Elm opened the refrigerator and saw a plate of leftover fried chicken from the night before. “Do you want what’s left from yesterday? If not, I’m going to throw it out!”

Eileen replied, “It can still be eaten once it’s heated up later.”

“Okay.”

Leftover food? Eric was taken aback.

Eileen lived a life of luxury, never with a sight of leftovers on her dining table.

In the past, she was incredibly picky about food. Even fish had to be meticulously deboned
