"No, it's fine. I was just confused with the amount of food," she said, only to pause. She just noticed that he was spreading butter on his bread and realized he was very graceful while he ate.

Daniel caught her staring at his hands and wondered what she was thinking about when she should be eating.

"Do you expect me to feed you?" he asked and realizing she had been caught spacing out, her ears turned red and she shook her head hurriedly.

"No, I was not thinking that," she denied hurriedly and immediately picked some egg rolls to place on her plate. The sight of her shaking her head looked like a bunny caught doing something wrong. It was a sight he found both cute and amusing. "Sometimes I wonder what goes on in that pretty little head of yours," he commented.

She had only started eating when her phone rang. She stopped and picked it the moment she saw the caller Id.

You even tried to sell me a few years ago and was given a restraining order. You still dare to say you are my mother? I can't afford a mother like you. Please leave." Stella said and others in the ward quieted down to listen. Her words were so shocking that they stopped to listen. "What nonsense are you sprouting? If I really tried to sell you, would I still be standing here and not in prison? I told you it was a misunderstanding," Old Madam Jones defended. She was uncomfortable with the eyes that had descended on her and immediately clarified. "Ah, that is true, there is no evidence so the police could only issue a restraining order against you.
