Meanwhile, in Aurous Hill Detention Center. 6
Elaine could only watch the inmates finish their lunch, and Jennifer finished both lunch sets, she felt a s if someone stabbed her in the heart, the sight was so painful for her to bear. 6
She had not taken a bite of food for more than 24 hours, was beaten violently, and was forced to sleep all night in the freezing and humid toilet. She was dizzy with hunger and on the verge of collapsing.
Yet, she didn't dare to express any dissatisfaction because it would trigger Jennifer to beat her again.
Because of her small appetite, Lady Wilson was full with just half of the rice portion in the lunch box.
She paced leisurely to Elaine with the leftover lunch box in her hand, waved it in front of her, and asked with a grin, "Hey, you haven't eaten anything for a night and a day, are you hungry? It must be tough, right? Would you like to have two bites?" i
Elaine glanced at the old lady like she was a light of hope and asked cautiously, "Really? Mom, do you really let me eat it?" 2
Lady Wilson nodded nobly. "Yes, it breaks my heart for seeing you starving for so long. Here, take it, as long as you don't think my food is dirty."
The lunch provided by the detention center was not appetizing, just rice and stew as the side dish without any meat, but Elaine drooled when she smelled the scent of the food.
