Twenty five
Hilda Bassey looked at Olivia Fred with a jealous expression; she narrowed her eyes with a hatred look in her eyes, but because her head was lowered, people would not see it. That place, everything should be here; Alex Taylor should treat her like this, not like that bitch.
Olivia Fred looked at Hilda Bassey; she could understand what was going through her mind, even though her head was lowered. She snickered and put some food in her spoon. She raised her hand towards Alex Taylor to feed him.
Hilda Bassey scoffed when she saw this; now she could see Olivia Fred embarrass herself. Almost everyone knew that Alex Taylor does not like using someone's spoon and bowl. She was sure he would reject her very soon. She looked at Olivia Fred with a gloating expression, like she could not wait for her to embarrass herself. Hilda Bassey looked at Alex. She saw that Alex Taylor did not move from where he sat, and she smiled. She knew it; she tried it with him, and he rejected her coldly when she did. Then she found out from Nicki Taylor that Alex Taylor just hates using someone's bowl and spoon.
Even Nicki Taylor and Grandma Taylor were watching them. They also knew that Alex hated using someone else's spoon and bowl, so they did not believe that he would accept the food.
Alex Taylor was shocked when he saw this, but he felt excited more and quickly ate the food because he was afraid that her hand would hurt her if she held the spoon for too long.
Hilda Bassey was shocked; she opened her mouth and was unable to close it. Alex Taylor really accepted her food, the one she used her spoon to take for him? She looked at Alex Taylor like she had just seen a ghost. Is he really the real Alex? She thought.
Nicki Taylor and Grandma Taylor were also equally shocked, but they smiled happily after seeing them get so alone. They acted like they did not see anything and continued eating.
Hilda Bassey narrowed her eyes at Olivia Fred. She took a fish that was near and put it in Alex's bowl with a smile. "You can try this; it is very delicious and good," She said with a natural smile, like what she did was nothing.
Alex Taylor frowned; he did not move and looked at his bowl in disgust.
He looked at Olivia Fred. "I want to eat meat," He said.
"Huh?" Olivia Fred asked, stunned because she could not understand what he was trying to say. Meat was not far from him, and he was telling her that he wanted to eat meat. She does not understand what is going on.
Alex Taylor looked at her. "I am hungry," He said, looking at her with a pitiful expression.
Olivia Fred looked at his bowl and said, "Eat then. Did anyone ask you not to eat?" She asked him, looking at him.
He looked at his bowl with a disgusted expression. "I don't want that; it is too dirty, so disgusting." He said it coldly and without hesitation.
Hilda Bassey's face was stuffed, and she turned pale. She looked at Alex Taylor, but he was not even looking at her; instead, his attention was focused on Olivia Fred. 'Does he mean that she was dirty?' She thought. She felt so embarrassed that she wished she could just leave. She regretted not leaving earlier; if she had, none of this would have happened.
Olivia Fred chuckled when she understood what he meant. Okay, I understand," She said, and she glanced at Hilda Bassey to see her reaction. She was embarrassed, as expected, but she was still sitting down there with a smile, even though the smile seemed forced. Her face was stiff.
"Tsk tsk," Olivia Fred smiled; she was really thick-skinned. She was still able to stay even though she has been thoroughly embarrassed by Alex.
She used her spoon to help Alex Taylor pick some food. Then she fed him; she started feeding him with her own spoon and bowl as well. Alex Taylor was humming along as he ate, and it could be seen that he was enjoying the food very well.
They soon finished eating their meal. Olivia Fred arranged the dishes that have been used and carried them. Hilda Bassey stood up when she saw this. "I will help you," She offered.
Olivia Fred stopped her with a smile and said, No, it is alright. You are a visitor after all; we cannot allow a visitor to do what I am supposed to do," She said with a smile.
Hilda Bassey Bassey's face stiffened yet again. She understood the implications of those words. She could only sit down. She was excited when she saw that Alex Taylor did not follow Olivia Fred Fred this time. She went ahead and sat down in front of him, still in the dining room.
