Alvin glanced at her and began to think about what Camilla was thinking.
Although it was a bit shameful to say so, for a big family, breaking a bow of theirs should not have made her feel so sad.
But Alvin quickly realized that Camilla was most likely worried about her father.
Before Aurelia left, she had specifically told him that Graves would die in a hunting accident a year later.
Looking at the bows and arrows all over the place, as well as the various fencing and equestrian areas in the distance…
Perhaps Graves’s hobbies were extremely dangerous.
As a daughter, Camilla definitely would have been worried.
Moreover, Graves had not returned until now. Perhaps he had encountered some difficult prey.
“Are you worried about your father?”
Alvin suddenly asked.
Camilla’s eyes flashed with surprise. “How do you know? No! How do you know so much about me? Are you also a reincarnator?”
“If I were a reincarnator, I would have recited the poem along with Aurelia.”
Alvin explained that he was not a reincarnator, but Aurelia was.
“Sigh.” Camilla sighed deeply, “I really can’t persuade my father. His love for cold weapons has already seeped deep into his bones. I’m very conflicted. On one hand, I think I shouldn’t care so much. On the other hand, I’m really worried that one day, he would have an accident while hunting.”
Camilla voiced out her worries. At this moment, a servant came from afar and informed her that dinner was ready.
…
This family’s dinner was very fastidious, and there were quite many rules.
But at the very least, there weren’t any rules that required waiting for the master to return before they could start eating.
Therefore, Camilla was temporarily the master of this place, sitting on the master’s seat.
As a guest, Alvin’s status was second only to the master, sitting at the side.
Only the two of them sat at the long dining table.
Looking at the dazzling array of food which was enough to accommodate 20 people but only two people were sitting at the long dining table, Alvin finally temporarily lived a rich life that he had once looked forward to. Such a dinner was something that he couldn’t even imagine before.
However, at this moment, Alvin could only feel a strong sense of discomfort. He felt that his surroundings were too empty.
It was so empty that he could even hear the crisp sound of Camilla’s cutlery.
Camilla had her own explanation for this.
First of all, according to the rules, servants were not allowed to eat at this table. They would wait in another room, preparing to eat the leftovers.
Alvin calculated that for the table of food including the blue lobster in the middle, there would be a lot of leftovers on this table even if he ate as much as he liked. In other words, at this place, even servants could have a sumptuous meal.
As for the siblings, they all chose to leave the villa.
The family rule was that after the children reached adulthood, their father would give them a sum of money and drive them out to live independently. And Camilla still had two years to be in this segment.
Of course, even if they were not driven out, the children would leave on their own because they couldn’t stand the isolation here. They also wanted to make a few friends.
Alvin listened as he tried the lobster.
He had never eaten such a thing before. Of course, it wasn’t that he didn’t like it, but that he couldn’t afford it at all.
So, he didn’t know how it actually tasted before he took a bite of it.
But according to Aurelia, it would be one of Alvin’s favorite food.
To confirm this, Alvin took a piece of white meat with a fork and bit it.
As the juice exploded in his mouth, these were the only words left in Alvin’s mind.
Maybe this was a high-end ingredient. There was no particularly high-end cooking method, but the meat was fragrant and sweet.
Alvin had heard that the lobster only looked elegant, but in fact, it tasted like a crab.
Now, Alvin just wanted to punch that man in the nose to punish him for his nonsense.
“You seem to like this?”
Camilla asked.
“Yes, your food has left a deep impression on me,” Alvin said bluntly.
Camilla nodded, then rang the bell to call an old servant. “Tell the kitchen to send all the lobsters in the refrigerator to this address.”
Camilla wrote down an address on a piece of paper.
Alvin looked up and saw that it was indeed the location of his apartment.
Thinking about how he would be able to serve one of these for every meal when he returned home, Alvin was extremely happy.
Sure enough, it was great to be rich.
All of this was too surreal.
Yesterday, he was just an ordinary worker. He was doing chores that sounded high-class but actually had little room for advancement. Every day, he looked forward to the opportunity to show off his skills, but in reality, every day was the same as the day before.
In the end, in just one day, since he met Aurelia, everything was different. Now, he was eating food that he didn’t dare to imagine before. He was staying in a villa that he could only imagine what it would be like in the past.
Well, it was a pity that the dinner here was a little lifeless. It would be nice if there were more people.
Alvin thought to himself when he suddenly heard a clamor from outside the door.
“Father is back.”
Camilla said after hearing the noise.
Then, Camilla got up, tidied up her cutlery, and moved to the second seat on the other side.
This was obviously to give the master’s seat to her father.
Then, Camilla got up and waited at the door with the servants who swarmed over.
Alvin also wanted to follow her and greet her father at the door together.
But Camilla made a gesture and said at the same time, “You are a guest, there is no need for this etiquette.”
Alvin thought that the rules of this place were really strange.
Then, he heard the sound of steel rubbing against each other, followed by the howls of hounds, getting closer and closer.
The barking of the hounds was understandable to Alvin.
After all, they were hunting, so of course, they had to bring along their excellent hounds.
But the sound of steel scraping against each other made Alvin feel very strange.

Could it be that they were hunting and were wearing armor?
Alvin suddenly remembered that Camilla had once said that her father was a lover of medieval knight culture.
So was he really wearing plate armor?
Just then…
The door opened with the sound of the snarling of dogs..
