章 899: Best-friend act

~ Chicago, Ellie's villa ~

Tom headed to the kitchen for breakfast, as usually. House staff makes sure that there is fresh bread and sandwich materials in the fridge, and he makes his own coffee.

He was surprised to see that the maids are busying themselves in making an elaborate breakfast setup in the dining room.

"Is there a special occasion?", Tom asked one maid while gesturing to the buffet-style table where variety of fresh pastries are being arranged by two other maids before being covered with a glass bell to preserve freshness. Ellie's favorites breakfast items are there as well.

"Miss Young is home.", the maid responded with a big smile and went back to the kitchen to fetch more serving plates.

Tom's eyebrows shoot up and a smile bloomed on his face. 'Ellie is here! My Queen!'

Ah, since he came to Chicago she is spending her days in the design studio and nights with that boy-fri-end of hers. And she is here now!
