Chapter 45
At night, everyone sat at the dining table to eat.
百
Because Darell was a man who followed the rules and etiquette very well, the Woods family basically adhered to the rules of “no speaking while eating” and “chewing slowly without making a sound.
Then, Greg, who had just returned, realized that the rules that everyone had followed for more than 20 years had been broken.
Nina said. “Humphrey, help me with a meatball
“Humphrey, I want that piece of briskett
“Humphrey, the fried tish fillet looks good. Get me some.”
Nina kept nagging and asking Humphrey to put food on her plate.
Humphrey, who had always been the most well–behaved but also the most distant, actually did as he was told without any complaints. He would help Nina with whatever she wanted to cat
After getting her the food she wanted, he would even ask very considerately. Do you want more? What else do you want to eat? If it’s not enough, I’ll get the chefs to make more.”
This made Jessica, who had never been treated so well by Humphrey, Jealous.
She couldn’t take it anymore and put down her fork with a bang. Then, she gritted her teeth and said to Nina, “Nina, why can’t you do it yourself? Why do you need Humphrey to pick up food for you when you’re eating!”
She thought. ‘Humphrey has never helped me with the food I want, not even once!
Why does Nina get to have something I can’t have!
Since he never does this for me, Nina can’t get it either!
Nina did not understand why Jessica was flipping out.
After Nina swallowed the fish fillet, she said to Jessica righteously. “I surely can do it myself, but with Humphrey helping me, I can eat more efficiently.
She thought that it wa

Jessica could not accept this explanation and thought. What kind of stupid reason is that?‘
She said with a darkened expression, “No one is matching your food from you! Can’t you eat slowly?”
Nina said ruditrously, “No!”
How dare you?” Jessica was furious and was about to figlo. Nina
Darell glanced at her and said calmly, “Enough now Why are you n
making so much noise during mealtime?
“Dad“” When Jessica saw that Darell was actually lecturing her, her eyes widened. She pointed at Nina indignantly and said, “Nina isn’t following the
uler now. Not only is she wolling down her food, but she’s also making a lot of noise. Why are you lecturing me only?”
Darell asked calmly. “What’s the use of lecturing her? Do you think

When Nina heard Greg’s vicious in
idea, she turned around and looked at him. “Greg, are you looking for trouble!”
Greg nonchalantly rested his chin on his hand and smiled at Nina. “Am I looking for trouble? You broke the Woods family’s rules. I’m asking Da punish you according to the family rules. Can’t I do that?“.
Nina retorted, “I don’t care what rules you have, but if you want to hit me, I advise you not to do it. If you insist on hitting me, take the responsibility if you’re crippled”
I’ll fight b
back! I won
“You’re very arrogant.” Greg smiled more brightly. His voice was
mely gentle, but the words he said were very harsh. “Since: the Woods family’s rules, please get out. Don’t stay because you’re not welcome here.”
“Gree!” Humphrey’s tone was slightly heavy, and his eyes were
filled with warning.

don’t follow
Greg knew that Humphrey was protecting Nina now, so he looked directly at Darell and smiled. “Dad, you heard what Nina said just now, right What’s the point of keeping such an uncultured girl‘ Just let her pack up and get lost.”
Nina rolled away as soon as he came up. Jessica was simply impressed by Greg asking Nina to get lost right away.
Compared to what Greg was doing, her bicker with Nina previously meant nothing.
Humphrey pursed his lips and said nothing.
He looked at Greg who was adding fuel to the fire and Jessica who was secretly looking forward to trouble. Then, he said to Darell. “Dad, Nina has just returned. If she doesn’t know the rules, we can teach her. We can’t just tell her to get lost randomly. Only kids will do this, and it’s not advisable
Greg narrowed his eyes. “Humphrey, are you accusing me of being childish?”
Humphrey turned around and smiled. “I’m just telling the truth. Are you taking it personally?”
Greg and Humphrey began to confront each other again.
Jessica glared at Nina. “Nina, are you happy now? Humphrey and Greg used to have a good relationship. They’re arguing because you’re back!”
Nina glanced at Jessica. “That’s none of my business. Why are you always accusing me? Do I look like a pushover to you? If you keep spouting nonsense, Ill bear you up!”
Then, Nina tugged at Humphrey’s shirt and said, “Stop arguing. He just wants me to leave, When a month is up, I’ll leave by myself. You don’t need to chase me away!
In any case, the guys at the division said that Nina would stay with the Woods family for at least a month.
After a month, Nina would leave right away
When Humphrey heard this, he frowned. “Nina, don’t talk nonsense. This is your home. Where are you going?”
However, Greg clapped his hands and said, “Really? Nina, you better keep your word. Get lost in a month!”
Humphrey said, “Greg, shout up?”
Durell saw that they were arguing while just having dinner. He said to everyone in a low voice. “Shut up and eat, everyone. That includes you, Nina”
Nina pouted and thought, ‘If we can’t talk while eating, you should have said so earlier. When in Rome, do as the Romans do. You could’ve dacussed it with me‘
After dinner, Darell stopped Greg, who was about to out for a walk. Durell reminded him, “Greg, you’ve been too popular recently. Be careful when you go out. If anything happens, discuss it with Humphrey. Don’t mess around”
shrey and I are doing.
Greg glanced at Humphrey who was getting fruit for Nina not far away with a mocking expression “Dad, look at how Humphrey
anything with him nicely“:
When Humphrey heard this, he cut the apple and hunded it to Nina. Then, he looked up at Greg and smiles calmly. “If you talk nicely. Ell discuss it with you. But if you deliberately book for trouble, you’d better stay away.
Garg complamed to Darell, “Look, Dad, Humphrey is so mean?
Darell sighed. Ther
rak imahing he could do about Greg
In the past, Greg was the mount clifficult to discipline. He always caused trouble and was unruly and dificult to discipline. Although he became much more obedient with Darell’s lecturing, the rebellious nature in hâùm had never been completely eliminated.

As Greg grew up, he became more and more good at disguising himself. Even Darell could not do anything to him.
Greg suddenly said, “Well, speaking
eaking of which, I really have something to discuss with
you
guys.”
Greg thought of something and looked at Nina and Jessica. He smiled and said. “Recently, a variety show has contacted me. It’s a family–oriented Man vs. Wild live variety show. I want to invite my two sisters to participate with me. I wonder it everyone has any objections.”
