An Impossible Marriage Novel

Chapter 83 

Elizabeth didn‘t think much about it and helped her with the food. “You‘re too weak. Here, have more nourishing food. I told the chef to prepare some nourishing soup. Have more of this.” 

Margaret lost her appetite at the sight of the soup. Right then, her phone rang. She flashed Elizabeth a smile and went aside to answer the call. 

After Elizabeth went back to the kitchen to resume work, Margaret heaved a sigh of relief. The soup had a fishy smell, so she didn‘t like it at all. As she didn‘t want to upset Elizabeth, the only way out was to avoid drinking the soup. 

On the other end of the line, Jodie‘s dejected voice rang out. “Meg, can you keep me company? I‘m in a bad mood now. I feel horrible.” 

Usually, Jodie would only mention the good things and hide the bad news from her. She must be in trouble to call me now to vent her frustrations. Plagued with worry, Margaret asked, “What happened, Jo?” 

After a brief silence, Jodie didn‘t reveal the reason. “I don‘t feel like saying it. Can you not ask questions? If you can‘t make it, never mind.” 

Margaret blurted out, “Where are you? I‘ll come meet you now.”
