Chapter 1538
Edwin thought that Tail was easy to coax with candies, toys, or empty promises. After all, she was just three and a half years old.
To his surprise, she was much more stubborn than he expected.
In the quiet ward, Joanne told the story of The Little Prince, and Tail asked questions from time to time. Edwin listened for a while and thought about it. Then he left on the pretext of someone calling him.
As soon as Edwin left, the nurse reminded Joanne and Tail," Mr. Atherton went to the company to deal with business and is not available to eat breakfast. Would you like to eat it?"
Tail held Joanne's hand. ’’Need we listen to that bad guy if we eat his food?"
Tail knew that they would owe Edwin if they ate the breakfast.
The nurse fell into a trance. Then she said with a smile, "Of course not. Please come here and eat breakfast. There is so much delicious and nutritious food. You're in recuperation. It's suitable for you and good for your health."
Joanne knew that Edwin prepared the breakfast with an ulterior motive, but Joanne didn't have the heart to let Tail
down.
Besides, Edwin should pay for Tail's care.
It was just a meal. Of course, Tail could eat it.
Joanne pulled Tail to the dining table.
But Tail was reluctant to eat it.
"No, Mama. We can't eat it. After we eat it, that bad guy will have a reason to bully you! If you're hungry, ask Uncle Jack to buy food for you. It will be more delicious."
Joanne was stuck for words. Then she said, "That bad guy has left. It's his leftover. We eat it to help him reduce waste, so we won't owe him."
