Marcus didn’t play peacemaker, just passed a beef patty to Cornelia, “Old Abner got this especially for
you. Give it a whirl, see if you like it.”
Cornelia took a bite, “This must be real beef. Tastes great.”
Marcus asked, “Is there fake beef?”
Cornelia replied, “Some places make beef patties using horse meat. They pass off low-grade stuff as
high-grade beef. Doesn’t taste a thing like beef. But of course, they don’t charge as much as real beef.”
Marcus gave Cornelia another beef patty, “Then have a bit more today.”
Cornelia looked up, “How long are those two old men going to bicker?”
Marcus answered, “That’s just their way of showing they care for each other. Don’t mind them, let them
have at it.”
Mr. Augustine turned to them, “You’re heartless. We’re arguing, yet you’re happily eating.”
Marcus laughed, “You always quarrel when you meet, and miss each other when you don’t. I’m used to
it.”
Old Mr. Abner said, “Just because you’re used to it, you can ignore us? Let’s stop arguing. Or they’ll
both start laughing at us.”
Mr. Augustine passed a pork chop to Old Abner, “Here’s the grilled pork chop you like. Try it, is it as
good as the one your wife made?”
Old Abner replied, “My wife made the best grilled pork chop in the world. It’s just a shame I can’t have it
anymore.”
Mr. Augustine patted Old Abner’s back, “Everyone has their time to go. It’s just a matter of sooner or
later. She was with you for decades. You should be content. Unlike
me…”
Mr. Augustine stopped himself in time, “Nelly, do you want pork chop? This place does a great job with
it.”
Old Abner said, “Nelly won’t have it, I ordered a salad for her. Nowadays, skinny is the fashion. Girls
are considered attractive when they’re skin and bones. I don’t know when this sick sense of beauty
started. Nelly, you look great as you are. Don’t compare yourself to those celebrities. Being skin and
bones isn’t normal.”
Cornelia chuckled and had a bite of the pork chop, “I’ll have the pork chop. What girl doesn’t want to
eat what she likes? No one wants to limit what they eat. But like Old Abner said, skinny is the trend
now. If a girl is slightly overweight, she’s criticized. Even finding a job is hard. Take my job for instance,
if I were 20 pounds heavier, I wouldn’t have gotten the chance to be the secretary for the president of
Hartley Group, let alone become President Hartley’s assistant.”
Marcus listened, didn’t say anything, but he took note of what Cornelia said. Hartley Group was one of
the famous corporations worldwide. If they started to change their beauty standards, and when hiring
female staff, they looked at their abilities, character, and values, not their appearance or figure, it would
gradually influence mainstream beauty standards.
Old Abner said, “I really don’t know who came up with this abnormal beauty standard. It’s clearly
suppressing women.”
Mr. Augustine said, “You’re surprisingly woke, not bad.”
Old Abner said, “My mother’s a woman, so are my wife and daughter. Without women, there would be
no us. Yet, some people are full of malice towards women, as if they weren’t born of a woman.”
