Chapter 383

 Chapter 383 The thought of young Giselle moving in and having a bunch of children only added to Grace's stress. "Mom, no matter what, we all know Giselle is cunning and manipulative," Grace said. "We might not be able to interfere with her marriage to Don, but we still have to watch her in every other way." She continued, "I heard Don just made her general manager of one of the branch offices. They've only been married a short time, and she's already showing off at the company. With Don so infatuated, he might even transfer all his shares to her.

How can we not worry?" Dorothea's expression darkened, but she remained silent. Ethan interrupted coldly, ''No matter how distracted Don might be, he still knows how to handle the company's big decisions. I'll keep an eye on that. Don't talk nonsense here." Grace shot him a hard glare. "Go ahead and defend him! Back when he was single, you two were like peas ina pod, and you treated Zachary like gold. "Now he's married, and this temptress has him completely wrapped around her finger. Do you think he'll even look at you the same?

He doesn't even respect Mom, let alone us!" "Crazy," Ethan muttered, clearly annoyed. Dorothea understood Grace's frustration but stayed quiet. ---- After decades together, she and Grace were almost like mother and daughter. Before Giselle arrived, the Kane family had always been close- knit. Everyone treated each other fairly, and there were no fights or hidden motives. But now, that harmony had clearly been disrupted. Donovan had grown distant from the family, and the thought made Dorothea frown even more.

In the kitchen, Giselle crouched on the floor, plucking the chicken she had just scalded. Donovan had initially wanted to pull her away, but seeing her focused and enjoying the work, he crouched down beside her, helping with the task as if they were simply having fun together. The housekeepers panicked when they saw this. They quickly turned to Donovan and said, "Mr. Kane, you should step back and rest. Let us handle this work. Don't get your hands dirty. Donovan ignored them. In his 30s, he had never done housework , and this was the first time he had helped in the kitchen.

He found it strangely enjoyable to experience a bit of everyday life alongside Giselle. Seeing him put himself on her side and set aside his status to help with the work, Giselle felt a warm sense of comfort. Even though she was being "punished " under the Kane roof, she felt completely safe. She casually said, "Of all the poultry, I like duck the most. Chicken is my least favorite." ---- "You seem to like it quite a bit,"" Donovan teased. Giselle caught the meaning behind his words immediately and laughed. "Shut up!" She playfully smacked him on the head with her dirty hand.

" When did you get more mischievous than me?" As they playfully bantered, Giselle looked up and saw Dorothea standing in the kitchen doorway, staring at her with piercing eyes.
