Mary was looking a lot better. When she noticed it was Rainie, she managed a small smile. “Rainie, what brings you here?”

Rainie, jumpy as ever, grabbed the thermos Yolanda handed her and set it down on the bedside table in a hurry

Ms. Hall, I heard you were hospitalized, so I came to see you. I made this soup–it should be good for your health. I’ll head out now,” Rainie said, sounding flustered.

She left so fast that Mary didn’t even have time to stop her.

Yolanda had just gotten there herself. Charles’s men had hauled in Ken and Wayne about an hour ago, and now they were waiting for her to head over.

But she wasn’t in any rush. She figured she’d let them sweat it out a bit.

She popped open the thermos and saw that rich, milky bone broth inside, the aroma instantly making her hungry. She couldn’t help but comment, “Looks like this took hours to simmer–she really poured her heart into it.”

Mary gave a faint smile. Her head injury wasn’t serious, but she hadn’t slept well at all lately, and the headache just wouldn’t quit.

‘Rainie’s always been a timid one, Mary thought, ‘but she’s got real potential. And she’s grateful for what others do for her.‘

Just then, her phone buzzed with a live stream notification.

She was following Sophie’s streams, and now, seeing Sophie had dragged those three into a group livestream, Mary fumed so hard her chest heaved with anger.

The five of them used to be thick as thieves, but now with Rainie left out, the others were bound to freeze her out sooner or later.

People are messy creatures, and the smaller the clique, the less they can stand anyone who dares to do things differently.

Mary’s face flushed with anger, but Yolanda just reached over and switched off her phone.

“Stop watching that. Don’t waste Rainie’s kindness–just have some soup,” Yolanda said.

Mary was overwhelmed, the heat from the soup making her eyes water. “I went out of my way for Sophie, but she wasn’t worth it. You think you know someone, but you really don’t.”

Yolanda didn’t say anything, just grabbed her bag and got to her feet. “The Starlight stuff should be wrapped up in about three days, so I probably won’t get a chance to see you for now. Take care, okay? If things get rough, just hire a caregiver or something.”
