Lea knocked on the door, interrupting them, and walked in. ‘Grandpa, I brought you dinner,” Sheplaced the bag on the table and took out the food
box.
She went to Christian’s favorite restaurant on the way here and grabbed a steak to go.
“Lea, go home,” Christian said. He was not in a mood to cat now..
“Even if you don’t want to eat, they need to eat She turned to look at the people in the conferenceroom. “I ordered food for you guys. It should have been delivered already, so you guys go aheadand eat
Several people looked at her in bewilderment.
They had met her once at Christian’s birthday party, but they had little impression of her. It was onlyafter she moved into the mansion and lived with Christion that they noticed her and knew her onlyby name.
They knew she was Lea Berry only because she looked stunning, called Christian Grandpa, andtalked to him casually.
Lea was calm and collected. She had ordered food for everybody, and people in the conferenceroom had a good impression of her.
Since 3:30 pm, the company’s stock price had been dropping like crazy, just like a river bursting outof its banks. Everyone had been so busy that they couldn’t even grab a drink of water, let alonehave dinner.
Most of thein, who were already old, had some health problems. And after hours of starvingnessand high pressure, several of them were already dizzy and unable to think. They were in great needof rest to refuel.
With this reminder from her Christian looked at everyone and waved his hand feebly. “Go to eat,everyone.”
Victor Fisher, Christian’s secretary, glanced at Lea. “Thank you, Miss Lea? She helped a lot byordering food for so many people.
“No problem. Mr. Fisher. Ell take care of Grandpa here. You guys go ahead and eat” said Helen
The executives and assistants all gave her sine more look and went out of the office, leaving only h
Christian sat in his chair and swallowed as he looked at the delicious food on the table. “Youordered food for all of them?” he asked.
her, Christian, and Jeffrey in the room.
“Yeah,” answered Lea
“Do you know how many people there are?” Christian still didn’t get
I ordered a hundred servings and asked the restaurant to deliver them first, and they’ll send more ifthat’s not enough,” said Lea,
Christian listened in awe. Nearly a hundred people had stayed to work, and lea made a perfectorder.
“It must cost you a lot,” said Christian
“Bulk price, 30 dollars each serving Those who had stayed were mostly executives and even theshareholders, and cheap fast food would only be unappetizing to them.
Christian paused. “I didn’t give you that much pocket money”
“Mom gave me compensation,” Lea explained. Nominally, Matilda was still her mother, and in frontof Christian, she couldn’t call her by her name, lest he thought that she was purposely putting thefamily at odds.
He frowned angrily. You sold your shares?”
“I sold a little bit the other day when the price was high, and I didn’t know it was going to drop today,but I’ve got all my money, and I buy some of the shares back at the lowest poitu.” Lea rubbed herchin for an estimate. “I can only buy seven or eight percent at the most. Les shrugged. That was themost she could do.
Christian was too angry to say anything
The money from the sale of the shares was spent on opening the hospital, and Lorand transferredher pocket money from the surgical fees she earned. She only let him transfer a fraction of themoney, and the other 4 million went to the hospital.
“Grandpa, your dinner’s getting cold. Don’t stress about the stock price. It goes up and down everyday. Your health is what we should really worry about,” Les said, shaking her head in concern.
Christian glared at her. He knew she was trying to comfort him and get him to eat, but her wordswere hard on the ears.
Jeffrey, here, this one’s yours.” Lea handed Jeffrey’s dinner to him.

She had thought about everything when she ordered the meal. When she came to deliver thedinner to Christian, she made sure everyone who stayed could have a good dinner.
Christian looked at her, then at the steak. He took a bite, and it tasted fine. Nothing was moreimportant than eating. He sat by the table and are with Jeffrey, “What about you, Leat Have you haddinner? he asked. He was glad Lea had brought food for him at this hour.
“Oh, don’t wo
worry about me. I had dinner with Alfred,” said Lea,
At the mention of Alfred, Lea’s face softened, looking gentle.
Christian found it annoying. “Why are you with him again?” he asked unhappily. “We’re no match forthe Andrews family. And that boy Alfred lus a pretty face. He looks like he’s good at hooking up withgirls, thought Christian. He was unhappier at this thought. What did you and he
Lea explained, “Nothing, Grandpa. I had a medical checkup in their hospital last time. He sent mesome medicine.” This reason would dispel Grandpa’s pursuing questions and remind him oneragain what Maulda and Helen were like.
Christian paused, and his face dropped, and he lost his appetite.
He had the company’s technicians analyze the video online. They had also hacked Linto theschool’s surveillance system and came up with the same results as the police.
Two years ago, he had made Helen the heir of the Berry family, and he was really proud of her. Hecouldn’t believe that Helen was actual murderer.
After contemplating for a moment, he looked at Lea and said, “He must be up to something to be sonice to you. Stay away from that kid from the Andrews family”
Lea paused. “That’s not gonna happen, I can give up anything but him, she thought,
But it was not the right time to talk about the two of them, and she faintly nodded, Christian wasthen relieved and continued to cat
He was only halfway through his meal when Matilda arrived with Max and some others. As soon asshe entered, she was shocked to see Christian eating at the table. The situation was not what shehad expected.
She had expected that the company was in a mess, and the old man was furious, so she eventhought of what to say, but to her surprise, he was eating, and he looked like he had a pretty goodappetite.
Of course, what she expected was true, but Lea was here earlier and changed the situation
“Christian, how are things going on your side?” she askerl. Matilda wore a white suit dress, pulledup a gentle hair bun, and her eyes were red from crying. She looked like a perfect mother anddaughter–in–law.
Christian slammed his fork on the table. He was 100 angry and slammed it too hard, and thetable let out a loud sound. He stood up and snarled. “Matilda, you’ve come just in time. Explain tome properly. Why would Helen kill someone at school?”
Matilda’s body shook, and her legs bent over, hardly able to withstand Christian’s anger.
It was different from the last time. Christian was really furious now. He had no mercy for Helen thistime.
“Very well” Christian’s anger was replaced by disappointment and desperation. “Our family won’traise a monster. Today, I’ll expel her from the family. From now on. Helen does not belong to theBerry family anymore “
anger was again
Matilda fell to the ground as if her strength had been drained. “Christian, no! Please don’t she criedand begged, and Christian’s ange triggered.
“She murdered her classmate, Matilda! We don’t raise murderers in our family! If the law doesn’tpunish her enough, I’ll make sure the justice be done, Christian growled.

Maulda
What did he say? Justice? Is he going to kill Berry! she thought in horror.
