Eva Hayes dumps half a plate of fried meat onto Victoria Thornton's dish, glances at her niece, and sneers.
"What do you know, girl? Pregnant women should eat what they crave, or else the child will be born with red eyes. Your sister-in-law isn't pregnant, what are you arguing for?"
With a "bang," the old man's chopsticks slammed onto the dining table.
"Tell the cook to make more of whatever Daemon's wife likes to eat! Running around with a plate all the time, can't even eat peacefully!"
Eva Hayes reluctantly sits back down, stealing a glance at the old man before putting the plate back.
After breakfast, Daxton Lancaster is called by the old man, "Both families go home, Daxton and his wife stay behind."
"Dad, we're heading out." Arthur Saunders and his wife greet the old man and get up to leave.
Eva Hayes grumbles in dissatisfaction, shouting at her husband who was just about to stand up, "What are you dawdling for? The old man didn't keep you!"
