Rosalie drank two bowls and could not finish the rest of it.
However, there was still a little left, so she finally drank it all.
After she finished tidying up the study room, Melody was delighted to find that Rosalie had finished the stew.
"Auntie Melody, the stew is really delicious."
Rosalie praised her again leaving Melody feeling embarrassed.
Suddenly, Rosalie’s lower abdomen began to cramp and hurt once more. So, she planned to go upstairs and lie down.
"There are still some ingredients in the kitchen. If you like it, I'll make some more later. You can drink it either at noon or night."
Rosalie could not refuse Melody’s kind gesture, so she had an idea and quickly changed her target.
"Auntie Melody, this is such a good stew. Why don't you give some to Byron too? He's been tired and hasn’t been eating well lately."
‘True enough,’ Melody thought.
Rosalie took advantage of the time and went back to her room to rest, while Melody was tinkering in the kitchen.
More than an hour later, Rosalie was almost asleep. Melody came upstairs suddenly and knocked on the door. "Rosalie, Rosalie..."
She called out in a whisper, afraid of startling Rosalie.
"Auntie Melody, what's wrong?"
"Oh, my car broke down suddenly. I don't know what happened. I have called the auto-mechanic workshop to check it out. However, my stew is ready, and I want to send it to Byron while it's hot. novelebook.comThose cars in the garage bought by Byron are either hard to sit in, or they are too big for me to maneuver. So, can I borrow your car?”
‘The car keys are placed in the hall. There’s no need for her to request personally for such a small matter,’ Rosalie thought.
