It was Vi’s first time attending such an event. She might not know how things worked.
Mnie had guessed that something like this would happen. It was just that she did not know what Eugene wanted her to help with.
She lifted her head and said calmly, “It isn’t appropriate for me to do so.”
Eugene looked at her without showing any expression. He said, “Go and teach her.”
Mnie naturally knew who he meant. Pursing her lips, she said nothing.
Thest time she taught Vi, it ended up making her lose her job as the president’s secretary.
She wanted to reject it, but Eugene said, “Take it as a job before she’s ready to take over the wheel. I’ll pay you a sry.”
He had said it casually, yet Simon whistled and quipped with interest, “Eugene, you sure are generous.”
Then, he looked at Mnie. “This is a good opportunity. Why aren’t you grabbing it, Mnie?”
Mnie wasn’t sure if it was an opportunity or a trap. She looked outside and saw Vi standing there nervously. Others would think she was a waitress if they did not know her identity.

This was Vi’s first time attending the Scott family’s banquet. She knew nothing much about wealthy family’s banquets or probably could not even recognize the guests. She could only stand beside Ste and smile like a doll.
Ste was annoyed to see her being so foolish. Vi felt aggrieved, yet she dared not show it on her face and could only stand there with a stiff smile.
When Eugene returned, she looked at him and subconsciously wanted to hide behind him.
Before she could move, she saw Mnie behind Eugene. Her smile froze, and she asked Eugene in a whisper, “Eugene, Mnie is our guest. Why did you bring her here?”
Before Eugene could exin, Mnie stood behind Ste. She politely and naturally took the gifts the guests brought and greeted the guests.
The difference was noticeable. Vi pouted her lips and tugged Eugene’s sleeve. She was about to shed tears. “Eugene, did you bring Mnie over because you think I’m too stupid to handle this?”
Eugene wiped her tears andforted her, saying, “She’s used to doing this.”
Mnie was not far from them and heard every word Eugene said.
Her hand that was receiving the gift froze for a second before she pretended nothing had happened. She put the gift aside.
Although Ste disliked Mnie, she felt things were easier with Mnie around. She left Mnie to attend to the guests and went inside to take a break.
After Ste and Cedric left, Vi was less tense. She held Eugene’s hand and sniffled as she
asked him, “Did I embarrass you today?”
“No.” Eugene tucked Vi’s hair behind her ear. “You’re not a waitress. I don’t need you to do all this to make me more presentable.”
Only then did Vi feel better. Meanwhile, Mnie said nothing.
Vi was not a waitress and did not need to do all this.
Mnie was offended.
Stephen was a littlete. He came with his parents and was startled to see Mnie weing the guests.
His parents were highly educated and polite.
Mnie understood where Stephen got his gentlemanly side from when she saw them.
After Stephen and his family took their seats, Mnie looked at the guest list. Only a few more guests had not arrived.
Eugene and Vi had long taken their seats. The banquet began right after Mnie weed thest guest.
Before she could take a break, her phone beeped. Eugene had sent her a message through WhatsApp, asking her to go to him.
Mnie had experienced this countless times. She previously had to attend to the guests with Eugene.
When she approached him, Ste and Cedric were already waiting there. Beside them was Vi.
Ste was not in a good mood. She nced at Mnie and said, “It’s embarrassing enough to bring one, yet he brought two.”
