“Linda, hurry up! Get the chef to make Yosef some soup-it’ll warm his stomach,” Maelis called out, her voice urgent.

“Mr. Yosef Shaw, Mrs. Shaw, I’m afraid there’s no soup left,” Linda said hesitantly, stepping forward with an apologetic

look.

“What do you mean there’s no soup? Don’t you know Yosef needs it regularly for his health?” Maelis’s tone sharpened, her rare display of anger revealing her mounting frustration. It felt as though everything was conspiring against her.

“Mrs. Shaw, the ingredients for the soup were always provided by Ms. Zinnia Shaw. She knew Mr. Yosef Shaw had stomach. issues, so she would prepare the ingredients for us to make the soup,” Linda explained, her head slightly bowed.

It wasn’t as if Yosef had always had soup to drink; it only became a regular thing after Zinnia started providing the ingredients. Now that she’s been driven away, there’s no one to prepare them anymore.

They didn’t appreciate Zinnia when she was here, but now that she’d gone, everyone seemed to want something from her.

“Zinnia provided it?” The group was completely taken aback by this revelation.

“My soup was prepared by Zinnia?” Yosef’s voice carried a note of disbelief, his expression stunned. He hadn’t expected the soup he relied on to be her doing.

His stomach had always been sensitive, making it hard for him to eat certain foods. With frequent social engagements and occasional drinking, his stomach often felt uncomfortable, leaving him restless at night.

But at some point, the house started serving soup that soothed his stomach and left him feeling refreshed. Yosef had grown quite fond of it.

Every time he returned home, Linda would bring him a bowl of soup. After drinking it, he could finally get a good night’s

sleep.

The next day, he’d feel energized for work, and the soup even seemed to have some nourishing effects. He never imagined.
