Chapter 222

Theresa’s voice suddenly became listless.

“Don’t even mention it. My mom, in an effort to force me into matchmaking, has stopped eating. In defiance, I stopped eating too. Now, both of us haven’t eaten for two days.”

Susan was taken aback. “You can’t go on like this, right?”

Theresa sounded a bit gloomy. “How was I to know my mom could endure so much! My body is strong, I can hold out. But she’s of an age, why is she so stubborn? Forget it, the more I talk, the sadder I get. I give up, alright? I’ll go check on my mom.”

“Okay, hurry,” Susan urged quickly.

Theresa left, and about ten minutes later, she returned with a howl.

“What happened?” Susan jumped.

Theresa, almost in tears, said, “I went to my mom’s room and saw her curled up in bed, looking very uncomfortable. I felt sorry for her and agreed to the matchmaking.”

Susan nodded, “It’s best to calm the elder first.”

But then Theresa’s voice rose dramatically. “The problem is, after I agreed, ‘my mom excitedly jumped out of bed! And accidentally, she also shook out the bread she had hidden under the blanket!”

Susan was speechless.

Theresa was on the verge of tears.

Theresa seemed genuinely miserable.

Susan, though, couldn’t help but want to laugh.

She tried to hold it back but eventually burst into laughter.

Theresa, defeated, said in a tone of utter despair, “Go ahead and laugh. I’m going to eat a full meal now, and then, I’ll go for the matchmaking tomorrow.”

“Go for it,” Susan said with a smile.

“Walt, Susan,” Theresa suddenly thought of something, her eyes lighting up. “Are you free tomorrow?”
