At the city’s first hospital, Joanna Ramsey lay on the hospital bed, hooked up to an IV, moaning from the pain. Victor Bennett sat nearby, his face unchanged, listening to her endless moans, and snapped irritably. "You know it hurts, huh? Stuffing yourself like crazy, did you really think you had a stomach of steel?" Joanna looked at him, her mouth quivering, and started sobbing again. Indeed, taking advantage of Victor Bennett comes with consequences... "Oh, my dear lady, why are you crying again? I wasn’t really blaming you, was I?" "My stomach is uncomfortable." "Acute gastroenteritis, of course you’re uncomfortable," Victor Bennett said, finally relenting. "Do you want me to buy you some porridge to warm your stomach?" Joanna looked at him, pitifully nodded. "Then wait for me, I’ll be right back." Victor Bennett said and then left the ward. Joanna sniffed, then picked up the phone next to her and dialed Bella Green’s number. As soon as the call connected, Joanna started crying again. "Bella, this Fiona Grantham is like a lone jinx, she’s going to be the end of me. I’ve seen her twice, and both times it ended badly, either getting beaten up or ending up in the hospital, boo hoo hoo~" The sobbing startled Bella Green. "What happened? Where are you, I’ll come right over." "No, no, Victor Bennett is here, you don’t need to come. Actually, it’s not a big deal, just ate something bad, got gastroenteritis..." "Bella, why aren’t you saying anything?" Joanna asked softly. "I was just thinking about the last time you overstuffed yourself at a buffet and ended up in the hospital..." Joanna: "..." instantly stopped crying. "I just had to eat my fill, you know that hot pot place is really expensive. Someone was treating, if I didn’t eat more, it’d be a waste." The righteous tone made Bella Green’s temple throb. But there was something she hadn’t had the chance to realize until she heard Joanna’s frugal talk. To her knowledge, Joanna’s family situation wasn’t great, and they had met while working odd jobs. If that’s the case, then how could she be set up for a blind date with Victor Bennett? What is the status of the Bennett Family in Brocade City? Not just anyone qualifies for a match. Thinking of this, Bella Green wanted to ask, but before she could speak, Joanna’s mischievous voice came through. "Victor Bennett is back, I won’t talk to you anymore, hanging up!" After saying that, she hung up the call directly. Looking at her phone, Bella Green couldn’t help but laugh bitterly because she’s never met anyone else who ended up in the hospital twice because of eating, other than Joanna. As for Joanna’s family situation, Bella Green didn’t think deeply about it. After all, she has her own mess she hasn’t had the chance to talk to Joanna about. Setting aside her thoughts, Bella Green opened the shopping app and continued to contact the seller she had dealt with before for Mason Bennett’s gift. That darn seller wasn’t reachable for a day, and now finally shows up and tells her the item has been shipped? Was this a tactic to avoid a return by delaying until the item shipped before responding? Under Bella Green’s repeated promise not to ask for a refund even if she returns the item, the seller finally agreed to call the logistics and halt the delivery. Looking at her phone, Bella Green breathed a sigh of relief, then worried again about what gift to get for Mason Bennett. Too expensive, she can’t afford it; too cheap, she feels it’s beneath him. In the end, Bella Green came up with a truly affordable yet meaningful gift. Why not simply DIY a cake for him!!
