Chapter 247

“Thomas, even you’re picking on me,” Monica said, a hint of grievance in her eyes.

Thomas pressed his lips tightly together, slowly replying, “Monica, no one is forcing you. It was your own claim that you wanted to come and apologize.

“…” Monica was at a loss for words.

She couldn’t very well admit that she never intended to apologize, that her actual plan was to catch someone in the act, could she?

With no other choice, Monica clenched her teeth and raised her voice. “I’m sorry, I’m sorry, I’m sorry. There, are you

satisfied now?”

“Who said that?” Theresa said, “Didn’t you bring the dishes? I think Susan likes them. How about you feed her

yourself.”

Monica was speechless.

She whirled to look at Theresa. “I am the esteemed daughter of the Lynn family!”

“Unwilling, are you? Oh, that really makes us question your sincerity,” Theresa said coolly.

“You…” Monica was shaking with anger.

Susan, at first, didn’t feel like eating.

But seeing Monica in such a state piqued her interest.

“It’s been ages since anyone’s fed me. I think this idea isn’t half bad,” Susan said, a smile playing on her lips.

Monica turned to Ben for support. “Ben…”

Ben didn’t even glance her way, his gaze filled with affection for Susan. “As long as you’re happy.”

“Now, we’re just waiting on Ms. Lynn.” Theresa thrust the fork into Monica’s hand.

Someone quick–witted had already set the table with dishes.

Then, everyone’s eyes were fixed on Monica.

This level of humiliation… it was unbearable!

Monica felt an urge to throw the fork right there and then.

But glancing

at Ben’s expressionless face, she didn’t dare to.

Gritting her teeth and with a face full of misery, Monica moved forward.

She occasionally cast pitiable glances at the others, hoping someone would speak up for her.

But as she moved, a minute or two passing, not a single voice rose to her aid.

Seeing her dawdle, people began to urge her to pick up the pace.

Monica had no choice but to grit her teeth, picked up a piece of vegetable with her fork, and brought it to Susan’s mouth.

Susan wasn’t really interested in eating.

But she was quite interested in watching Monica’s expressions.

So, Susan, ignoring Monica’s sour face, eagerly took a bite.

Then, she pointed to another dish and said, ‘T’d like a taste of the roast ribs too.”

“You, Susan…” Monica got irritated.
