Chapter 2131
"Mr. Trevino, are you going to eat it yourself, or do you want me to feed you?" Sylvia stared at Kendrix, he had no intention of picking up the silverware, so she was ready to feed him.
Kendrix only frowned. "I am not hungry, put the food down."
"You have to eat even if you are not hungry." Sylvia did not think much of it, and she started threatening him. "If you won't eat, I will feed you." Her gaze was bright and determined. She looked at Kendrix, standing by her decision. If he would not eat, she would feed him.
Kendrix continued to stare at Sylvia, still had no intention of taking over the oatmeal.
Claudia could not control herself anymore. She laughed and joked beside them.
"Oh Sylvia, it looks like Mr. Trevino doesn't want to do it himself. Why don't you just feed him?"
Sylvia was stunned, she turned around and looked at Claudia.
It seemed like she was trying to stir up trouble.
In truth, she was too anxious earlier and forgot that Claudia was right behind her.
When she saw her, Sylvia blushed.
Claudia laughed even more bashfully. "Kendrix, your student is so concerned about you. It is not right for you to continue acting so arrogantly." "Can you shut up?" Kendrix asked in a low voice.This content © Nôv/elDr(a)m/a.Org.
Claudia smiled. "Look, he is already angry. He blames me for talking too much. If I hadn't said anything, you might have already started to feed him." Sylvia herself knew very well that if Claudia had not said anything, she would really have started to feed him herself.
However, as of then, she was really too embarrassed.
She could only turn her head around and stared at Kendrix without saying anything. She pursed her lips, she looked pitiful.
Seeing her expressions and feeling threatened, Kendrix finally took over the oatmeal and started to eat it quietly.
Sylvia blushed once again.
Claudia's smile was as sly as a fox.
Lowell was watching by the stairs. At first, he frowned, but soon, he relaxed. The way they got along with each other was really surprising.
Kendrix doted on Sylvia so much too. Even though Kendrix was a cold person on the outside, he would still give in and eat the porridge when he saw her worried look.
The discovery comforted Lowell's worried heart by a little.
It seemed like there was no need for him to worry so much.
In truth, his only concern in the beginning was how cold Kendrix was, and he was even her teacher. However, he thought that their relationship was not that bad then.
Lowell went down from the stairs, he sat down by the sofa and looked up at Kendrix.
Kendrix was still eating the oatmeal quietly, he did not make a sound when he ate. It seemed like he was quite a well-mannered man.
The burden in Lowell's heart was immediately relieved, he felt a lot more relaxed. He was no longer as depressed as he was before. Kendrix glanced at him, he then continued to eat quietly.
Lowell smiled and looked towards Claudia.
Claudia shrugged.
At that moment, the butler had started to serve the dishes. Not long after, the table was filled with a hearty lunch.
The table was filled with all kinds of delicious delicacies.
It looked really delicious.
The moment the dishes were served, they could smell the fragrance at once.
Claudia could not help but to exclaim, "Wow, it smells so good."
"It seems like you are really hungry. Go ahead and eat." Lowell stood up and told Claudia in a gentlemanly manner, "You can use me as support to get to the table over there."
"No need, I can do it myself." Claudia immediately leaped towards the table with one leg.
Lowell did not force her, he turned around and looked at Sylvia and Kendrix, he then said, "Go ahead, Mr. Trevino."
"Thank you." Kendrix stood up and replied lightly.
Sylvia continued to stare at Kendrix. She stared at him just like that, her eyes never left him, and she didn't mind if Lowell as right next to her as she reminded Kendrix. "You must absolutely not skip breakfast in the future, do you understand?"
Kendrix did not answer her.
"I am talking to you, do you hear me or not?" Sylvia asked again. It seemed like she was not going to give up until she got his word.
Kendrix continued to consume the oatmeal in his bowl, he then looked at Sylvia and said, "Claudia lied to you."
"What?" Sylvia was shocked.
Kendrix smirked, looked as if he was smiling.
"Are you saying that Claudia lied about you always skipping breakfast, and you actually have breakfast?" Sylvia came back to her senses. Kendrix only nodded.
"What?" Sylvia was confused, she turned around and looked at Claudia, who was limping to the dining table with one leg.
What a detestable girl. She actually lied to her about that, it made her feel so nervous.
"Then, did you have breakfast or not?"
She would settle accounts with Claudia later. The most important thing to know right then was whether Kendrix knew how to take care of himself, and if he would eat his breakfast daily or not.
"I had a cup of milk, as well as some eggs this morning," Kendrix said.
Upon hearing that, Sylvia finally felt relieved.
She looked up into Kendrix's eyes, and her pure and concerned eyes met with his. She heaved a sigh of relief, and she no longer looked so tensed.
"It is good that you have had breakfast. In the future, you have to have breakfast every day. You need to take care of yourself, okay?"
It felt like she was giving orders to a little child.
Lowell was listening to their conversation by one side, he felt that he was a third wheeler.
He quickly turned around and walked to the table, he did not want to hear what those two were talking about.
He felt that it was a little awkward.
When he reached the dining table, he lowered his voice and told Claudia, "You lied to Sylvia just now, be careful. She will settle things with you."
"When have I ever lied to her?" Claudia asked.
"Aren't you the one who lied about Mr. Trevino not having breakfast?"
"Of course not," Claudia said, "Kendrix rarely eats breakfast. I was just pointing out that fact."
"I don't know which one of you cousins are telling the truth and which one is lying anymore, but it has nothing to do with me." Lowell smiled, he thought that he should not meddle in other people's affairs anymore.
nét
"Of course I am telling the truth. Perhaps Kendrix just doesn't want Sylvia to worry too much." Claudia looked a Lowell and explained, "Look, you don't have to worry about them at all. In truth, Kendrix really cares about Sylvia. Their fate is quite strange."
"Indeed." Lowell agreed.
"What? It felt like you really opposed of them so much a little while ago. Why does it look like you changed your attitude after going upstairs? Now, it looks like you are quite satisfied with Kendrix," Claudia said again.
"It is because Sylvia is very determined," Lowell spoke frankly, "I think that she knows what she is doing."
"Of course, kids nowadays are really smart." Claudia smiled and said, "So, Mr. Jones, don't be such a traditional person. You are still living in the world of the past."
Lowell was stunned, and he asked himself whether he was really still stuck with the mindset of the past.
Was he really a man of such staleness?
"I heard that you have studied abroad in the United States for plenty of years. Why doesn't it feel that way at all?" Claudia asked again.
Lowell only twitched his lips. "I was born here. It doesn't matter where I studied, I know very well that this is where I belong. Nothing can change that." "I did not expect you to be so sentimental." Claudia was surprised.
Lowell spoke, "I did not expect a girl like you who only knows how to joke around to be a policewoman too. I thought that a police would be very
serious."
"Who said that?" Claudia smiled. "The police are just ordinary people too. We have every type of personalities that a normal person has."
Lowell agreed, "That's true."
"So, does that mean you would respect your niece and my cousin's choice now?"
"Of course I will respect it." That was the only reply that Lowell find appropriate.
Since that was Sylvia's choice, then he would show her some respect.
Claudia nodded. "Not bad at all. You have improved a lot, it is much better than my expectations."
Lowell smiled again.
Kendrix and Sylvia were not at the dining table yet, and Sebastian had not come downstairs either. That was why neither one of them touched their
cutleries, they were not in a rush.
That was the most basic etiquette of treating guests.
Lowell called Sebastian and said, "Sebastian, it's time for lunch. Come down and eat."
"Uncle, I am not hungry yet. Why don't you eat first?" Sebastian did not really want to go downstairs.
"Everyone is waiting for you. If you don't come, how can we start eating?" Lowell said.
After a slight pause, Sebastian had no choice but to say, "Okay, I understand. I will come down right now."
Claudia heard Lowell's call and asked him, "So, is your nephew coming down to eat or not?"
When Lowell heard that, he raised his eyebrows and looked at her, as if he was surprised that she would ask such a question.
"If he isn't coming down, I won't even dare touch my spoon." Claudia explained.
"He's coming down now," Lowell said.
"Oh, that's great."
That would really be great.
Claudia was secretly pleased.
At that moment, Kendrix and Sylvia had already arrived at the table. After they sat down, Sylvia immediately glared at Claudia.
Claudia immediately understood why she was glaring at her like that.
She felt wronged.
She glanced at Kendrix accusingly and said, "Kendrix, I said that you don't eat breakfast, was I wrong?"
"How are you not wrong?" Kendrix asked lightly.
"You never had any breakfast in the past," Claudia spoke it as if it were fact, "We used to grow up together. I have never seen you eat breakfast."
"How long have you not been living with me?" Kendrix asked in return.
Claudia blinked. "About one or two years."
"So, does that mean you are looking at me from a point of view of the past?" Kendrix asked once more.
Claudia was stunned by his question. "Does that mean that you have already changed your habits during the past two years?"
"That's right," Kendrix answered.
"Hey! At least that was how you were back in the past," Claudia said.
Kendrix did not speak. He glanced at Lowell and said faintly, "Mr. Jones, do you know what kind of animal has a big mouth?"
Lowell froze for a second, he felt a sense of sarcasm in his tone.
He could tell that there was a lot of aggression in
his words.
Claudia, who had not come back to her senses, also asked, "An animal with a big mouth, could it be an anteater?"
"Wrong," Kendrix spoke with indifference.
"Then, what is it?"
"A gossiper," Kendrix said expressionlessly.
The atmosphere instantly got awkward.
