Simon felt embarrassed and nervous when the delivery man finished talking.
He thought, 'Why ... why did he come just at this time?'
He saw Audrey staring at him questioningly.
So he rushed to the door.
"Mr. Randall, here..."
The man was just about to hand the food to Simon when Simon interrupted him and pushed him out of the door. "You've got the wrong place. There is no one here called Randall."
The man carefully checked the address.
"No, the food is clearly ordered by Mr. Randall from this ward. Is there no one called Randall here?"
Simon didn't answer.
Simon still wanted to chase the delivery man away, but Audrey came and took the bags.
"No. You didn't go wrong."
The man heaved a sigh of relief.
"That's good! I wish you a pleasant meal. Please give me five-star praise on the phone. Thank you!"
After he left, Simon muttered in a low voice, "Five-star praise? You got me embarrassed. I'm gonna give you zero!"
Audrey took the bags in and put them on the bedside table.
Kylee pretended to know nothing about the food and acted as if it was none of her business.
Anyway, she didn't eat any of those things at all. She could completely shirk her responsibility.
Simon forced himself to follow Audrey.
"Explain it!" Audrey said.
Simon admitted in a low voice, "I confess that I ordered these." Property © NôvelDrama.Org.
"Really? Didn't you just say that you only bought a roast chicken?"
"Well, maybe these are thrown in by the restaurant?"
Audrey mocked, "How generous! Tell me which restaurant it is. One roast chicken sold with a roast duck, a box of trotters and a box of chicken feet thrown in!"
Simon argued, "I forget it!"
Audrey snorted.
"It seems that you've learned not only to lie, but also to forget!"
Simon didn't reply.
Kylee felt guilty when she saw Simon being scolded, so she also admitted, "Enough, Elliana. Stop scolding Simon. It was me who wanted to eat these and asked him to buy them for me."
Audrey became serious.
"Grandma, I told you that these are not good for your health. So I advised you not to eat them."
Kylee cautiously looked at Audrey like a child who had done something wrong.
"I ... I won't eat anymore. So, Elliana, don't be angry."
Audrey turned to laugh as she looked at Kylee's wronged expression.
"Alright, I was just teasing you."
Kylee looked at Audrey in surprise. "Are you really not angry? I ate roast chicken and asked Simon to buy so much meat for me. You're not angry?"
"Who said I'm not angry?" Audrey glared at Kylee again.
Kylee whispered, "You ... you just said that."
"What I'm angry about is that you wanted to eat, but you didn't tell me!"
"You really mean it? You didn't allow me to eat before."
"You can't eat these very often, but it's okay to eat them occasionally!" Audrey said seriously, "Also, you must know when to stop!"
Audrey tore off the other leg of the roast chicken, "You can only eat one chicken leg now."
"Just one leg?" Kylee pitifully looked at the entire chicken.
Audrey looked at Kylee with a half-smile.
"Grandma, which one do you like? Eat a whole chicken now but never eat again? Or once eat a little but eat often in the future?"
Kylee took the chicken leg in Audrey's hand as a reply to her.
Audrey looked at Kylee with amusement. Then she glared at Simon. "I'm going to go through the discharge formalities for Grandma now. You stay here with her and watch her not eat too much. There are surveillance cameras in the room. If I find she eats too much, I will ask your uncle to send you to the army tomorrow!"
"So ruthless!"
Simon trembled in fear.
"Okay, I got it!"
Seeing Simon's response, Audrey was relieved to leave.
...
In the emergency room, Wendy slowly woke up.
Toby and Zoe held her hand in surprise.
Zoe said, "Wendy! Finally! You finally wake up."
"Wendy, my dear. Tell me, how are you feeling now?"
Wendy looked at them and suddenly cried grievously.
Toby immediately wiped away her tears.
"Wendy, what's wrong?"
Zoe said with a sullen look, "You know what's wrong! Wendy could have gotten the shares, but that Audrey Koch suddenly came out with Audrey Munn's commission letter. Now, everyone on the Internet
accuses Wendy of grabbing her sister's shares. If ... If you hadn't signed the contract at the press conference, the situation wouldn't have become like this."
Toby sighed, "Zoe, I had no choice."
"Great! You had no choice but turned our daughter into a villain. My poor girl!"
Wendy hurriedly grabbed Zoe's arm.
"Mom, it's not Dad's fault. It is my bad luck."
"That's not some bad luck! Audrey grabbed your shares on purpose. She has disappeared for years and now comes out suddenly for shares, right when you were about to sign the contract. Obviously, she wanted to make a fool of you in public. And now ... she did it." Zoe said with indignation.
"Mom, please stop."
Toby sighed and looked at Wendy. "Wendy, how do you feel now? The doctor said that you fainted because of tremendous fury."
"I'm fine. Let's get out of the hospital. I don't want to stay here!"
Zoe nodded repeatedly.
"Okay. Let's get out of here now."
...
Audrey took the elevator to the first floor with a lot of receipts and prepared to settle them.
Just as she stepped out of the elevator, she met Toby, Zoe, and Wendy who just came out of the emergency department.
Now the sisters met each other again.
Audrey appeared and took away the company shares that Wendy was about to get. To her, Audrey was her enemy who had robbed her of her shares.
When she saw Audrey, hatred filled her heart.
