Falling For My Billionaire Savior - Chapter 104: Chapter 104

Then Delilah announced, "Kate, spend the next few days with Helen. Learn the family's social connections and everyone's habits.
"Helen's pregnant. She shouldn't overdo it. You get familiar first, and after your honeymoon, you'll run the household for us."
As soon as Delilah said that, both Helen and I froze. I really didn't want to. I quickly waved my hands. "Delilah, I don't know anything about this. I can't do it."
That was when Helen's face lit up a bit.
But Delilah wouldn't hear it. "If you don't know something, ask Helen. You'll get the hang of it with practice. No one's born knowing everything. You can learn.
"How much work can there be with just a few people in the house? You're young, but instead of being responsible, you're trying to slack off."
Even though she sounded like she was scolding, Delilah wasn't really mad. While she said that, she'd already given half of Helen's household duties to me. And that was just for now. In a month, it would all be mine.
Delilah always meant what she said. Helen saw it was settled, so she put on a fake smile. "It's so kind of you, Delilah. You know I've been tired and want me to rest. Kate, I'll show you around starting today."
Since that was how it was, I'd look ungrateful if I kept refusing. So I agreed, "Helen, please be patient with me. I'm not good at this."
Delilah tapped my forehead, laughing as she chided me. "You're a sharp girl. Don't act dumb. Lazy, that's what you are."
With Delilah sticking up for me like that, Helen's smile got stiff. But with Delilah there, she had to keep up the friendly act.
I knew Helen probably wanted to get rid of me right then. I was already a big threat to her, and now I was taking over running the household. Anyone would be upset about that.
Once Delilah was done, it was time to go to work.
Even though it was their own company, the Knights still clocked in like regular employees. They rarely came late or left early.
Delilah was currently the chairman of Knight Group. Martin was the general manager, Richard the deputy manager. Since they worked in the same place, they left together this morning.
Mason left 20 minutes early this morning. He'd been sent to Gordon Group, and after he turned the company around from losses to profits with his smart way of running things, Delilah handed over all the hospitals she owned to him to manage.
So Mason spent two days a week at the hospitals. The drive was a bit longer, so he left early today.
Once everyone who went to work had gone, it was just us three women left in the house.
Joey went back to her room and didn't come out. I was already surprised she wasn't coming to hassle me. Even more surprising was how nice Helen was being. She spent the whole morning showing me the ropes of running the household—no trouble at all.
When something was this out of the ordinary, there was definitely something up.
Usually, with no one else home, this would be the perfect time to pick a fight. Even with everyone around yesterday, Helen still found little ways to bug me. Now she was properly teaching me to run the house? Something was not right here.
I listened and learned like I should, but I kept my eyes open for any tricks she might be planning.
But the whole morning went smoothly. Helen didn't pick on me or snap. She just kept going over the house details, patient and thorough.
It was like she was a different person. Anyone who didn't know better might actually think she was being kind.
I picked up a lot that morning—really opened my eyes.
It was all just daily life, right? Three meals a day. But life in a rich family was way more complicated than in a regular home.
