Ysabelle froze.

After a while, she finally came back to her senses and yelled into the phone, “Are you guys blind? How is it that you only find out about it now?”

Fuming with rage, Ysabelle then ended the call.

After racking her brain for some time, Ysabelle called Miss Linda again and said to her, “See you at our old place. I’ll teach you how to get rid of both of them…”

In the past five months, Meredith was forced to work, forced to eat cold bread and cold pasta, and forced to give blood to Yena.

If it was not for Qira, her child would have died of hunger.

“You guessed it wrong, it’s a chicken drumstick!” Qira took out a drumstick behind her back and beamed. “Edith, I’ve saved this for you specially. Here, eat this while it’s still hot.”

In the past, Meredith would have taken the food as she knew she had to eat well for the baby in her tummy.
