NovelAppChapter 2898 Rita then remarked casually, "Must Sadie feel the need to speak her mind all the time? Doesn't she feel embarrassed?" Sensing that an argument was about to brew over, Karen intervened hastily, "Ahem! Donna can cook whatever they want after moving with them to Southerhill. You don't need to worry about them, Sadie.
"In fact, I think you should drink more of this soup even if you don't really like it. Just look at how thin you've become. You're practically just skin and bones. You need to eat more so your brain has the energy to cope with your studies in school. And besides, you ought to cherish these last few days that Donna is still around." Sadie did not seem grateful at all when Karen filled her bowl with soup. She felt the need to hate things that Rita liked, so she pushed the bowl away in disgust and nearly spilled its contents.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtSadie tensed when Vince glanced over, but she remained stubborn and said, "I told you the clams are overcooked, Mom. I don't want any more soup, and even if I did, I can take smyself. Don't trouble yourself to fill my bowl. You don't need to worry about me." "Oh, silly me. I'm sorry I hadn't paid attention and filled your bowl even though you just said you didn't like it. I'll have your portion, then." Vince scowled at their antics and was particularly displeased by Sadie's constant complaining of the clams in Sherman's presence. It was clear that she was trying to make herself appear knowledgeable, but she never stopped to think that the food she turned her nose up at was provided for by Vince. Had Vince not saved them from their dire situation back then, she probably would never have had the chance to taste clams! It was preposterous for Sadie to belittle Rita in front of Sherman on top of trying to drive a wedge between them. Sadie probably thought too highly of herself.
Fortunately, Sherman ignored her and finished the entire bowl of soup.
"You have good taste," he remarked to Rita. "It was a lovely soup." Rita beamed with delight when she heard Sherman's praise. Before long, Donna swiftly brought out a few more freshly cooked dishes.
Rita wasted no tin serving Sherman her favorite dish and eagerly encouraged him to try it. She was probably the only person there who naively treated his visit as nothing more than a simple meal together.
Meanwhile, Vince stood nearby and was eager to find an opportunity to slip in a comment requesting more funds to be injected into Russell Group. Parr Group was wealthy after all, and it was only just for them to share sof that success with the Russell Group.
Their families were already connected through marriage anyway, and his daughter would eventually inherit sof the Parrs' wealth too. Receiving a portion of that wealth in advance would do no harm.

"This is another highlight. The vegetables are from our garden and them fresh, Rita Donna picked t interjected and swiftly changed the subject.
She then turned to Vince and said, "Less talking, more eating, Dad. There are a lot of different dishes here that Sherman needs to try, and I'll have to return to the company with him after we're done eating." Vince snorted. "Are you so busy that you can't even spare stfor a meal with your father?"
Rita chewed her food and spoke as if she was short on time, "But I'm having a meal with you right now.
You're at an age where Where you're mon that busy anymore, but Sherman and I have plenty of other responsibilities! Besides, once we've all had our fill, you should take a stroll in the garden with Aunt Karen. It'll help with digestion, and a bit of exercise on Aunt Karen's part will be good for my little brother.
