Tess caught herself. “Now that you’ve mentioned it, it does come off as rude, doesn’t it?”

Maia frowned. “Well, I’m starving. Let’s eat.”

Keeping her head low, Maia ate quietly.

“Mala, pass Nigel the meatloaf.”

“Aunt Tess…” Maia was reluctant.

“Thanks, Nigel,” Maia said courteously and continued to eat quietly.

Seeing this, Errol was puzzled.
