father racked up debts. Each time, he stepped in to help her.
More than once, she had called him late at night, and he had rushed over without hesitation.
Perhaps her kindness was meant as gratitude, not something more.
Nevin let go of his doubts about Rhea once again.
Back in her office, Rhea smashed a mug in anger.
Things had clearly been getting closer between her and Nevin. How did it suddenly turn out like this?
She wondered if Demi had called Nevin while she was away.
Or had someone at the company say something to him
He had clearly allowed her to be close before.
In Nevin’s office, Joe knocked and came in after receiving a message. “Mr. Blackwell, Madam booked a table at Sunrise Avenue Cajun boil place for tonight.”
After the family learned that Demi liked spicy food, the cook made sure to prepare a sour and spicy dish at every meal.
That evening, Nevin arrived early at the Cajun boil restaurant, but Demi never showed up.
After asking around, he learned that Demi had gone straight back to Snow Mansion and was not working
late.
Nevin did not see Demi, but he knew the Snows would take good care of her, so he did not chase after her.
Meanwhile, in Snow Mansion.
“Ugh.
“Urgh.”
“Why are you vomiting so badly? Is it because you cannot handle spicy food?”
In the bathroom, Carol gently patted Demi’s back, pacing anxiously.
Demi threw up everything she had eaten.
At dinner, Carol had been relieved to see Demi finally eating with appetite.
The housekeeper had made a homemade spicy soup, with all the ingredients she personally picked out.
Carol had called Demi in the afternoon to ask her to come home for dinner. When she heard Demi was craving something warm and flavorful, she worried that food outside might not be fresh enough.

The housekeeper happened to know how to make a hearty, tangy stew with a mild kick, so Carol asked Demi to come home to eat.
She did not expect this.
“Urgh.”
Only after her stomach was completely empty could Demi stand up.
After rinsing her mouth, she waved her hand. “Mom, I’m fine. I probably just ate too much at once.”
These past days, she had barely eaten anything. Yet the doctor kept telling her to eat more.
Tonight’s spicy soup was sour and spicy, very appetizing The ingredients were fresh, and the seafood had no fishy smell at all. She ended up eating more than usual.
“How about I take you to the hospital and ask if there is any anti-nausea medicine pregnant women can take?” Carol said with concern. “This cannot keep going.
“Mom, I go to the hospital every few days. My body is fine.”
Demi’s eyes flickered slightly. She did not want her mother to worry too much.
“Really?”
“Yes.” Demi gestured with her arm. “Morning sickness is normal. I will just eat more afterward.”
