After she finished speaking, Minerva placed the plate in front of Jarold. Then, she turned around and left.
He looked at the plate of cooked meat. He stared at her back and snorted, "Don't think that I'll eat it just because you put it here." Baldrick, who sat beside him, had half a bowl of soup left. He had a good appetite. After hearing Jarold's words, he made a suggestion.
"Master Collins, if you think that this beef is overcooked, give it to me. My teeth are quite good." Hearing these words, Jarold immediately huffed in anger, "What did you just say? Do you mean that my teeth aren't good?" Baldrick rubbed his nose and chuckled, "I heard you say that the meat was overcooked, so..." Perhaps because he had been irritated, Jarold took a piece of meat and dipped it in ssauce. Then, he stuffed it into his mouth. The taste was especially good, and the sauce had a very special taste. It was completely different from what he usually ate.
Jarold couldn't help but ask, "What kind of sauce is this?" Abigail replied, "Stop asking. You won't be able to buy it." Baldrick asked, "What do you mean?" Vera smiled bashfully, "I made it just now. Master Collins, do you like this sauce? Should I make smore for you to bring back hlater?" Hearing these words, Jarold was taken aback. He didn't think that this young girl could actually make this kind of sauce.
Minerva also went along with the flow and said, "Vera is very good at cooking. She made those sauces after she arrived here." However, Jarold tightened his lips and responded, "I only asked what kind of sauce it was. Did I say that it was delicious?" Everyone was lost for words.
Suddenly, he didn't know what to say.
They had seen his expression when he picked up the beef with sauce and put it into his mouth to chew. Vera and Minerva stared at each other; they felt very helpless.
However, Abigail snorted coldly and did not give him any face at all.

After that, she got up and stretched out her hands to place the sauce in front of her, "Don't eat it if it doesn't taste good, or it will be wasted." After thinking for a moment, she set her eyes at the plate of the cooked meat in front of Jarold. Then, she curled her lips and questioned him, "Is this plate of meat also not tasty? Why don't you bring it over as well? I'm afraid that you'll waste your food." After that, she got up and expeditiously took that plate of beef, which Jarold had only eaten two pieces of, and placed it in front of herself.
He was at a loss for words.
"Abigail... acted very truculently!" "It was... so unacceptable!" He thought to himself.
Jarold was so angry that he was about to raise his eyebrows, but he didn't dare to speak harshly when he was facing his daughter. Moreover, he really had nothing to say.
Baldrick couldn't help laughing when he saw this scene. He pondered to himself, "Master Collins had suffered a lot in front of Miss Abigail. He should have improved his relationship with her by saying something nice. However, it was Madam Minerva who made it up to him. Master Collins can't help but want to be arrogant to her. However, in the middle, Miss Abigail appeared to disrupt his plans." "Old Master is so annoyed that he can't say anything." Thinking of this, Baldrick lowered his voice and approached Jarold.
"Master Collins, you'd better be quiet. Miss Abigail is not a person who is easy to deal with." His voice was very low. Although Abigail was sitting opposite him at the table, she could still vaguely hear his words. She narrowed her eyes and asked, "Baldrick, who do you think is not easy to deal with?" He laughed awkwardly but didn't reply.
This topic was skipped. Jarold thought that Baldrick would explain. He didn't expect that he didn't give her an explanation. Furthermore, Abigail didn't pursue the matter.
"Thus, is this what he meant by not talking too much?' Jarold pondered to himself.
When Minerva was about to cook another plate of beef for Master Collins, Abigail suddenly held her hand and commented coldly, "The pot is here, and the ingredients are well prepared. If someone wants to eat, they can do it themselves. After all, we don't have servants here, so we can't serve him. If someone doesn't want to do it himself, it's better to pack up and go back to his large house.
There are many servants waiting for him to serve him." No one knew what to say.
After Abigail had finished speaking, it was impossible for Minerva to make a move on behalf of Jarold. He glanced at Abigail and suddenly regretted his decisions.
"Why did I have to bad- mouth her just now? I should have shut up and eaten quietly," he thought to himself. "Not only do I have nothing to eat, but I have to do it myself." However, it was impossible for him to go back to the cold and large house at this moment. He snorted in his heart. It wasn't impossible for him to make a move on his own.
He knew how to do it.
Therefore, he stood up on his own and began to make a move.
As soon as he made his move, Minerva and Vera anxiously stopped eating their food and looked at him.
After all, he was an old man, and the pot was very hot. They were worried that he would be burnt or other accidents would happen.
Vera and Minerva took a look at each other and then Vera put down her tableware.

"Sit down!" Abigail glanced at her and added softly, "You are Minerva's friend, Vera, right? You are not a servant of the Collins family. There is no reason for you to serve him." Vera bit her lower lip and did not dare to speak again. After all, Abigail had a strong aura, and she was also Minerva's elder.
Minerva thought for a moment and answered softly, "Although we're not servants of the Collins family, we're still the younger generation. We should serve our elders. Auntie, Grandpa, Baldrick, you guys just sit down and eat. Let Vera and I do it." Now that Maddox was in the hospital, if anything happened to Jarold, they would be really helpless. Abigail squinted her eyes and sized her up. Seeing her being very determined, she thought for a while and decided not to refute her and let her be.
Thinking of this, Abigail did not say anything, but Baldrick spoke, "No need, I can do it myself." Jarold spoke up as well, "There's no need for you guys to serve me. I'll do it myself." "Baldrick is about the sage as me. If he can do it, why can't I?" He pondered to himself.
Abigail jeered, "Did you hear it, Minerva? He doesn't appreciate your kindness at all, so don't bother him el apymore! Hurry up and eat. After that, quickly have a rest after having dinner. We have to go to the hospital later." Hearing her mentioning the word 'hospital', Jarold thought of something all of a sudden. He raised his head and asked, "Why are you guys going to the hospital?"
Only then did he remember that he had cinside to wait for Maddox.
He had almost forgotten about his intentions for coming here because of this meal. He felt that he had cto accompany them to have dinner during New Year's Eve. He had even forgotten that Maddox was not there. Jarold immediately felt uneasy.
"Where is Sebastian?" He asked.
When he mentioned Maddox, Minerva didn't respond. Vera looked around and didn't dare to say anything. Jarold put down his tableware. He was no longer in the mood to eat. "I'm asking you guys a question." "Jarold, why are you so annoying? If you want to wait here, then just wait, but we have the right to choose not X
