Chapter 20 - Commander Gunn Is Lying to His Own Wife?

Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

Only then did Valerie heave a sigh of relief.

That was what she thought. Jonathan was the first commander of the Empire. Who would dare to say they did not know him?

Nonetheless, in the palace, it was probably only His Majesty who was close to him. After all, they were relatives.

Besides His Majesty, perhaps also the military officers under Jonathan.

Obviously, Mr. G was just an ordinary person working in the palace. He had nothing to do with Jonathan and had no contact with him.

Valerie was relieved.

“That’s all then. Goodbye, Mr. G.”

“Goodbye.”

After hanging up, Jonathan went to look over some documents. White Tiger hesitated for a while before saying in a low voice, “Master, you spoke several lies just now. You’re someone who has never lied.”

White Tiger thought angrily, ‘Moreover, he’s lying to his own wife!

Jonathan looked down. “She’s afraid of me now. If I told the truth, she wouldn’t have talked with me for so long,”

White Tiger checked the length of the previous call. Oh, it was 28 minutes.

Madam could chat with a stranger for 28 minutes, but she was reluctant to reply to the master’s message. White Tiger suddenly felt a little sorry for his master.

However.

White Tiger said, “Master, why did you help the Sullivans back then? That was so many years ago.”

It was not because his master liked the food of the Sullivan Restaurant. Jonathan would not even have bothered to drink nutrient solutions if it were not for the fact that he would starve to death!

Jonathan picked up a document and looked at it, coldly ignoring White Tiger.

On the other end, Valerie turned around and reported the good news to her grandfather.

With Mr. G’s help, they were not afraid of any trouble from the Holts.

When Grandpa Sullivan asked what Mr. G was like, Valerie thought about it and said, “He didn’t turn on the projection, but based on his voice, he should be in his 30s or 40s. He’s quite gentle. I’m guessing that he works in an administration role in the palace. He said that he likes the food of our family

restaurant. When the First District branch opens, I’ll cook something myself and invite him for a meal!”

Seeing that Valerie was in a very excited mood, Grandpa Sullivan smiled kindly. “You can cook? Why haven’t you cooked for me?”

“Tm afraid you might think it’s bad. I’ve learned a lot in the past two years. How about I make two dishes for you to try today?” Valerie smiled winningly.

To make her cooking abilities appear to be a logical development, Valerie had spent the past two years, after waking up, concentrating on ‘learning’ to cook while she recuperated.

Grandpa Sullivan shook his head and said, “It’s too late today. I’ve eaten too much. Let’s do it tomorrow.”

“Alright, Grandpa.”

‘When Valerie came out of the old man’s study, she decided to go to the kitchen to get some ingredients but ran into Ruth who was chopping vegetables.

Although there were housekeeping robots now, the Sullivans were all willing to cook their own meals.

Ruth was chopping vegetables with a kitchen knife, and beside her stood Madeline, who was putting on another act.

With eyes red from crying, Madeline said woefully, “Mom, I didn’t mean to have an accident. I called a number at random in a panic—t didn’t expect it to be Isaac. Don’t be angry, okay?”

Ruth chopped the carrots loudly, then minced them finely.

She sneered and said, “You’re still able to think so quickly while panicking. You could’ve called anyone else but you called the groom? Now that Isaac isn’t marrying Val, are you happy?”

“Mom, I’m not, I’m really not…”

“Tm not your mom.. Don’t just call me whatever you like!”
