"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.
