In Kara's ward.
After having some porridge, Kara looked much better. There came a sudden knock on the door. She thought it was the nurse and didn't care.
But when she heard the familiar voice, she instinctively frowned.
"Kara, as soon as I heard that you are in the hospital, I came to see you. How are you feeling now? Are you feeling better?"
Kara looked coldly at Sophia's hypocritical face and sneered.
Obviously, Sophia came to see if she was dead and planned to make use of this opportunity to take her shares away.
"I'm fine. I won't die!"
As Kara spoke with heavy irony, Sophia frowned and found it strange.
In her mind, this invalid was naïve and stupid. She used to believe whatever she said. And now she's learned to be sarcastic?
"Kara, you are ill. I know you must have no appetite. So, I bring the soup to you right after finishing cooking in the morning. Eat it while it's warm."
Kara glanced at the insulated lunch box in her hand and said indifferently, "I don't need it."
Ignoring her refusal, Sophia made a small bowl of soup to her.
"Kara, it's nutritious and tastes good. Come on and have a try."
With its familiar scent, Kara could tell it was the cook in her family who made it. She looked at the thick soup and sneered. Sophia just blatantly lied about it. How ridiculous!
However, what Sophia had said occurred to Kara. Since Sophia wanted to kill her, the soup probably was poisonous.
"I'm not disabled. I can eat it by myself."
When she reached out to take the bowl, Sophia was happy. Without thinking further, she let go of it.
At this point, Will and James arrived.
Standing outside the ward, they could hear the talk between Kara and Sophia. James looked sullen.
When he was about to push open the door and enter, Will stopped him.
"Don't you want to see what your little girl is going to do?"
James paused and stared at Kara. She was frowning, looking innocent. He wondered how she would deal with it.
In the ward, Kara did not suspect Sophia at first. But when she found that Sophia had been staring at the bowl in her hand, she was puzzled.
Why did Sophia want her to eat the soup?
