Mrs. Yorks looked at Sandra with an obscure look in her eyes. Eventually, the corners of her lips quirked with a touch of sarcasm as she teased. "We have plenty of dry food and water in this safe passage. Do you really think the war will end so soon?"
Mrs. Yorks spilled Sandra’s chicken soup for the soul straight away. The atmosphere in the passage grew tense all of a sudden.
Sandra grinned. "Big Sis, you probably don't know this but Master Ares is the one who prepared all this food. He isn't a member of the Yorks’ stronghold, so it comes as no surprise to see him underestimating the ability of Doomsday's army."
Mrs. Sandra's voice was soft, delicate, and especially gentle when she called Mrs. Yorks ‘Big Sis'. Coupled with her breezy smile, she seemed very generous and broad-minded.
This made Mrs. Yorks seem narrow-minded and petty in comparison.
Angeline finally understood why Mrs. Yorks was kicked out of Spencer's harem.
Mrs. Sandra was a conniving witch who came straight out of a storybook.
How could a man resist such a beautiful and generous woman?
Sis Shirley was extremely unhappy with Mrs. Sandra belittling her brother-in-law, Jay. She was subconsciously chivalrous about helping the weak, hence her words carried a deeper meaning when she said, "Now that explains it. I was quite puzzled at first because these are all Angeline's favorite foods. It turns out that Jay is the one who prepared them, eh?"
Josephine echoed, "My brother is worried about Angeline not eating well and not wearing enough to stay warm. It's a shame that this is Yorks Stronghold. I f we're in Imperial Capital right now, my brother would probably shift everything edible in the shopping mall into the safe passage.”
Angeline,"..."
Angeline was terribly embarrassed.
