In the evening, Master Collins sent Baldrick over, saying that he would like everyone to eat dinner at the Collins family home. Baldrick explained, "Last night was New Year's Eve, and everyone didn't get together to have a meal, so lets make up for it by eating together today."

Going to the Collins family's house for a meal?

Minerva was a little hesitant.

Baldrick smiled and explained softly, "The Old Master has already sent a car to pick up Miss Abigail."

A thought came to her mind. "Baldrick, do you mean that Auntie has already agreed?"

When she saw him nodding, she knew that she had no choice but to go. However, Vera was in such a drunken state, and she would definitely not be able to go. There must be someone left to take care of her. Just then, Sam came out of the room, frowned and said, "There's something wrong with Vera."

Upon hearing his words, Minerva's expression changed. She walked over to Vera's room quickly and went over to her side.

"What's wrong?" Minerva asked.

Sam came over and said, "I thought she was drunk. I didn't expect that she kept on talking nonsense. Then, she began to break out in cold sweat. I tested the temperature on her forehead. It seems that she has a fever."

She had a fever...

"Why did she have a fever for no reason? And, what happened? Why did she get so drunk when she came back with you?"

Sam explained, "Young Madam, when I met her, she was walking alone on the street. She wore very little clothing and was crying. I felt that something was wrong, so I took her to a restaurant to eat. Later... She said that she wanted to drink some wine, and I couldn't stop her."

Minerva frowned after hearing his words. She had gone out with Quill earlier, but when Sam met her, she was alone. Moreover, according to his description, Quill must have done something, or his words had hurt Vera's heart.

How could this be...

When Minerva saw Vera like this, she also began to feel uncomfortable. Originally, she thought that this was a good chance for Vera to be alone with Quill. She didn't expect that it would cause such big harm to her.

Could it be that she had really forced this matter to happen?
