Everybody was shocked to hear Tessa's words, including Master Baker, he didn't quite understand what Tessa was talking about.
Tessa approached the Baker family butler and collected the tea box from his hands, right now she didn't know what she was doing, her thoughts were upside down and this seemed like the right thing to do first.
She doesn't know if the tea box had been tampered with, what if it was poisoned, master Baker had consumed it, what would happen to Master Baker now.
She wanted to wait for after the party, Master Baker would surely understand, but what if something terrible happened before the party ends, she had to come clean now, before everything gets worse.
"Tessa, what are you doing."
Master Baker was confused, why was Tessa collecting the gift back.
Tessa faced Master Baker.
