Natalie's magical growth record

Chapter 1278 Communication and Creativity at the Banquet

So, although she wasn't happy to do all the chores for a minister who had only been in office for less than four years, she still recognized the pros and cons.

Once the idea was confirmed, she didn't hesitate any longer and called her assistant directly, deciding to write a letter to ask the eldest son of Franny's family for his opinion.

……

As it approached noon, Natalie had reluctantly completed the general process of the Last Supper and the more detailed parts under Jarod's arrangement. She thought Jarod would explain it all to her, but Jarod just told her nonchalantly and asked her to wait for Cyrus to come back and let Cyrus teach her in person.

If she was dissatisfied with this arrangement, he also said that he would not mind if she found another professional housekeeper from the Water North District. In short, the study would end here.

Natalie was surprised by this but could not really refute anything. Fortunately, she had received similar treatment from Lord Leander a few years ago, so after being surprised, she honestly accepted the other party's arrangement.

As for whether this matter was within the scope of Cyrus's plan, she could only assume that the sage assistant already knew about it or had anticipated it. Otherwise, she couldn't help but be unable to imagine what happened to Jarod later.

As if he had predicted her thoughts, just when she was changing out of the rented dress, there was a sudden knock on the door of her dressing room.

[Could it be that Cyrus is back...? 】

She thought slightly panicked in her heart.

But soon, she felt completely relieved, because the person who knocked on her door was none other than Jarod's personal butler who was familiar with various procedures to help her.

Speaking of this Mr. Butler, Natalie had to emphasize in her heart that she was almost entirely responsible for learning the dinner process alone. Since Jarod entered the banquet hall, he had only reminded her when she made a mistake. Several times, everything from theoretical explanations to dance steps exercises were all done by the butler himself.

[This is really a special exercise...]

Natalie sighed silently in her heart, then quickly retracted her thoughts and opened the closed door.

"How do you feel now? If you still don't understand anything about the processes just now, please feel free to ask me."

As soon as she opened the door, she saw that the butler who had been teaching her seriously had already returned to the state that a butler should have. Take the initiative to show concern.

"Okay, I have memorized the process. You explained it very clearly. Thank you very much again!"

Not daring to be sloppy, she checked her memory again, and after confirming that she had not missed any etiquette process, Natalie answered with confidence, and responded with the same solemn etiquette, bowing deeply.

"That's good."

Mr. Butler nodded slightly and immediately led Natalie back to the banquet hall where she practiced before.

It wasn't until the moment when the butler took her back to the banquet hall without asking any questions, that Natalie truly confirmed that all the butler's actions seemed to be businesslike.

Asking her to take the initiative to ask is a proactive inquiry in the literal sense. She will not take the initiative to confirm her grasp of the situation like Wesley or Anatole, which makes her a little uncomfortable.

However, although she felt uncomfortable with this, she did not find it unacceptable. After all, during the previous practice, the other party noticed her questions from her expressions and movements more than once, and patiently answered them time and time again.

Now she can only understand that she is not the real loyalist of this Mr. Butler. At least she can clearly feel that the attitude of this Mr. Butler towards Jarod is obviously different from hers.

Such a comparison made her miss the two housekeepers who took great care of her even more.

"It's finally over, right? Those tedious processes are so boring that you want to sleep. Now that it's over, don't you feel instantly relaxed?"

As her thoughts wandered uncontrollably, she suddenly heard Jarod's words. Immediately, she immediately retracted her thoughts and answered the other party's question seriously.

From the problems she encountered to her own views on large dinner parties, she responded to the other party without missing any link.

"I'm just asking casually, why are you so serious?"

"Feel sorry…"

"Don't worry, I don't care..."

At this point, Jarod subconsciously wanted to tease Natalie about how she always took things too seriously, but then he stopped thinking about it.

After all, no one knows whether Natalie will take it to heart. If she really takes it to heart, he will be in trouble.

He didn't want Natalie to look depressed when Cyrus came back. In that case, Cyrus would definitely not let him go easily.

So, at the moment, he was busy looking for topics to talk to Natalie without saying a word.

He didn't care what Natalie's answer was, he just hoped that Natalie's attention would slowly turn to the fragmentary topics he opened.

More than ten minutes passed like this, and just when he was telling Natalie about some of his adventures in his youth, Cyrus, who had been delayed in returning before, finally came back.

Not paying attention to the other person's mood at the moment, he quickly stood up and waved hello.

Unexpectedly, Cyrus just nodded coldly to him, and then walked straight towards Natalie.

"How do you feel? Are you familiar with the process?"

Although he said the same words as Mr. Jarod's butler, Natalie could hear an obvious concern from the other person's brief words.

"Is there any problem? Or are you surprised that I'm back at this hour?"

Noticing the surprised and satisfied expression on Natalie's face, Cyrus was stunned for a moment, then quickly calmed down and asked.

"No, it's nothing. I was just thinking and thought your meeting would take a long time..."

Similarly, Natalie couldn't help but feel a strong guilty feeling when Cyrus asked her this question.

Although she knew that the thoughts in her mind just now were not strange, but when Cyrus looked at her like this, she instinctively felt that she had done something wrong.

At the moment, she didn't care about anything else and quickly waved her hands to try to change the topic.

Unexpectedly, Cyrus answered her questions very seriously, from the reason why the meeting lasted for so long to some of her studies, all in detail. This made her feel a very unexpected emotion again.

But even though she was thinking this in her heart, she didn't dare to show it out.

So, she quickly suppressed her thoughts and began to carefully organize her words to respond to Cyrus's various questions.

However, what she didn't know was that just as she was answering seriously, Jarod, who was sitting next to him, chuckled...
