Unexpected Blessing After Divorce

Chapter 34 Just Throw It Away

Seeing that Yuliana didn’t eat much, Xandria remembered that her friend didn’t have a good appetite during lunch as well. So, she put a tender piece of beef brisket into Yuliana’s bowl and said, “It tastes good – pretty rich and tender.”

As soon as Yuliana saw the beef being plopped down into her bowl, she felt her stomach tighten, and an unpleasant look crept onto her face. She forced her lips close, barely suppressing the wave of nausea threatening to overwhelm her. Immediately, she got up and announced, “I need to use the restroom. You guys can eat first.”

With that, she exited the private room in a hurry.

Xandria was taken aback and worried by her friend’s sudden departure. She was about to leave her seat and chase after Yuliana when Raymond suddenly asked, “Ms, Yeager, what’s wrong with Ms. Livingstone?” Distracted by Raymond, the thought of chasing after Yuliana vanished from Xandria’s mind. She gave Raymond a dark look, feeling many vicious words bubbling their way up her throat again.

Yet, she did feel that something was off when she met Yuliana just now.

Yuliana seemed to have lost a lot of weight, and her face was slightly pale. Usually, Yuliana would put on some makeup when they met. Yet, today was an exception. Today, she wore no makeup at all, and the circles around her eyes seemed darker than usual.

She knew that her friend was different from her. Yuliana was not a night owl; she maintained a regular sleep schedule and had healthy skin as a result. And Xandria had always envied that flawlessly smooth and white skin of Yuliana’s.

The more Xandria thought about it, the more she felt that something was off. Still concerned, she was about to go to the restroom and take a look. But suddenly, Christopher got up swiftly and exited the private room before she did.

Xandria hesitated and thought for a bit. Ultimately, she decided against going out to avoid running into Christopher. It had been a while since Yuliana went out, so she should be back soon anyway.

As Yuliana didn’t eat much, nothing would come out, even though she kept retching and gagging. Yet, her nausea wouldn’t subside. Wave after wave it came, to the point that she wouldn’t be too surprised if her guts found their way out of her throat.

“Are you okay?”

There was a knock on the cubicle door, and a woman’s voice sounded outside.

Yuliana couldn’t respond immediately. But after the wave of nausea passed, she managed to squeeze out a reply. “I’m fine.”

The sound of footsteps outside faded away, and Yuliana thought that the woman had left. She took some more time to steady herself, remembering to flush the toilet before she exited the cubicle. Then, she went to a sink, rinsed her mouth, washed her face, and tidied up her hair.
