Chapter 1911
"I''m not in a hurry. I can take it anyway," Betty Starmount said.
"All right then, as you wish," X Quest replied.
Jeremy Quest helplessly rubbed Betty''s back before gazing at his daughter.
"Betty is very stubborn. I have advised her to reach out to you, but she wouldn''t. She is afraid you might prescribe her with traditional medicine."
"Well, remember toe to me if you can''t take it anymore," X said as she looked up at Betty.
Betty immediately nodded, silently sighing in relief.
Meanwhile, X carefully filled everyone''s bowl with porridge.
After breakfast, Betty walked into the kitchen and carried arge bowl of bird''s nest into the dining room, cing it on the table before distributing the contents into several bowls.
"None for me, thanks," Stanley spoke up. "Can''t stomach the stuff."
Betty nodded with a knowing smile. "I know, that''s why I didn''t fill yours."
After that, she ced a bowl of bird''s nest in front of X, who did not hesitate to pick up her spoon and began eating.
Betty then turned her attention to Jeremy, cing another bowl in front of him.
He smiled. "Thank you, Betty."
He then picked up his spoon and devoured his portion inrge mouthfuls.
Betty sat back down after serving Jeremy, without eating the remaining bird''s nest.
"Aren''t you going to have some? Why do you never eat any of it?" Jeremy asked.
Betty smiled. “No, I don''t like it. You are not feeling well, and X is pregnant. This stuff is good for the baby, so you guys should have more of it."
"You should have some anyway, even if you don''t like it. It''s good stuff," Jeremy told her.
"Don''t worry about me. Don''t mind me, hurry up and eat it," she replied in a soft and gentle voice.
Meanwhile, X did not participate in the conversation and continued to dine elegantly.
When Betty saw how satisfied Jeremy looked as he ate, the smile on her face vanished.
"Jeremy, I''ll apany you to the hospital after the meal," Betty said.
"You''re so clingy," he smiled teasingly. "Fine, as you wish."
Betty''s grin gradually widened until her facial expression froze out of the blue.Property ? 2024 N0(v)elDrama.Org.
