He took a bite of cereal, but not only did his stomach ache not lessen, it even worsened.Â
He immediately frowned and thought of the medicinal cuisine made by Sadie. Every time he ate it, it would reduce a lot of pain. HeÂ
subconsciously said, “Ask the kitchen to make a medicinal cuisine that Sadie cooked before.”Â
Anthony was in a difficult position. “Ms. Douglas personally cooked the medicinal cuisine.”Â
“It’s just a medicinal cuisine. Is it so difficult?”Â
Jeremy was in pain and his tone was not good.Â
The maid at the side replied, “Jeremy. I heard that Missy has to prepare the rice for that medicinal cuisine a day in advance. She has to get up early the next day to prepare the ingredients. All of them have to be fresh. Moreover, the order and timing of the cooking have to be particular. If there’s a slight mistake, it won’t work.Â
“This is a prescription that Ms. Douglas got from an old Chinese doctor. We didn’t get it, so all these years, Ms. Douglas had personally prepared medicinal porridge!“After Jeremy heard this, for some reason, he felt even worse.Â
He raised his hand to cover his face. So Sadie had sacrificed so much.Â
He really didn’t know in the past and thought that medicinal cuisine was very simple.Â
Jeremy was starting to regret it. He had really neglected Sadie tooÂ

much previously. He did not even know how much Sadie had secretly sacrificed.Â
It was him, as a brother, who did not do his job well enough.Â
Sadie was not acting out of spite. She had suffered too much. She should have been hurt!Â
Jeremy looked at Anthony. “Bring me the gifts that Sadie gave to Lorena to apologize.”Â
Anthony was a little surprised. “Isn’t that an apology for Miss Lorena? If Jeremy wants to ask them back, wouldn’t it be unfair to Miss Lorena? She didn’t feel safe living under someone else’s roof. If Jeremy continues like this, how can Miss Lorena still have a foothold in Douglas family?”Â
“Jeremy can’t be soft–hearted just because of this bowl of medicinal cuisine. Miss Lorena even made cereal for you and even got injured.”Â
Jeremy thought about it for a while and recalled how Lorena was injured just now. His heart softened.Â
He said, “Forget it. Take back my gift first. Let’s not touch anything else for now. “At the very least, he had to make changes first.Â
At night, after Sadie returned, she ate and locked herself in her room.Â
Not long after, someone knocked on the door and Jeremy’s voice sounded. “Sadie, it’s me.Â
Sadie walked over and opened the door. He asked calmly, “What’s the matter?”Â
“This is for you.”Â
Sadie saw a box with an Emerald Choker inside. It looked veryÂ
familiar Wasn’t this the apology gift she had given Loreton in the patÂ
What did Jeremy mean?Â
Jeremy’s lone was filled with guilt “Sadie. I knows I’ve let you suffer m the past, so I took the necklace hack III hry another necklace for Lorena as compensation, but this necklace is different for you! shouldn’t have let you give it away”Â
Jeremy regretted it all day. He shouldn’t have done this on the day of the banquetÂ
It was his fault for not thinking things throughÂ
Sadie was inhesitation. She did not expect Jeremy to ‘send‘ the necklace back!Â
How rare!Â
In her past life, she had never taken these back even until her deathÂ
Sadie lowered her eyes and said calmly. “No need. There’s no such thing as returning something that has been given away”Â
“Sadie, just accept it. Otherwise, I won’t feel good. Take it as my compensation to you, okay?”Â
What kind of compensation was this?A slap and then a sweet date”Â
Sadie saw Lorena hiding in the corner from her glimpse. She deliberately exclaimed, “Jeremy, I have to criticize you. I gave this gift to Lorena willingly. How can you take it away for no reason? Aren’t you breaking Lorena’s heart? Right, SisterÂ
Jeremy turned his head and saw Lorena. He immediately felt a little guilty.Â
After all, he had never asked Lorena.Â
Lorena braced herself and walked out. “Sadic, actually, those gifts. have always been temporarily with me. I’m also very happy to return them to their rightful owners. After all, how am I qualified to accept such a precious gift? I’ve always known my limits.”Â
Lorena sounded exceptionally sincere. However, after Lorena finished speaking, she immediately turned around and left. Reaching out to wipe his tears, she looked sad.Â
Jeremy panicked. “Lorena?”Â
Sadie leaned against the door. “Jeremy, you should go to coax her.”Â
Jeremy pursed his thin lips. “Sadie, I was sincerely apologizing to you just now, but why did you deliberately say those words to hurt Lorena?Â
