"Really?"
"Yes, as long as you help him, George can chase her successfully, and at that time will he still let her live here?"
Jenny patted Allen's shoulder, "Go sit with the guest in the living room, I'll handle it here."
After sending Allen away, Jenny turned down the fire on the stove and glanced towards the living room from time to time.
The phone next to the counter suddenly rang.
It was Luke calling.
She froze and hesitated for a few seconds and then pressed the answer button.
"Hello?"
"Not home?"
As if he was at home.
Jenny bit her lip, "How do you know I'm not at home?"
"The phone call to home didn't go through."
So that was it.
"I'm at Victoria’s home, she's not feeling well, I'm not going back for the next two days, I need to take care of her."
Perhaps because Luke was wrong first, this time Jenny lied without feeling guilty, very calm and poised.
The other side of the phone seemed to want to say something else, Jenny suddenly felt nervous, "I have to do something else, I’ll hang up first."
After saying this, not waiting for the other side to react, she hurriedly hung up the phone.
Looking at the phone, she felt a little confused and her calm mood seemed to be stirred up again at this moment, she raised her hand and patted her head, turned around and poured the brown sugar and ginger tea in the bowl.
When she took the brown sugar ginger tea to the living room, the two gentlemen were still in a frozen standoff, and Victoria, unattended, was still squatting inside the toilet.
"I don't go out, let me die in the toilet!" The washroom erupted with Victoria's mournful shout.
Jenny rubbed her ears, "Just come out and drink the brown sugar ginger tea, I have a solution."
After persuading for a long time, Victoria was willing to come out, lying on the sofa and not moving, and finally the brown sugar and ginger tea was fed to her by Jenny.
"Feeling better?" Jenny put down the bowl.
Victoria lay on the couch and grunted, feeling on the verge of tears, "I feel like there is a meat grinder in my stomach."
"It really hurts that much?" George sat aside and frowned, somewhat unable to imagine.
"If I castrate you, how do you feel?" Victoria's miserable white face faced George and gave him a fierce glare at the certain place on his body, which scared him a lot.
"Put this on your stomach." Allen came out from the bathroom and stuffed a hot water bag inside Victoria's blanket.
"Hey hey hey, where are you touching?"
"Hot water bag..." Allen looked at George, "Don't misunderstand."
"Don't yell, I'm much better, George can you be quiet?"
The situation was really messy, and Jenny felt she couldn't intervene, so she inquired, "Are you just going to lie down on the sofa, or are you going to go to your bedroom?"
"Lie down here," Victoria said sullenly, "I can't move."
The heating in the living room was not as effective as in the bedroom, and at this moment Jenny felt a little cold after taking off her coat, not to mention a woman with menstrual cramps, even though it was Victoria's request, she was still worried.
