Chapter 109 Gastric Disease


Olivia agreed to Natalie's request. The two of them continued to talk for a while more before setting the time and place for their meeting tomorrow. It was only after that they hung up.

Natalie ate another piece of chocolate. The chocolate prepared by the Holdens was even better than the ones she had bought herself.

She took a photo of the packaging, intending to buy some online. But after searching the internet with the photo, she found it wasn't available for sale.

Suddenly, the sound of knocking came from the door.

"Mr. Langley, are you asleep? If not, could I trouble you for a moment?" Sheldon's voice sounded through the intercom.

Natalie put down the chocolate and went to open the door. "I'm not asleep yet. Is there something you need, Sheldon?"

"Mr. Holden has been punished by Mr. Holden Senior and is still kneeling. I was hoping you could bring him some food." Sheldon looked somewhat embarrassed to ask this favor. "Mr. Holden only drank some wine at the banquet and didn't eat much.

"Then, that incident happened, so I'm really worried about Mr. Holden.

"Mr. Langley might not know this, but Mr. Holden has gastric disease. If he goes too long without food, he can also get hypoglycemia.

"But since this is Mr. Holder Senior's punishment for him, we as staff members can't go against his orders despite feeling sorry for Mr. Holden. So, I wanted to ask Mr. Langley for help in delivering food to him.

"Since you're Ms. Sterling's cousin, and Ms. Sterling is Mr. Holden Senior's savior, he probably won't get angry even if he finds out."

"Then, you should have Connie deliver it." Natalie outright rejected Sheldon's request. "Besides, even if you delivered it to him, Mr. Holden Senior won't find out if you and Mr. Holden don't say anything.
