Serenity and Zachary York

Chapter 3134

It was not cold in the whole of Georgia during winter and not just Wiltspoon. Though it was a little colder in the neighboring provinces.

“It’s alright. It’s not that cold if I don’t go outside.”

There was heating in the hotel, so he did not feel cold.

In the hotel room, he only needed to wear a long-sleeve shirt and did not even need a jacket.

Meanwhile, at Dunboy Manor, there would be heating everywhere apart from the yard, and would not be cold either. This content © 2024 NôvelDrama.Org.

He was applying to be a chef, so he would naturally be working in the kitchen, which was indoors. Even if it were freezing outside, it would be warm inside.

Once he got busy, he might even feel hot enough to sweat.

“Is it truly not cold in Wiltspoon in the winter?” Dominic asked. “I’ve never been to Georgia. I just know that it’s a very wealthy province and Wiltspoon is a big city.”

“It might not be cold for you guys, but to us, it feels cold if the temperature drops even a little. And there are wealthy and poor people everywhere.”

“That’s true. In Windermere, Satbury is the capital and is a big city, but the conditions are much worse in the more rural areas.”

Austin said mildly, “It’s the same for us. Georgia might be doing well economically, but the conditions in rural areas aren’t great either.”

Dominic smiled but did not continue the conversation because they were about to arrive at Dunboy Manor.

Ten minutes later, Dominic led Austin into a two-story building next to the main building and up to a room on the second floor. Dominic unlocked and opened it for Austin before saying to him, “You’ll be staying here for the night, Mr. York.

“If you succeed in the interview tomorrow, this will be your accommodation.

“We replaced everything inside with new ones after the previous employee left. Take a look later and let me know if anything’s missing. I’ll get someone to send it over to you.”

The manor employees were all live-in and stayed in this two-story building.

Those who only worked on the estate lived further away because they did not need to enter the manor to work.

Only the butler and the housekeeper stayed with the O’Connors in the main house.

“Alright. Thanks, Dominic.” Dominic, a middle-aged man, was the previous butler’s son. He grew up with the O’Connors and succeeded his father later on, which was also why he was deeply trusted.

Dominic was very loyal to the O’Connors and was pretty much on par with Sam from Wildridge Manor.

The housekeeper was a woman and was a little younger than Dominic was. Her main responsibility was to coordinate the female domestic helpers’ jobs and had been working here for around ten years. Mrs. Delphine O’Connor, Isabella’s mother, favored her very much.

On the other hand, as the head of the family, Isabella relied on Dominic more. After all, he had watched them grow up and had grown up with the O’Connors too, and so was even more loyal to

them.

“You should get some rest for now. Would you like to make your own dinner, or shall I get someone to bring you some food? If you want to make it yourself, you can just grab the ingredients from the main kitchen. There’s a fully equipped kitchen here. If you don’t want to cook, just add your name to the list and the main kitchen will prepare your dinner. Once it’s time, I can get someone to bring it to you, or you can head to the staff lounge to eat.”

There was not much difference between the management of Dunboy Manor and Wildridge Manor. If Austin had to pinpoint something, the rules here at Dunboy were stricter.

Wildridge had fewer rules because Grandma May was approachable and easygoing.

Austin replied, “It’s just a single meal, so I won’t make it myself. Could you tell me where the lounge is? I’ll have dinner there.”

Dominic answered, “Once you head out, walk along and follow the signs, and you’ll find it.”

“Alright. Thanks again, Dominic.”

Dominic smiled. “I hope we become colleagues, Mr. York.”

“We will!” Austin was very confident. If Isabella could stomach his treats, the one thing he was worst at making, his best dishes would do just fine.
