Chapter 10 No Apology No Food
Louis walked over and saw pale yellow petals floating on the water in the porcin cup. Although it
looked nice, he sneered, "You don''t seem hungry."
Unwilling to admit defeat, nche stubbornly said, "I don''t have the habit of having breakfast. And I
like to drink tea in the morning."
While speaking, she slightly raised her chin. When Louis met her clear eyes, he thought they were
as clean as water. So, he was stunned, wondering why a cruel and vicious woman had such clear
eyes.
Soon, he returned to his senses and put on a cold face. But recalling how she had held the tea and
slowly said it was delicious, he was amused. He could not hold back hisughter for long, so he
quickly walked to the closet.
nche gave him a sideways nce, thinking his expression was strange. She rolled her eyes,
picked up a book, and opened it.
After changing the tie, Louis walked to the door. Then, he paused and said, "You will not get any
food until you apologize. Don''t let me hear you say badnguage again. Otherwise, I will make you
regret it."
She would not get any food until she apologized.
nche squeezed the book in her hand, cursing him in her heart. She would never apologize!
He waited for a while, but she still did not admit her mistake. So, he mmed the door shut in
anger. Outside the door, he looked at servants and ordered, "Guard the door! Don''t give her food
without my permission."
nche gritted her teeth with hatred, thinking he was a lunatic! How could he forbid her from
eating? It was abuse.
She put down the book and went to open the door. Sure enough, it was locked. She touched her
empty stomach and wondered why she had always been starved these days. She had only had a
meal yesterday. And today, she had nothing to eat again.
Enduring the hunger, she picked up her phone and called Ang.
"Miss Kent, Ang is asleep. Do you want me to wake her up?"
It was Gloria who had answered the call. nche had hired her to nurse Ang.
"Let her sleep. Gloria, how is my grandma doing?"
Ang was awakened by the call, so she said, "Is nche calling me? Let me talk to her."
After Gloria gave her the phone, she earnestly said, "nche, I''m fine. You just got married. The
Herbart family is noble, so they must have many rules. Have they wronged you?"
Thinking of the scar on nche''s face, Ang felt heartbroken and believed it was hard for her to
gain a foothold in the Herbart family.
nche was touched to hear her words. Sure enough, Ang always cared about her the most.
"Grandma, don''t worry. You know me well, right? I will never wrong myself! I''m fine here. The
Herbart family treats me well. You just need to take care of yourself. I hope you can recover as soon
as possible.
"That''s good! I''m fine. Don''t worry."

After hanging up the phone, nche took off the mask and returned to the tea table,
Then, she picked up the tea and took a sip. Now, she could only appease her hunger with water.
...
When Louis finished the meeting and returned to his office in the Herbart Group building at noon,
his assistant had prepared a sumptuous lunch for him.
Thinking of something, he called Sam in and asked, "Is there any call from home?"
Sam was at a loss, wondering why would his family call him.
"No."
The sharpness in Louis''s eyes increased when he said, "You can go out now."
It seemed nche had not apologized yet. She looked thin, so he had not expected her to be able
to endure hunger till now.
No! Such a vicious woman would not obediently endure hunger. Maybe she had yed tricks at
home to get food.
Louis picked up his phone and dialed his home number.
A servant answered the call and said, "Mr. Herbart, good noon."
"Did you give that woman food?"
The servant trembled in fright when replying, "No! Didn''t you say we must not give Mrs. Herbart
food without your permission?"
Louis pressed his eyebrows and said, "Has she ever gotten out?"
"No, Mrs. Herbart has been in the bedroom all the time. Yesterday, she only had one meal. Maybe
she has fainted from hunger."
She had fainted from hunger? Louis narrowed his eyes. nche had a slender figure and looked
thin. She might have fainted from hunger for real.
"Since you have such a guess, why didn''t you go to check on her? Hurry up!"
