The next day, Yohan waited for Hobbit to show up in front of him. He did not even consider the possibility that Hobbit would not show up for work today and he would be kept hanging.

But Hobbit suppressed Yohan\'s expectations by showing up five minutes early than the appointed time with proper precautions in place. And Hobbit was the first person to arrive in the kitchen.

"Tsk, look at this place. It had become such a mess. This would have never been possible had the head cook been alive"

Hobbit sounded as if he was in pain when he said that. His eyes were moist with tears but he did not shed them. He walked over toward the center of the kitchen and looked around.

Then, he walked toward the storage cabinet and examined the contents. He did not look happy with what he saw and his eyes flashed with contempt. From that, Yohan knew that he had chosen the right person for the right job.

"Now I understand why you came to me of all people for help. This place is a mess and not prepared to receive guests tomorrow. I will need to make a list of everything we would need and spend the day here. But my tasks-"

"Will be taken care of by someone else. As long as you are in charge of the kitchen, I will ask someone else to perform your duties and even talk with Lady Rui about you."

Hobbit looked satisfied after Yohan finished speaking. He knew how close Yohan was to lady Rui and how influential he was as well.

Hobbit might not like the fact that Yohan would meet Lady Rui but this was the only chance for Hobbit to get recognized by the girl of his dreams. He would even be willing to accept foreign help if it meant that Lady Rui will look at him.

"Then, I will accept your help this time. Now hurry up and leave because there is a lot I need to get finished in here and your presence here is not helping me much."

Hobbit was thankful for Yohan but that did not mean he liked Yohan as well. He wanted Yohan out of the kitchen so that he could finish his work and that was what he did - throw Yohan out.

Once Yohan was out of the kitchen, he could not help but let out a small laugh. Hobbit had behaved just like Yohan thought he would. It was nice to know that things were going according to your plan.

"You went through with this and recruited Hobbit for the kitchen. Are you not afraid that the head butler would use this opportunity to mess up the guests\' food? After all, he would have easy access to the kitchens now."

Hans questioned the next time he met Yohan. His concern was valid as well since the head butler was rather goal-oriented.

"I know this is a risk, but that is why I am doing this. I hope that the head butler tries to pull some kind of trick with the food. It would make my life and my plan easier."

Yohan might not look like he had a plan but he had several plans brewing inside his brain.

As long as the head butler behaved like Yohan expected him to and try to cause trouble for him, Yohan would be able to use him. It would be even better if Hobbit was involved in this planning.

There was no better way to create a wall between Hobbit and the head butler than for the head butler to interfere with Hobbit\'s work. And Yohan had seen it, the way Hobbit had responded to the kitchen.

The other teen was taking his responsibility seriously. He would not be able to forgive the head butler this easily.

Yohan hurried toward Lady Rui\'s room, waiting to discuss what happened with her. There was much he had to unpack right now.

He knocked on the door and Lady Rui opened it. She looked like a doll, all dressed up in girls and her hair done right. He looked cute but not sad at all.

"My! One of your best servants just died and you don\'t look any sadder than you should. Who knew that Lady Rui was such a cold-hearted person?"

Yohan teased as he took a seat in front of Lady Rui and served her tea. Lady Rui looked at the tea for a second before her gaze snapped up to look at Yohan.

She leaned forward and grasped Yohan\'s shirt. Then she pulled him closer and snapped her lips against his own. She was taking the lead here but her attempts were rather clumsy.

Yohan bit Rui\'s lips lightly, causing her to gasp, and used this opportunity to map her mouth out. Lady Rui did not know what to do as her sensations overwhelmed her mind. She was getting lost in the pleasure.

But just as things were about to get spicy, there was a knock at the door. The head butler\'s voice rang through the door, causing the two kissing figures to pull apart in shock and embarrassment.

Lady Rui looked especially sad and pissed off by this sudden interruption. She seemed not to want to pull back from Yohan but Yohan was the one who gestured for her to wait.

"We should listen to our good friend first before we continue. Won\'t it be better to take care of him and his lying ass first?"

Yohan\'s words finally pacified Lady Rui and she backed off. The disappointment did not go away even when Yohan pecker her lips one more time.

Lady Rui finally listened to Yohan and asked for the head butler to enter. He looked relieved to be granted this audience with her but looked taken aback by Yohan\'s presence in the room.

And Yohan was sure his current look along with Lady Rui\'s puffed-up lips must be sending the head butler for a loop.

But he still did not say anything regarding this and continued to make his demand. This man was sharp but so dumb at the same time and that was why he was going to lose his position soon enough.

…………………..

The head butler bit his lips as he watched everything he had planned fall apart. It had all happened so fast that he had not even gotten time to process what was happening.

And it all started with the death of the head cook. It had been so sudden that no one knew how to respond.

Worst of all - someone had imitated his brand of assassination to take care of the head cook. It was obvious that he was being framed by someone.

But what the head cook failed to understand was, why and how someone had done that. As far as he knew, no one had seen him assassinate people. It had been a thing the head butler used to do before his current post.

How had his method been applied again? Had it been Hans?

\'And to top it all off, Hobbit is ignoring me as well. He had been acting distant for the past two days.\'

The head butler had tried visiting Hobbit a few times already but he had gotten a cold reply every time. Hobbit had also relocated himself to the kitchen where he was busy playing \'cook\' with the other workers.

That child was too troublesome, having forgotten the real reason he had been brought to this mansion and to serve the right master. Now he was busy playing hooky with the people around him.

\'I can allow other people to doubt me but not Lady Rui. If she loses her trust in me then I am done for. I cannot allow her to slip out of my hands as well.\'

Due to all this going on around him, the head butler knew he needed to form a plan. He needed to find a way to convenience Lady Rui that he was innocent and someone else had framed him.

It would not be difficult to do because Lady Rui was a foolish little girl who did not know better. She would believe her butler, the person who had been with her the longest, over anyone else.

\'I need to meet Lady Rui. I need to head toward her room right now.\'

The head butler hurried up and left to meet Lady Rui. He knocked on her room door and waited for her to allow him entry. But when the door opened, it was Yohan Strout who was standing on the other side.

Lady Rui was in the room as well, her face flushed and her lips a little swollen. It seemed like her tea had not suited her well.

"Haad butler, what brings you here at this time of the day? You are usually too busy to visit me."

Lady Rui questioned with an innocent face. The head butler looked at her, then at Yohan, and decided to ask a favor of her lady.

"My lady, there is something I wanted to discuss with you alone. If Butler Strout would be so kind as to step outside-"

The head butler asked with all the polite bone left in his body. He would not mess this up.
