    Chapter 179


    “Is her mood stable?” Arabe asked softly.


    “She’s steady alright, just missing you a ton. She’s been begging the nurses to lend her their phones so


    she can call you. But they keep telling her youe by often, and as soon as she stays awake a bit


    longer, you two will be able to meet.”


    Grace’s phone was confiscated by Olga, fearing that the olddy might wake up suddenly and contact


    Arabe, possibly leaving her entire fortune to her due to her confusion. That’s why she didn’t allow any


    phones around Grace.


    “I’ll visit her tomorrow.” Arabe’s voice was calm.


    “Great, I have aplex case here; can you help me check it out tomorrow?”


    “Sure.”


    After ending the call, Arabe saw a flood of WhatsApp messages from Olga.


    [You are such a disgrace. The Murphy family has bent over backward to raise you all these years, yet


    you show no gratitude.]


    [Yoli did her best to get you back on track, and you instigate your friends to attack her? Look at what


    she has be now.]


    Il demand youe here immediately and apologize to Yoli sincerely!]


    Perhaps because she didn’t get an immediate response from Arabe, Olga sent several more


    messages, all insulting her.


    The Murphy family has wasted their efforts raising you all these years. If they raised a dog, at least it


    could guard the house. You’re not even as good as a dog!] [If I were you, I would apologize to Yoli


    immediately and do everything possible to get her forgiveness.]


    [I’m telling you toe here right now; did you hear me?]


    Arabe replied to her, [Are you nuts?] Then she blocked her ount and prepared to take a shower


    and go to bed.


    At this moment, Edith’s voice came from outside the door.


    “Ms. Be, are you asleep? Thedy wants you toe downstairs for some mushroom soup.”


    Arabe wasn’t hungry, but she didn’t turn down her mother’s kindness. She packed up her medication


    for the night and went downstairs.


    Serena Collins served a bowl of mushroom soup in front of Louisa, sweetly calling, “Mom, here’s your


    mushroom soup.”


    Then she served another bowl and handed it to Keh Collins, saying, “Dad, this is yours.”


    “You don’t need to do this.” Keh said with a smile that he felt his child was growing more and more


    considerate.


    Louisa also smiled and said, “Serena, you don’t need to bother with these trivialities.”


    Back when they didn’t know she wasn’t their biological child, the Collins family had always taken good


    care of her.


    Even a y thatsted eighteen years would create bonds, let alone their genuine affection for her


    over such a long period.


    Although she wasn’t their biological daughter, seeing her being as filial and obedient as before, even


    serving soup like a small thing in front of them, Louisa felt veryforted.


    Seeing Arabee downstairs, Louisa smiled and asked, “Be, you’re here? Come sit next to


    mom.”


    “Sis, this is your mushroom soup.” Serena served Arabe a bowl personally, and only then did she


    serve herself.


    “Serena is so thoughtful, treating her sister so well!” Louisa looked at Arabe with a loving gaze and


    said, “Hurry and drink it while it’s hot.


    Arabe took a spoonful of soup and brought it to her mouth. She smelled a familiar scent–hemp


    seeds?


    This kind of Chinese herb was often used with other medications to treat constipation.


    But Arabe also smelled another medication, croton tiglium. She smiled slightly. Were they trying to


    give her diarrhea?


    Arabe fooked up and saw Serena and Martha secretly watching her. As she looked at them, they


    quickly diverted their gaze.


    Arabe put the spoon down, and the smile on her face grew.


    “Thanks to Martha’s teachings, Serena has be so considerate. Since Serena personally served


    this soup, Martha should have a taste first.”


    Martha immediately felt something was wrong: “Ms. Be, you’re too kind; I am just a servant; how can


    I eat such precious food?”


    “Of course you can.” Arabe put the mushroom soup in front of her and smiled slightly. “We’ve never


    Belongs to (N)?vel/Drama.Org.


    treated you as a servant in our house, and besides, it’s just a bowl of soup, right, mom, dad?”


    “Yes, Be is so kind; just eat it.” Keh added with a smile.


    But Martha didn’t dare eat the mushroom soup in front of her. She swallowed and smiled awkwardly.


    “Sir, ma’am, you might not know, but my stomach hasn’t been goodtely; let Ms. Be have this bowl


    of mushroom soup first. Thank you for your kind intentions, Ms. Be.“.


    “Mushroom soup is rich in protein, essential amino acids, and trace elements, which are beneficial for


    enhancing intestinal mucosal repair. Martha, your stomach isn’t well; you should drink more mushroom


    soup.”


    Without waiting for Martha to refuse, Arabe smiled and added, “There are also some good


    ingredients added. Martha, you should give it a try.”


    Martha felt the girl in front of her was like a devil; how could she know what was added just by smelling


    it?


    dirty.


    “Martha, do you think the spoon I used earlier is dirty, so you don’t want to eat?” Arabe changed a


    new spoon for her. Seeing her still not moving, her eyes showed a bit of disappointment. “Is it because


    I just got home and no one listens to me anymore?”


    “Martha,” Keh couldn’t bear to see his precious daughter doubting herself, so he quickly said, “If


    Be wants you to eat, just eat it; it’s just a bowl of soup.”


    “Be, don’t think too much; how could everyone not listen to you?” Louisa said it with pity.


    “Maybe it’s because I came home toote; everyone listens to my sister more. Even if I want to give


    someone something good to eat, they won’t ept it.”


    Hearing these words, Keh and Louisa immediately realized something. Yes, these servants had


    been with Serena for a long time; naturally, they would lean


    more towards her!


    Be must feel bad in her heart.


    Thinking about this, Louisa made up her mind. Nope, she had to hire some new help. She couldn’t let


    her precious Be feel wronged.


    “Serena, why don’t you try and get Martha to eat? If Martha really doesn’t have an appetite, you can


    eat for her. She might not listen to me, but she might listen to you, right?”


    At this, Serena’s face turned pale as a‘ ghost, scared that her scheme had been blown.


    “Since Ms. Be is so kind, I might as well eat.” Martha knew she couldn’t avoid eating any longer and


    picked up her spoon with trembling hands.


    Arabe smiled and said, “That’s the spirit. Martha, is it good?”


    Martha felt sick but still took a couple of bites and forced a smile, saying, “It’s good.”


    “Well then, you should eat moreter.”


    “Thank you very much for your kindness, Ms. Be, but one bowl is enough. I really can’t eat


    anymore.”


    “There are a lot of ingredients in this mushroom soup. You work so hard; you should replenish your


    energy.”


    “Thank you for your concern, Ms. Be.” Martha felt conflicted. After finally finishing the mushroom


    soup, she quickly made up an excuse and left.
