That night, Tina did not return to the ward. She followed the nurse to every other ward for an entire night to learn how to take care of patients. When Christopher woke up the next day, he saw a glass of warm water on his bedside table. "I'll help you wash up first, then you can drink this glass of warm water." Christopher looked at Tina curiously, just to see her walking away swiftly, then only did he mumble a response. Once that was done, she went to get him breakfast. "I bought these from the Vigilant Vegan Restaurant; here's your favourite red bean porridge, and there's tofu jelly. Have a taste." Christopher frowned and asked, "Vigilant Vegan Restaurant is so far from here. When did you go there?" "It didn't take too long, I just took a cab!" He didn't believe her. Looking up, he saw the dark circles around her eyes, and his brows instantly furrowed. "Did you not rest last night? And where did you learn all these things from?"
Although Christopher had already recovered, it was still not very convenient for him to move around. Tina had prepared a wheelchair for him, so when Eudora heard Tina's request for her to take care of Christopher, she had assumed that it was to watch over him so that nothing would happen. "Alright!" She nodded. The light in Tina's eyes dimmed, but soon after, her lips curled into a smile. "Great! Thank you, Eudora." After Tina left, Christopher recalled someone talking about the Valiant East Catering in the hospital. So, he curiously asked Eudora, "I heard some people saying that the Valiant East Catering is facing some problems, that the food's taste has changed and become unappetizing. Do you want to go and take a look at what's happened?" She remained calm as she answered, "Cooking is just like being a person; it has to stay true to its original essence. If the person cooking it has changed, can they still produce the same dish?" Chris
They were at Valiant East Catering. Sebastian stood there, looking at Uriah in anger. "Where's the secret ingredient?" Uriah shook his head as he replied, "We've finished using it!" "If it's finished, then formulate another one! How would you have a secret ingredient if you don't formulate it?" "There's no formula for us to follow. The recipe used to be delivered by President Granger's people in the past once a month! We've never had it in our possession." "Is that so?" Sebastian was dubious. Nick was curious, "That's not true, isn't it? Haven't I heard that Old Master Granger trusted you a lot? Wouldn't he have directly given you the formula?" Upon hearing this, Uriah, who was calm and composed, suddenly burst out laughing. "Nick, you must be joking. I am but an employee under the Granger family. No matter how trustworthy I may be, that recipe is still a secret, special recipe belonging to the Granger family. How could they give i
Tina nodded, then forced a bitter smile. "Eudora, did you work with him to deceive me?" Eudora shook her head, "Tina, don't get me wrong. Back then, when I had first seen the report, I was worried that you couldn't accept it so I had a discussion with him. I didn't expect him to choose to bear the weight of this issue for you. I..." "It's fine!" Tina shook her head. "Eudora, I won't blame you! It's my own misfortune, and no one is to blame for this." Eudora could sense that she was completely dejected, and had no will to live anymore. "Tina, don't be like this. You've seen that Christopher doesn't care about all those things at all. All you have to do is live your life with him, and nothing else matters!" "Eudora, you don't understand." Tina smiled wryly, "It's exactly because he's too nice to me. That's why I feel even worse. He's such a proud person, but he had to be belittled by Anthony, his own eldest brother. He never had to suffer all tha
Eudora picked up the envelope. It had indeed been left behind by Tina. "I'm leaving! Eudora, I'm sorry! You don't need to search for me, because I won't let any of you find me. I entrust Christopher into your hands now, I wish the both of you happiness!" Eudora's hands were trembling, "Tina, this idiot!" Christopher was confused, "What's the matter? What happened to Tina?" "She knows about her not being able to have children!" "What?" Christopher was stunned. "Did she find out back in the hospital? No wonder she's been acting so weird recently! Where did she go? I'll go and find her!" Eudora shook her head as she replied, "I don't know. She didn't say anything." Christopher snatched the letter from Eudora's hand. He read it, and his expression instantly froze. "Tina! Am I this kind of person in your heart?" Eudora frowned as she said, "There's no time to think about this. I'll ask Charlie to dispatch people to help search for her. M
Charlie was stunned, "There's someone here?" "In the corner just now, somebody struck the blade out of his hands!" It was a very strange feeling, and Eudora couldn't explain the situation in that instant. Upon hearing this, Charlie immediately ran over to check. "No, that's a dead end. I've already checked and no one's there. Did you see wrongly?" Eudora shook her head, "Could I have seen wrongly? How did the blade drop out from his hand though?" "Maybe he didn't hold onto it firmly! After all, we did bash them up pretty hard." That was probably the case! Eudora was just thinking that when Charlie continued, "I've enquired just now, and you guessed right. The hotel receptionist told me that Miss Tina really is staying here." Eudora immediately chased away all the weird thoughts in her head. "Tina really is here! This stupid girl, just watch me teach her a lesson!" When Eudora left, Charlie took a look at the wrist of the man w
Eudora had not quite understood Tina's intentions before. However, listening to her recount her experience at the orphanage, she suddenly came to realize why Tina had made those choices. Tina was insecure. She had been abandoned ever since she was young, and had been sent to the orphanage. Orphans never got to experience their parents' love and would think of themselves as redundant. She was afraid of being abandoned, hence when she realized that she could not provide anything at all for her loved one, she chose to leave. Eudora sighed quietly as she exchanged a look with Charlie. They left the scene hastily and walked outside. At that moment, maybe if they could open up and be vulnerable with each other, then perhaps they could see each other clearly for who they were, and have a happy ending. ...... Only Christopher and Tina were left in the room. He shook his head. He shook his head, "I know what you're trying to say! However, ho
The shareholders were all stunned by Sebastian's yelling. They did not want to risk provoking Sebastian as well, unless it was absolutely necessary. Besides, they had already discussed it beforehand. As long as the Valiant East Group recovered, their shares would rise too! Nick, who was the head of this group of shareholders, spoke out to defuse the situation, "Let's not get too hasty, everyone. It's easy for internal conflicts to happen if we start panicking. Our main focus was originally to build up this company; if we were to start arguing with each other, wouldn't things get ugly? That wouldn't be good!" After Nick finished speaking, the rest of them started echoing in agreement too. "Yes, yes! We had gotten too anxious! The company is indeed currently not looking too well now, but it's not as if it has hit rock bottom. It's just a transitional period between different generations of employees now, so some difficulties are inevitable. It's fine!" "That
