Nancy smiled and gently patted Florence's hand as she said reassuringly, "Grandma, just leave your treatment to the doctors. All you need to care about is whether Daniel really married me and if we're happy. You love him the most, right? How can you feel at ease if you don't find out for yourself if I'm good enough for him?"
Florence instinctively nodded in agreement. However, when she realized she was openly doubting Nancy, she felt slightly embarrassed.
Meanwhile, Nancy picked up the bird's nest porridge on the bedside table and tested its temperature against her hand before she scooped a spoonful of the porridge and sent it to Florence's lip. "You must eat well so the doctors can treat you. You can only test us when you're healthy and well.
With this words ringing in her ears, Florence instinctively opened her mouth and allowed Nancy to feed her.
Upon seeing this, Daniel's tense shoulders seemed eased up.
Nancy's words and personality were like a tranquilizer that could calm Florence.
When Jason Logan, who was waiting anxiously at the door, saw Daniel coming out, he asked hastily, "How is it? How is it? Did your Grandma expose you?"
Daniel glared at Jason who then hurriedly covered his mouth before he asked again in a hushed tone, "Why did you come of the room then?"
Daniel glanced at the closed door and replied, "Nancy is going to perform acupuncture for Grandma."
Jason widened his eyes in shock. "Your Grandma agreed to it?"
Daniel nodded as he walked away.
"Then, is your Grandma still on a hunger strike?"
The expression on Daniel's face softened as he replied in a gentle voice, "She fed Grandma a bowl of bird's nest porridge."
Dumbfounded, Jason cried out, "Really?!"
"Mm." The corners of Daniel's lips lifted slightly, but Jason who was walking behind him failed to notice it.
"Ah! This is great! Daniel, you're such a lucky man! The woman you randomly married saved our asses!" Daniel exclaimed in delight.
Daniel stopped in his tracks suddenly and turned to stare at Jason. "Shut up! Random woman? If you spout nonsense again, I'll skin you alive!"
Jason, who almost bumped into Daniel when Daniel abruptly stopped moving, hastily said, "No! No! I take that back! Nancy is like my sister-in-law, not some random woman! She's our savior!"
With that, Daniel was finally satisfied. He turned around and made his way downstairs.
Jason hurried after him. "Daniel! Where are you going?"
"The kitchen," Daniel replied without looking back.
'K-kitchen?' Jason was so surprised he almost tripped and fell.
......
Initially, Daniel assumed Nancy was going to instruct the servants on what to cook when she said she was going to cook for his grandmother. However, to his surprise, she was actually cooking without the servants' help.
She asked the maid about his grandmother's preference in detail before she checked the vegetables, seasonings, and meat that Daniel had asked the servants to send over before she started cooking. There was so much fish, meat, eggs, milk, and vegetables that it seemed like Daniel had bought out the entire fresh food department in the supermarket.
Being an organized person, Nancy then instructed the servants to put the things according to categories.
She looked elegant as she moved in the kitchen skillfully and smoothly.
Meanwhile, Daniel sat on a chair in the kitchen and looked at Nancy curiously. He had never seen such a scene before. For some reasons, there was an inexplicable warm feeling in his heart, and he suddenly did not feel like getting up.
Feeling his gaze on her, Nancy turned back without stopping her hand movement as she said, "I'll stew the porridge and soup first. After that, let's have a chat."
"Alright." Daniel nodded.
After Nancy was done, she sat across from Daniel.
The servants tactfully and silently retreated.
Nancy said without beating around the bush, "Grandma told me earlier that there's nothing wrong with her health. She said she colluded with the doctors to fool you into thinking she's seriously ill so she could scare you. However, I felt her pulse earlier and discovered that she's really ill. In fact, it's highly likely that she has an early-stage tumor in her body. I don't know if the doctors had said anything to you about this matter..."
Daniel exclaimed in surprise, "Y-You diagnosed Grandma?"
