Chapter 494
Jenna quickly said thanks to the doctor and sent him out.
Only then did she get back into the tent.
She was about to sit down when the tent was suddenly opened and Vita came in wearing a raincoat.
There was a bowl in her arms, and she took it out, in which there was steaming hot porridge.
"Jenna, this is the porridge I just made. It's late at night and I want to feed it to Master Brayden. Is that okay?"
Vita looked at Jenna with pity, and her pretty face looked quite endearing.
It was just a pity that ...
Jenna just gave Vita a faint look and said politely, "Brayden just fell asleep. He has a fever. He may not have time to drink the porridge you cooked, so it's better for you to drink it yourself."
Under such difficult circumstances in the disaster area, it was good that everyone could have enough to eat.
But Vita made a bowl of porridge in the middle of the night, which was a waste of resources in Jenna's eyes.
What shameful behavior.
Vita's eyes reddened a bit and she gave her a miserable look, "Okay then."
Her tone was full of loss, and then she sullenly lowered her head and prepared to walk back.
"Ahem... ahem..."
Suddenly, a violent coughing sound came from behind.
Vita turned around sharply and saw Brayden slowly opening his eyes and coughing on his back.
Jenna walked over quickly, helped him to sit up and patted his back.
"Brayden, how are you? Is there anything wrong with you?"
"My head hurts a little." Brayden raised his hand and rubbed his brow, his voice husky and magnetic. Accompanied by the sound of rain in the dark night outside the tent, it was somewhat titillating.
Vita's heart skipped a beat. She couldn't help thinking of Brayden's voice that gave her a sense of security when he was trying to protect her.
Vita couldn't help but walk up to Brayden and Jenna, "Mr. Wright, this is the porridge I made for you, thank you for saving me. You ... quickly drink it while it's hot."
Brayden raised his eyes to look at the young girl in front of him. The girl was about 17 or 18 years old, but he didn't seem to be impressed.
"I ... I saved you? Sorry, I don't remember."
Brayden looked indifferent and said, "Thank you for your kindness. You can drink the porridge yourself."
Jenna heard it. She couldn't help but curl her lips. There was a blush on her face. Thinking of the man's kiss with her in his sleep, she felt her face got even redder.
Especially when Brayden's manly scent reached her nose at this time, she couldn't help but blush.
The way she looked at Vita became much gentler. She smiled and said, "Brayden needs to rest. You'd better go out first."
Vita gritted her teeth and turned away, somewhat aggrieved and lost.
'It must be Jenna who made Mr. Wright afraid to accept the porridge I made!' thought Vita.
Jenna didn't know what Vita was thinking. She politely escorted her to the entrance of the tent, "It's late, you should get some rest."
"You too." Vita held back her disgust with Jenna, said the last words and left with the porridge.
'It must be that Jenna was unwilling to let me spend more time with Brayden, so she talked bad about me in front of Mr. Wright!'
The more Vita thought about it, the more aggrieved she was. Suppressing her bitterness, she went back to the tent she was in.
At her tent lying so many people, a variety of smells intermingled, which annoyed her.
Reluctant to throw the bowl of porridge, she drank it herself.
Just after drinking, she heard the voices of several village women.
"I heard that our town suffered the most this time, and Mayor Cody is going to pick a few good kids to bring back to Larro to train."
"It's good to go to the city. The kids can go to a good school and live in a good house. I heard that the food in the city school is better than that of the richest family in our town."
"I'll be really lucky if my boy gets chosen."
Vita was lying on her bunk, listening to the words of these village women, and could not help but think, 'If only I could get chosen and go to Wright Residence. By then, Jenna or any other woman would not perform as well as she did.'
Vita heard that Jenna was not really the young lady of the Wright family, but just an adopted daughter of the Wright family. So, she wasn't inferior to Jenna.
Thinking of Jenna's smooth skin, slender figure, and soft hands, Vita tossed with jealously. She was the best looking in the village, so she believed that she was better than Jenna.
When she really got to town, she could dress up and wear some nice clothes. By then, she would be a gorgeous lady.
She took one look at her hands, which were rough and yellowish because of helping her parents with their farm work. She became a little angry.
How could Jenna be so lucky to be adopted by the Wright family?
The more Vita thought about it, the more jealous and furious she became.
She fell asleep without realizing it.
It was dawn.
The rain that had been falling for several days and nights finally showed signs of stopping. The rain was weakening, and the sound of rain has become pattering up.
When Sylvia returned with Franklin, there were some warriors who got up earlier to train themselves.
Passing by the stove, Franklin saw a few familiar faces.
Fixing his eyes on it, he frowned.
"It seems to be some chefs from the Royal Galaxy Hotel?"
A chef was cooking while greeting them in a loud voice.
"Mr. Maskelyne, Miss Andrews, good morning!"
Sylvia smiled, "Fitch, take it easy and don't put too much salt on it."
"Don't worry, Miss Andrews! I'm a good cook!" The chef laughed out loud.
The remaining few cooks also laughed.
Franklin walked further and found more familiar faces. Several attendants from Royal Galaxy Hotel were conducting a geological survey with the experts brought in.
"I thought they were just attendants. How come ..."
How come they know how to use geological survey instruments?
"Oh, they majored in geology in college. When they are free, they will use instruments. When they are needed, they will work. Now they are working." Sylvia was not surprised.
