"Your dissection skills are so amazing, young lady. After you retire, maybe you can become a butcher at a supermarket."
"By then, I doubt you'll be able to see anymore."
Kyson was rendered speechless.
Is being sharp-tongued a fine tradition in the Edwards family?
Layne was like this when he was young, and he raised a granddaughter with the same attitude.
Annoying!
As soon as Cheyenne left the morgue, her first order of business was to wash her hands and change clothes.
When she returned to her office, she noticed that there was a plate of Japanese food on her desk.
It was exactly the sashimi and salmon she had wanted to eat.
Who ordered this takeout for her?
"How is it? I'm good to you, right? How about becoming my god granddaughter? I will order takeout for you every day."
Kyson appeared out of nowhere, standing with hands on his hips, his squinty eyes barely visible.
Cheyenne couldn't help but pout her glossy lips and resisted the temptation of the delicious food.
She firmly rejected his food seduction.
"No."
"Ah! Why not? Have I not been good to you?"
Kyson was truly frustrated. He genuinely wanted to win over Cheyenne as a talent for his team.
"I have a grandfather, and I have a master and senior fellow who is your younger brother. I don't need you."
"Pfft."
Direct and hurtful, Kyson wondered why young people nowadays were so independent and had such strong personalities.
But on second thought, Cheyenne was right!
Whether or not he recognized her as a god granddaughter didn't matter. After all, she was his younger brother's junior, so she naturally would be from Almond Hall.
Just the thought of it made Kyson feel happy.
"Alright, alright, I was just teasing you. You've been busy all morning, so eat up."
Only then did Cheyenne start to eat. She was a principled foodie.
Just as she picked up a piece of raw fish with her fork and put it in her mouth, her stomach churned uncomfortably, making her feel nauseous as if she was on a boat.
"Mmm..."
She suddenly covered her mouth with her hand and rushed towards the bathroom.
The feeling of seasickness was getting stronger and stronger.
Frantically, Cheyenne turned on the tap, and the rushing water masked the sound she made.
"Ugh... cough, cough..."
Even though her stomach felt uncomfortable and she wanted to vomit, nothing came out.
It might have had something to do with her empty stomach.
Rinsing her mouth, Cheyenne turned the tap off and looked at her reflection in the mirror.
Her face was flushed.
She splashed some cold water on her forehead, finally feeling a bit better.
After tidying up her appearance, she returned to her office in high heels.
On the desk, Kyson had already eaten more than half of the salmon sashimi. Seeing Cheyenne back, he restrained himself a little.
Concern filled his eyes as he said, "Are you okay? Getting stomach problems at such a young age? Young people these days, staying up late and not getting up early. Skipping breakfast is harmful to the health."
