Chapter 42

But when Ruoxi sees Nick, it's like seeing herself, the wound of being kicked out, the pain of being alone, and the desire to live strong.

When they came back, it was just in time for lunch.

"Old lady, the dark chocolate is no longer available, do you still want to buy it?"

"no need."

The originally normal conversation was heard by Li Ke who just passed by, and he suddenly felt strange.

"Mom, do you eat chocolate?"

"Yeah, what's so strange about this?" Facing her son's question, the old lady was very surprised.

"It's okay, I just don't know, I'll buy some for you next time." Li Ke changed the subject, "Mom, what kind of chocolate do you like, dark, white, or nuts?"

"Aren't you going to sit down and eat?"

"No, we ate outside."

Li Ke, who was thinking while going up the stairs, reached the third floor without knowing it, and realized that the decoration was wrong.

He suddenly felt that there was something hidden about Nick's illness.

First, I have never heard that my mother has a preference for chocolate.

Second, what my mother asked just now was not what she answered, and she seemed to avoid it deliberately.

However, it cannot be ruled out that the servant gave Nick the chocolate, maybe he was suspicious, and the chance of eating it by mistake is not without it.

Although Li Ke thought so, he still found an excuse to call Liu Ma to the study.

"Mother Liu, how long have you been in Li's house?"

"Returning to the young master, it has been more than half a year."

"I must have heard a lot of things."

"I don't know what the young master is referring to. As servants, we know to strictly abide by our duties."

"It's serious, Mama Liu, don't think too much, I just want to know if you bought dark chocolate for the old lady recently?"

"I bought it, just two days ago." Mama Liu seemed to breathe a sigh of relief, and she became more relaxed when she spoke.

"How long has the old lady been eating chocolate? As a son, I don't even know." Li Ke said with a little self-mockery.

"A few days ago, Nick scared the old lady, so he bought chocolate, which is said to be able to suppress the shock."

"Nick ever frightened the old lady?"

"Yes, master, just two days ago. The old lady also said that she wanted it to look good." Realizing that she had said something wrong, Liu Ma quickly covered her mouth, and he continued to ask as if she didn't see it.

"Did you ever give Nick any chocolate?"
