"Don't tell her yet," Old Master Crawford said immediately. He then glanced at Susan, who was next to him. He wanted to have a peaceful lunch.
"Will do." The butler knew what Old Master Crawford meant.
Susan raised the corner of her mouth with pride. Her efforts had paid off.
During the past few days, many guests came by the house. As the hostess of Crawford Manor, she entertained each guest in good taste and many praised her.
It had shifted Old Master Crawford’s opinion of her.
It was clear that he now favored her...
"Is lunch ready?" Old Master Crawford asked. He intended to leave Allison’s matter aside until he had lunch.
"The cook has gotten everything ready. She prepared all vegetarian dishes as per your instructions. You can have lunch anytime." the butler said.
"Inform the kitchen to serve lunch now." Old Master Crawford walked into the dining room with the help of his cane.
"Got it." The butler hurried to the kitchen.
When Thea heard that they were eating vegetarian food, she shook Yuri's hand and said, "Mom, I want to eat meat."
Yuri was fully aware of Thea's eating habits. She squatted down to look her in the eye. "Dear, everyone at home is eating vegetarian food today. It’s just for today. There’ll be meat tomorrow."
"Ah, we also have to eat vegetarian food for dinner?" Thea frowned deeper. She did not want to eat vegetarian food for dinner as well.
"It was like this before as well." Yuri looked at her daughter with some doubts in her heart. It was the same every year, but Thea had never raised much concern.
‘Why is she so against it now?’
It was the Crawfords' rule to eat vegetarian food for the day, so she did not dare to prepare anything with meat for her daughter. Children were not good at keeping secrets, and the Crawfords would find out what she did.
At that time, a scolding was inevitable.
Seeing that Thea was about to cry, Yuri sighed in her heart that children were inconstant.
In the past, Thea would eat anything as long as the food was delicious, even if it did not have any meat.
However, she was now clamoring for meat.
"Be good. I’ll take you out to eat some delicious food tomorrow." Yuri was afraid that her daughter would cry. After all, the last thing Old Master Crawford wanted to see was someone in the family crying and making trouble during the New Year, so she hurriedly coaxed her.
Thea thought about it for a while and reluctantly agreed.
Yuri walked into the dining room with her daughter.
Allison was upstairs catching up on sleep and did not know that Old Master Crawford had returned. As such, they had a peaceful meal.
After he ate, Old Master Crawford slowly stood up with the help of his cane and said to the butler, "Hold me. I want to go to the study."
Susan, who was on the side, wanted to watch the drama unfold. If Old Master Crawford talked to Allison in the study, she would miss out on it, so she immediately said, "Dad, you don't need to go to the study. We’re all family here. If Allison has something to say, she can say it in the living room, no?"
Old Master Crawford knew what she had in mind when she suggested that. He glared at her and pointed out, "Don't even think about causing any trouble. Everyone, control yourselves today. No one is allowed to make a scene."
Susan pursed her lips contemptuously.
She wanted to see how far Allison would go. She thought that Allison was not looking for Old Master Crawford because of her but it was likely to do with Luke.
The mother and son were at odds. Susan would never get tired of such theatrics.
"Mom, let's go. It’s time for Thea’s nap," Louis said for fear that Susan would dare to go to the study to snoop on their conversation.
"What does it have to do with me? You’re her father. Why do you want me to go?" Susan looked at him, dissatisfied.
