“Good morning. Come here and have breakfast.” Anna said to him when she came out of the kitchen with a pot of cereal in her hand. “We’ll have cereal with red dates and pies for breakfast today.”
Wayne nodded slightly and turned around with a faint smile on his face.
“Miss Gabriel, let me do it for you. You may take a seat and have breakfast.” Seeing that Anna was ladling out the cereal, Carla hurried to help her.
After serving the two children and Anna the cereal, she carefully put another bowl of cereal in front of Wayne.
“Mr. Wright, please have some cereal,” she said.
Wayne took a look at the others who were eating pies with their hands and asked casually, “Where are the forks?”
However, Carla thought that he was blaming her and was frightened. Her hand shook so violently that she accidentally knocked over the bowl in front of Wayne, and the hot cereal spilled out on Wayne’s pants.
Wayne’s face changed and he stood up immediately.
Frowning tightly, Wayne stared at the cereal on his trousers and asked in a cold voice, “What is with you today?”
Carla was so frightened that she felt weak in her legs and slumped to her knees with the rims of her eyes turning red. Then she said in a trembling voice, “Mr. Wright, I’m sorry. I didn’t mean to do that.”
Anna was taken aback by the harsh sound of the chair rubbing the floor and looked at Wayne. When she saw the cereal on his pants, she hurriedly walked to Wayne and asked, “Are you okay?”
Wayne frowned more tightly and didn’t say anything, looking displeased. Meanwhile, he felt a little embarrassed when Anna looked at his pants.
Seeing Carla trembling with fear, Anna frowned and said to Wayne, “You are You scared her.”
Hearing this, Wayne asked with a darkened face, “I’m hard on her?” I just said ‘What is with you today?’ Am I hard on her? “Yes. Look, Carla is so frightened,” Anna said as she helped Carla up.
Then she suddenly realized that she shouldn’t talk to Wayne in such a way and immediately explained, “Well, I didn’t mean that you are wrong. I just want to say that… Carla is just a nineteen–year–old girl. I heard that she has just been here for more than a month. You’d better be gentle to her.”
The more she explained, the more she felt that what she had said was adding insult to injury
“Forget it,” Wayne said impatiently and waved Carla away. Then he left the dining room and strode upstairs.
Seeing this, Matthew and Tammy looked at each other.
Tammy nodded knowingly and said with a worried look, “Mom, Uncle Wayne seems to be scalded. I’ll go to see him.”
Anna immediately looked back at her and said, “Stay here and have breakfast. You don’t know how to deal with scalds. I’ll go and see if he’s all right.”
