Chapter 230

    Chapter <b>230 </b>


    Dn clung to Mnie as if she was holding onto a lifeline. “Sally!”


    When Mnie’s grandfather heard what she said, he threw his cane beside Dn and shouted, “Sally, <b>get </b>her out of here! I don’t want to see her again!”


    The caregivers and the director who had remained nearby rushed over upon hearing the old man’s voice. The director pulled Dn away, saying, “The old man is not in good health. Please leave for now.”


    Only when Dn was led away by the director did Mnie’s grandfather raise his hand and hit his head. Frustrated and angry, he muttered, “What sins have <b>I </bmitted?!”


    Mnie also snapped out of her stupor then. She rubbed the hand that Dn had grabbed and then calmly went to support her grandfather.


    The old man waved his hand. “You should go back first.”


    “I’m worried about your health,” Mnie said.


    “I’m fine, really.” Despite the fatigue evident in her grandfather’s tone, he shook his head, not wanting Mnie to apany him.


    However, when they reached the room door, he stopped and slowly turned back to look at Mnie with a gaze full of sadness. “Mel, this has nothing to do with you. No matter what she says or does, don’t get involved.”


    Mnie felt a stir in her heart. She closed her eyes briefly and finally said, “I’lle to pick you up to visit Grandma tomorrow.”


    After her grandfather went back to his room<b>, </b>Mnie stayed for a while before leaving. It was not until she got home that she took out her phone.


    She quickly nced at her messaging app. Finding no important messages, she then put her phone down to rest and sleep. She was very tired.


    Dealing with the pile of work at thepany was already exhausting, and now Dn hade to cause a disturbance. It would not be an exaggeration to say that she was mentally and physically exhausted.


    Mnie had not been asleep for long when she began to feel a dull ache in her stomach. Her eating habits had been irregrtely, and she did not even have dinner the night before. She fumbled to check the time and saw that it was only four in the morning.


    Mnie got out of bed and went to the living room in search of some medicine for her stomach. After taking a pill, shey back down.


    By the time she left the house, her stomach was still ufortable. She grabbed a cup of hot water and ced it on her stomach to warm herself.


    With no reply from Cameron, Mnie had to change her strategy. She checked the article posted on Blue Inc’s public ount this morning<b>, </b>took a screenshot of a part she did not quite understand, and sent it to Cameron. She was humbly seeking advice.


    “Mnie, hey!” A crisp and lively voice rang out as Vi entered the office holding several cups of coffee. She ced one on Mnie’s desk and said, “Good morning<b>!</b><b>” </b>


    Mnie nced at the coffee, his expression unchanging. “I’m not feeling well. No coffee for me.”


    The bright smile on Vi’s face immediately faded. She muttered a low apology to Mnie, Sorry, Mnie, it’s my fault.”


    “I


    Coincidentally, a colleague who had just arrived overheard Vi apologizing to Mnie again. and could not help whispering, “Why is Mnie scolding Vi again? How many times has it been?”


    Although the voice had been a whisper, the office was quiet in the early morning, so many people heard it.


    Mnie remained expressionless and silent while Vi hurriedly exined, “No, it’s my fault. I shouldn’t have bought coffee for Mnie’s breakfast.”


    Flipping through the documents, Mnie’s actions paused. She looked up at Vi casually. ” Did I ask you to buy breakfast for me?”


    Her tone was calm as she continued, “Also, refrain from doing anything too smart for your own good or it’ll just make you look foolish.”
