374: Respect

Respect

Of course, things wouldn't develop as they did in the idol dramas. Auntie Liu didn't find any blood on Mrs. Huo's body, she sighed, either because she was thankful or regretful about it.1

Her sigh was very soft, but it still attracted Mrs. Huo's attention. Only then did Mrs. Huo realize that she was being supported by a vulgar and lowly female cook to sit on the sofa.

Mrs. Huo was used to classifying people into different statuses. In her eyes, Auntie Liu, who was the cook, was definitely a low-class person. She had never bothered to interact with such people, let alone allowing them to touch her body.

Therefore, after Mrs. Huo realized that the auntie was too close to her, she subconsciously pushed her hard. Auntie Liu was a little plump and often did physical work. She was not someone a frail and wealthy woman like Mrs. Huo could push down.

Moreover, Mrs. Huo had just been kicked by Huo You and had fallen to the ground for a long time without being able to get up. Now, she looked even weaker.

Auntie Liu didn't move from Mrs. Huo's push and only looked at her a little sluggishly. She asked curiously, "Madam, why did you push me?"

Mrs. Huo's expression was very bad. She glared at Auntie Liu angrily, gritted her teeth, and scolded in a low voice, "Get lost! Stay away from me!"

The disgust on Mrs. Huo's face was too obvious and Auntie Liu saw it clearly.

Although Auntie Liu was a female cook hired by the Huo Family, she only maintained the most basic respect for this family and did not think that she needed to look up to them in terms of personality. At this moment, she sensed that Mrs. Huo's action towards her was probably because she hated lowly people like them, so her expression turned ugly.

Without hesitation, she released her grip, causing Mrs. Huo, who had yet to sit steadily on the sofa, to sway and fall onto the sofa in a sorry state.

How could Mrs. Huo have expected that a mere female cook would dare to treat her like this?!

She looked up and glared at Auntie Liu in surprise and anger. She was about to say something, but Auntie Liu didn't give her a chance. She said stiffly, "Madam, take a good rest. I'll go back to work."

In the entire Huo Family, Auntie Liu liked Huo Feng the most. However, she didn't have much respect or good feelings for the two owners of the Huo Family—Mr. and Mrs. Huo. At this moment, she didn't care if Mrs. Huo would take revenge on her in the future. She stomped on the ground and strode back to the kitchen, then slammed the kitchen door with a loud bang.

The sudden sound of the door closing shocked Mrs. Huo, who had just come back to her senses. She glared in the direction Auntie Liu had left in anger and cursed fiercely, "Our Huo Family hasn't collapsed yet! How dare a servant at home actually dare to give their master a bad attitude?! You're really out of control! You lowly servant, I'll definitely teach you a lesson! Just you wait…"

Because she was too angry, Mrs. Huo's originally gentle and pleasant voice became sharp and harsh. It even sounded a little hoarse and was uncomfortable to the ears.

Mr. Huo was already having a headache from Huo You's anger. When he heard Mrs. Huo cursing like a shrew, his brows furrowed even more.

However, after a while, the cursing in his ears did not stop. Frustration rose in Mr. Huo's heart. He frowned deeply and scolded in a low voice, "That's enough, are you done?! You're arguing so much with a female cook who's a servant in our family. Do you still have any of the magnanimity and demeanor of the madam of the Huo Family?"

As the head of the Huo Family, Mr. Huo was already used to lecturing and teaching family members. However, as a father, he was busy with his career and didn't participate too much in his children's growth. Therefore, when facing his children's education, Mr. Huo usually wouldn't interfere too much. Hence, most of his lecturing and teachings were targeted at his wife.

Mr. Huo had thought that just like in the past, after hearing his scolding, Mrs. Huo would immediately calm down. Even if she had resentment in her heart, she wouldn't show it at all. After that, when her anger subsided, Mrs. Huo would take the initiative to apologize and admit her mistake. However, this time was completely different from before.

Mrs. Huo had suffered too much anger from Mr. Huo today, especially after the banquet ended when she was slapped by Mr. Huo in the car. The anger she felt from that slap hadn't completely dissipated from Mrs. Huo's heart.
