Chapter 99 You'd Better Protect Polly!
Fanny and Kevin had been called by Justin to go golfing in the court. Later on, Fanny heard that Polly and Rachel were sent to the kitchen by his mother to cook. She felt it was a rare opportunity, so she rushed over.
She hated Polly and looked down on Rachel. As for former, Kevin was mainly reason. As for Rachel Du, she hated her just. The kind of family is poor even can't afford to eat, still underage need to feed their own people, but it is where the family kind of support for a few years, take yourself as He's half a daughter? Most importantly, she always treated Fanny with cold attitude, which greatly damaged her dignity.
She is so glad to have the two persons at her side.
"Let me see what you two have made? "Ouch!"! It's so hot! "
Fanny walked to her and put a box of cookies on the edge of the table with his elbow. The biscuit that had just come out of the stove rubbed to the ground. Most of the cakes were crushed on the ground.
She pretended to be scalded, rubbed her arm and snapped: "how did you put it in here?"
"Miss Li, I am really sorry." Rachel stopped what she was doing and ran to Fanny Li. "Where did you get burned? Are you okay? "
Fanny rolled her eyes and said, "Don't worry? It's really terrible. I just came out of the furnace and it's as red as burning iron. Why don't you have a try with your bare arm! 'how did you do that? Rachel Du. You have been living in the He Residence for more than half a year. Do you think that you can live here for nothing just like a decent lady? "
Rachel was still apologizing, "Miss Li, the biscuits were just out of the stove and too hot. I put them on the table casually. I didn't expect you to come here..."
"Why didn't you think of that? Do you think you are in your own house? How could she make such a great effort to come here and warn herself not to make any mistake. She even didn't have the qualification to be an adopted daughter, how bad it is! You think you can count on them to take care of you once something happens, don't you? "
Tears were welling up in her eyes. She pitifully argued, "Miss Li, I really don't care..."
"Nothing? The he clan is so big, and there are so many people here today. Even if I didn't come, others would come. It's okay for you to scald me. But what if you hurt me again? But as an orphan without parents, you have always been used to being wild. How could you know the rules? "
Polly Pan could not stand it anymore and snapped: "Miss Li, no distinguished guest likes to squeeze into the kitchen. And now there is half an hour before adding food!"
She didn't plan to have a fight with Fanny, but it was too much. She even mentioned the grief of having no parents. She thought, 'fortunately, Miss. Du is a kind woman. Otherwise, they would have quarreled with each other.'.
"What do you mean? You go to inquire, we Li Family home in A City is one of the best families, who care the food you made!! " With a wave of her hand, she swept the other box of cookies and a large cup of lemon juice on the table to the ground. Original from NôvelDrama.Org.
"They are not made by famous chefs. Don't make a fool of yourself by using them! Rachel, don't you ever think about using these gifts to get the He clan's favor today! And never try to mess around with my cousin! It's disgusting! "
She raised her hand and pushed the two boxes of cookies away. Rachel covered the biscuit with her hands.
"Miss Li, please don't!" "I think you misunderstood. I don't want to make other people like me with this. As for Bruce, I'm an intern secretary now. I get close to him only because of work... "
Fanny interrupted her with distain. "Don't pretend to be pitiful in front of me! I am not a man. I don't know what you are like! Also do not know cousin this is how, the grandfather also praises his good taste But those around him were all green tea. "
"I am not Ouch! " Rachel Du couldn't stand the high temperature and released them.
Fanny looked at her with a sly grin and said in a strange voice, "you're just saying that you have a taste of your own medicine. You've also got yourself burned. It must be very delicious, right? "
"Are you okay?" Polly took her hand and carefully checked her injury. When she touched the iron tool, her arm was completely red and swollen, in sharp contrast to her snow-white and smooth skin around her.
"Nothing serious. It's just a burn!" Rachel shook her head to avoid meeting Polly's eyes, "it's time for lunch. Let's talk after the meal."
"Nonsense! Look, it's so swollen! " Upset and angry, Polly yelled, "why don't you rush to apply medicine to your wound! I'll clean the kitchen! Don't worry. I can do a good job. I have been working in Unusual House all the time. I know something about the distribution of food. "
After hesitating for a while, Rachel nodded, "okay. Thank you."
She had spilled the lemon juice. Fortunately, they had squeezed pineapple juice, and the amount was just right. She felt very strange, why the other members of the he clan all drank pineapple juice, and only Lord He drank lemonade.
She didn't know whether he would be unhappy when the juice was changed into pineapple.
The combination of colors, modeling and other foods was beautiful and elegant. Lord He praised her in front of everyone. However, before the happiness on her face faded away, Lord He suddenly froze and fell on the ground, twitching.
Someone in the crowd said, "there's something wrong with the food today!" Everyone spit out what they were eating.
Those words immediately caused a commotion in Polly's mind. Pineapple juice, sweet and refreshing taste, small biscuit, crisp and strong taste. How could it be wrong?
"Grandpa, grandpa!" Bruce rushed to his grandfather and held him in his arms. He reached out and pinched his grandfather, shouting at the people next to him, "call the ambulance! Hurry up! "
In a daze and doubt, Polly felt the helplessness and anxiety in Bruce's eyes. She didn't know how to respond. Probably she was at a loss.
Because she had no idea what was going on. She had eaten the same food, and didn't vomit like others. How come she had no reaction at all?
Just then, Rachel's phone rang. She said anxiously, "Dear Polly, I suddenly remember that the lemon juice was overturned. And you don't use pineapple juice replace! "
"Why not?"
"Grandfather allergic to pineapple juice and can't drink even a little. I was going to tell you, but in preparing the meal, the glass of lemon juice had been specially ordered. However, an accident happened later. " Suddenly, Rachel raised her voice, "Dear Polly, are you listening to me? Ah! Has he drunk pineapple juice? "
"Yes, he has,"
"What!" "How is Grandpa now? He is allergic and it is terrible. He must be sent to the hospital for emergency treatment at once. His health was not as good as that of a year. She didn't know if he could Take it easy! It's all my fault! I should have told you! Just wait for me. I'm on my way. I'll explain everything. "
"No need! But you don't have to explain to me! " If you have to find one person to take responsibility for this, let her take it alone is better. She couldn't bear to take Rachel get involved in Lord He's accident.
What's more, she was humiliated by Fanny at that time. She was so sad that she could not even care about herself.
It was mainly her fault. If she didn't tell me, why didn't me ask her? She was also curious why she didn't ask the reason as long as Lord He drank lemonade alone?
While waiting for the ambulance, Miss. Jean kept persuading Bruce's mother to take responsibility of Polly
"Who's in charge of the extra lunch today? Who gave Dad the pineapple juice! But where's Rachel? Why isn't it there? " Bruce's mother stared at Polly harshly and asked in an aggressive tone.
Lowering her head, Polly replied, "Rachel got burned and she was sent to the hospital."
Bruce's mother said in a more serious tone, "didn't she tell you that dad is allergic to pineapple juice when she went to the hospital? But Rachel has always been a careful child. She can't be wrong in this matter! "
The implication was that she was the only one who made a mistake. However, Polly didn't care about who should be responsible for the accident at the moment. She only cared about Lord He's health. She also didn't know when the ambulance would arrive.
She apologized sincerely, "sorry, it's my fault."
"Polly Han, grandpa is now unconscious. Will you be fine just by saying sorry to him?" Miss. Jean looked extremely angry on the surface, but she was really happy. "I didn't expect you to be such an irresponsible person! Let me tell you bluntly that everything will be fine if Grandpa is fine today. Otherwise, you will end up in prison! Attempted murder? I wonder how many years you'll be in prison for! "
"Miss. Jean! Shut up! " When Bruce looked at his mother, his voice softened, "Mom, it's not the time to find out who is to blame. Let's talk about it after grandpa's recovery."
It was the first time that she had been reprimanded so harshly by Bruce in front of everyone. She felt embarrassed, so she lost her temper immediately. "Bruce, you'd better protect her! Is she more important than grandpa in your heart? Even if she killed Grandpa, you still want to be with her? "
Bruce made no response. At this moment, Polly saw clearly his gaunt and frail face.
For him, Lord He was very important, even more important than himself.
Jean was telling the truth. She understood his feelings. She could feel that he distanced himself from her since the accident. He had taken a look at her when she was kidnapped. Since then, he had given up on her.
He kept a distance from her, not even gave her a look.
It's no big deal. It's just an agreement and another agreement to maintain their marriage. But why? Even though she thought so, she was still very sad?
The ambulance arrived soon. Bruce, Miss. Jean and Justin He went also. At this moment, she was completely excluded. She looked at the cool and lonely back of the busy crowd in confusion.
