Tessa Harrington looked at Vivian Abbey, unsure whether to accept or refuse the offer. Vivian Abbey said calmly, "Thank you, Madam."
"You girls are around my daughter's age, just call me Auntie Briggs," said Pauline Briggs with a smile.
Vivian Abbey replied respectfully, "Madam, how could I do that?"
"No need for formalities, just call me Auntie Briggs."
"Yes, thank you... Auntie Briggs," Vivian Abbey respectfully answered.
Tessa Harrington, however, sounded much more affectionate, sweetly calling, "Auntie Briggs!"
"Come and eat, everyone. It won't taste as good when it's cold," Pauline Briggs beckoned.
"Alright."
Auntie Ingrid said, as she took the dishes from the thermal container, "Madam has been preparing this since this morning, cooking for more than three hours in the kitchen. Especially this Black Chicken Red Date Soup, it's very nourishing. Madam started simmering it early for you."
