"It's okay!" I shook my head. I didn't eat anything at the banquet, so I was a little hungry at this time. I looked at Aunt Aubree and said, "Is there anything else to eat at home?"

"Yes, yes..." As she spoke, she ran into the kitchen and brought out a dish of stewed eggs and a pot of chicken.

Feeling a little surprised, I looked at her and said, "Aunt Aubree, it's already 12 o'clock. How can you..."

It was amazing that it could still be hot at this time.

She smiled and said, "Sir called and told me that you didn't eat anything at the banquet. You must be hungry when you come back!"

I was stunned. For a moment, I didn't know what to feel.

What he cared about was the child, or me?

A muffled groan came from outside. Aunt Aubree served me a bowl of rice and said worriedly, "Why don't we call the police?"

I shook my head and chewed slowly. "No need!"

The two of them were evenly matched, but they would not die.
