In the past, they did not come over. Now, they came over so frequently. Why were they so enthusiastic?
Matthew stared at them with a mocking gaze. Lincoln was a little unhappy. He was Matthew's elder after all. How could Matthew be so rude?
However, he pretended to smile. "That's because we heard that you guys are moving back. It's great that you guys are back. The elderly will be happy. It's naturally best that the family can be reunited. They can also help to take care of Valerie.
"I'm here to see if there's anything that I can help with!"
With that, he tugged at Fred, who said perfunctorily, "Yes, yes. We're here to help."
Valerie replied politely, "In that case, thank you for going to the trouble."
Lincoln hurriedly said, "It's no trouble at all! We're family. There's no need to be so polite!"
"Yeah." Holly let out a smile that reached her eyes. "We are all family. Fred is in the wrong. I have heard about what happened that day during the banquet. Don't take it to heart. This boy merely talks harshly, but he doesn't have bad intentions. Early this morning, he told me that you guys will be moving into the Grant Manor today and urged us to come over and help."
After saying that, she took out a gift box.
"This is seafood chowder. I specially bought this for you, Valerie. I hope you'll like it."
As Holly spoke, she handed it over, but Matthew did not take it. Since he was holding Valerie in his arms, naturally, Valerie could not reach out to hold it.
Holly's hands were frozen mid-air. At that moment, she did not know what to do.
The atmosphere was a little awkward. Lincoln took it upon himself to grab it, saying, "You really don't know how to read the room!"
As he spoke, he waved to the side, and the servant quickly came over to take the seafood chowder and casually placed it in the corner.
Good lord.
There were so many things in that corner. In comparison, her boxes of seafood chowder were nothing impressive. If she had known about it sooner, she would not have brought it over and embarrassed herself!
When Holly saw that, she frowned deeply, feeling greatly annoyed.
Following that, she smiled. "Is there anything else you haven't packed? We'll help too. Don't just stand there, Fred. Move all these over. Can't you see that everyone else is busy?"
Lincoln chimed in, "Yeah. All of you are youngsters, so you might not know that there are certain taboos associated with moving into a house while a woman is pregnant. As a person with experience in this area, I naturally know about it."
