Chapter 1112:

Alec was left fuming, feeling utterly powerless. Was he really being denied even a single bite? This bodyguard was too meddlesome.

Brenna simply shrugged. “You can have some of the curry rice when it arrives.” Soon, another bodyguard arrived carrying several servings of curry. The two bodyguards dug in with enthusiasm, each polishing off two bowls, while Alec quietly finished his one portion.

Between bites, Alec kept stealing glances at Joann and Brenna’s table, silently hoping his mother might save him some food from her meal.

But Joann had been running on an empty stomach since last night, and with Brenna’s help, she finished all the food.

Alec felt deeply disappointed and especially resented that bodyguard. After everyone had eaten, Brenna patiently explained the medication routine to her grandmother and Alec.
