When Gemma saw Hector coming out, her
expression immediately changed. She gently
said, “Today, I made creamy shrimp stew,
which you like, and also roast pork rib.”
Hector nodded slightly and sat down, “Thank
you, but you don’t have to do that. Let the
maids make meals.”
I was also pulled over to the table. I sat down
while trembling, but I was very conscious and
sat in the farthest position from Hector.
Gemma smiled insincerely, “Jenna, you liked
to stick to Hector before, right? You always
sat on the seat nearest to him.
I instantly raised my hand, with a humble
attitude, “Mr. Weston belongs to you, Ms.
Madsen. Only you can sit next to Mr. Weston.
I am not worthy!”
Hector’s forehead veins bulged with anger,
“You… How dare you…”
I was really confused. I didn’t know why
Hector got angry.
Didn’t he always feel annoyed when I stuck to
him?
In the past, when I stuck to him, he always
frowned. He called me shameless and clingy.
Now, I didn’t bother him any longer. I even
helped him get close to the woman he loved.
Shouldn’t he feel happy?
Gemma’s eyes flashed a hint of anger,
“Hector, don’t always be so harsh on Jenna.”
Then she gave each of us a piece of rib.
“Try out my cooking,” Gemma said gently
with a smile.
Looking at the greasy pork rib on my plate, I
felt nauseous and almost vomited.
I had a stomach problem after spending such
a long time in the mental hospital.
A plate of cold vegetable soup and half a
leftover bun were my meals for the day.
The director laughed sarcastically, “You
despicable woman, you are worse than pigs
and dogs. It’s already generous of me not to
let you starve to death.”
Every day, with only such a small amount of
cold food, I often found myself hungry to the
point where my stomach acid would rise.
Some terrible patients even used their feet to
step on my only food, kicked over my soup,
and urinated on my food.
So, I would often stay hungry for the whole
day.
And now, my stomach was no longer able to
digest food properly.
“Eat.” Gemma stared at me intently.
Her eyes were filled with a strong threat. She
seemed to say that if I didn’t have the rib, she
<
would again send me to the mental hospital.
Hector squinted and silently urged me with a
dangerous expression.
He must have thought that I was targeting
Gemma.
I endured the nausea and struggled to slice
the meat off the rib and took a bite.
After I swallowed the meat, I felt nauseated.
I covered my mouth and quickly ran to the
bathroom to vomit.
“Ugh.” I only felt better when my stomach
was empty.
Due to discomfort in the stomach, tears
welled up in the corners of my eyes.
I didn’t know when Hector came in.
“What on earth… happened to you?”
Rarely, I felt anxiety and panic in his voice.
“I…”
I was just about to say something when I
heard the sound of a plate breaking in the
kitchen.
I also heard Gemma’s exclamation, “Hector!”
I watched quietly as Hector hurriedly ran out.
