I looked at her with a doubtful look after she had finished setting it all down.
Baroness Rose just said with a smile, “You shouldn’t skip breakfast.”𝐍𝑶𝐯𝔢𝒍𝓷ℯxt.𝓒𝔬𝕞
Once again, I couldn’t help being taken aback when I heard this. But after taking some time to recover, I said with a smile, “Thank you.”
I always kept discovering more and more different sides to Baroness Rose, but I had never complained about a single side of her. Every single side of her was endearing in its own way and I found myself lucky that I had her as my wife.
However, there was one problem though…
There was only one portion of breakfast that had been brought over.
Haley just sat there awkwardly as she looked down at the tray in front of me.
It wasn’t that she had expected to be brought breakfast in bed like I had been, but she felt like she was the only one that was excluded from this as the newcomer.
Baroness Rose noticed this and turned to Haley. Then to everyone’s surprise, she revealed a sharp look and said, “Did you think that you would also get to be treated the same? You are a concubine, so you should know your place.”
Both of our chins dropped down when we heard this, but it was clear that Haley was the one that had been affected the most.
After all, what Baroness Rose had said was the truth.
Baroness Rose was the main wife and Haley was just the concubine, so to be expected to be treated properly was just asking too much.
So Haley was about to awkwardly get out of bed and find some clothes to put on, but Baroness Rose stopped her before she could do that.
She suddenly burst out in laughter before saying, “Did you really think that I would act that way?”
All of us just either sat there or stood there with confused looks on our faces as we didn’t know how to respond.
Luckily for us, it was just a rhetorical question in the end and Baroness Rose never expected an answer in the first place.
She went over to Haley’s side of the bed and pushed her back down before saying, “Just wait a minute, I’ll bring yours over now.”
Hearing this, Haley just nodded in a daze.
It didn’t take her long to come back with a tray that was the same as the one in front of me. The two trays even had the same dishes, which showed that they had been prepared at the same time.
Baroness Rose came over and placed it in front of Haley with a smile before she started helping the two of us eat.
During this time, Haley just obediently listened to everything that Baroness Rose said. However, if one looked closely at the look in her eyes, it was almost as if…she was scared of Baroness Rose.
That was because just now…when Baroness Rose had said that she was just joking, Haley saw a look in her eyes that didn’t seem like it was a joke. It really seemed like she was serious about what she had said.
Haley as a merchant was a good judge of character since that was what she had to do as a merchant. But right now, she just couldn’t see through Baroness Rose…
So she couldn’t help being scared of her since she was able to hide herself this deeply.
Haley made a vow that she wouldn’t ever anger Baroness Rose…
Even if she seemed gentle, if she ever lost control of herself…Haley might not even know what would happen to her.
Just like this, the four of us shared breakfast together since Baroness Rose had prepared breakfast for everyone in the first place.
