Chapter 60 Small Talk
She did not put the porridge down. “Eat it, don’t waste it. He has done a lot of things sorry to you. This bowl of porridge cannot make up for it. Don’t feel bad after eating it.”
Seeing Jean’s righteous appearance, Mae thought about it and laughed. She was indeed hungry. She was not hypocritical and took the spoon from Jean’s hand.
Anyway, Mark surely did not cook it himself, so there was no need to waste food because of him.
Mae thought in her heart.
After eating, Mae felt refreshed. Just as she was about to get out of bed for a walk, there was a knock at the door.
“Who’s here?”
Jean muttered as she went over to open the door. When she saw a few people standing outside, her face instantly sank.
“What are you doing here?”
Hearing Jean’s extremely unfriendly tone, Mae also looked towards the door, and then her face sank.
The people standing outside the door were from the Lee family. From Mae’s point of view, she could only see the old man of the Lee family.
The Lee family looked at Jean angrily and walked straight into the ward.
One after another, Shane Lee, the old man of the Lee family, and Jackson Lee, the chairman of the Lee Group, came in. He was Mae’s father.
In addition, there were two women and one man. The women were Jackson Lee’s current wife Winona Wentley–Lee and her daughter, Seraphina Lee. They were followed by Winona and Jackson’s son, Lysander Lee.
Seeing the Lee family standing in front of her with different expressions, Mae suddenly felt a little funny.
She probably had never been taken care of by the Lee family like this moment in her life. She is hospitalized and the whole family is here.
She thought that she was some kind of ancestor in the Lee family.
The last time, Shane Lee chased her away at the Lee family’s door. Mae thought that he would not appear in front of her again. Unexpectedly, this time, the whole family has come.
This further verified Mae’s previous guess. Definitely, the family is here to ask her for something.
Thinking of this, Mae raised her eyebrows. She was suddenly curious as to what is in her hand that this group of people could put down their faces to beg her for
She looked at them not saying a word, and looked at the group of people’s seemingly non–existent gestures, and found it a bit funny.
Finally, it was Shane who spoke first. There was a hint of flattery in the smile that he forced out
“Mae, your dad heard that you were injured and brought your aunt and the others to see you. How
are you?”

After Shane was done speaking, Winona and the others also stiffly opened their mouths and smiled
reluctantly.
Mae’s eyelids moved slightly, but she did not respond. The entire ward was embarrassingly quiet.
The Lee family’s expressions were stiff, especially Shane Lee, who was so directly ignored by Mae,
his face was a little uncomfortable with a bit of sullenness added to the original good–looking
expression.
But when he thought of the purpose of his trip, he held back again.
After this matter is resolved, he would give this damn girl a good look.
“Mae, have you eaten yet?”
With that, he turned around and took a thermos from Winona’s hand.
“This is the porridge that your aunt personally stewed for you. The temperature is good right now. So, eat it while it’s hot.”
With that, he went up to serve Mae the porridge in person. Winona quickly seized the opportunity and said lovingly,
“Mae, Auntie put a lot of tonics in it that are suitable for healing. They have been stewed for a few hours; they are all high–quality herbs. You can taste them. If they don’t taste good, Auntie will go back and change them.”
Mae’s eyelids moved slightly, and her eyes fell on Winona’s clenched hands.
“Winona.”
Ye Sheng suddenly spoke up and called her by her first name. That “Auntie” was not worthy of her.
Winona’s expression froze, and a trace of cruelty flashed in her eyes, she raised her eyes and looked at Mae’s face.
“What’s the matter, Mae?”
“It’s nothing, it’s just that when I saw you like this, I suddenly remembered that there’s a job that suits you.”
Winona did not know why Mae suddenly mentioned such an insignificant matter. She thought that Mae wanted to joke with her to ease the atmosphere, so she forced herself to cooperate with her
and said,
“Oh, really? What kind of job? Let me hear it. If it’s suitable, Auntie will apply for it later.”
Mae smiled, and there was a hint of narrowness in her cold eyes. “It’s just a clown in a circus. So funny You are more suitable for this job than a clown actor A clown actor needs to work hard to act
Winona was taken aback for a moment, but in the next second, she understood that Mae was mocking her
Jackson Lee turned around and glared at Winona. There was a warning in his eyes, and he suppressed Winona’s anger.
She withdrew her hand and glared at Mae secretly, her teeth tickling with hatred in her heart.
Little bitch, just wait for me, I will deal with you sooner or later.

“Mae, I heard that you were injured, and scared me. I brought the whole family to see you.”
With that, Jackson looked at Winona and said, “If you don’t want to see your aunt, I will tell her to go back first. So, you can talk to Dad, okay?”
“We have not spoken for many years. Let us just let go of the past, okay? We are father and daughter after all. There should be no enmity between father and daughter, don’t you think?”
Jackson always looked at Mae flatteringly, which made her even more convinced that the Lee family. was probably in big trouble this time, otherwise, they would not be so humble in front of her.
Mae still did not respond. She took the water that Jean poured for her and sipped it casually. The Lee family was directly treated by her as invisible.
Jackson coaxed Mae with nice words. Winona, Seraphina, Lysander, and Shane did not say anything. Old Mr. Lee, who was standing beside Jackson, was a little shameless. He raised his hand and suddenly coughed. He walked forward and said,
“Mae, if you blame Grandpa for severing ties with you in the newspaper, I apologize for this. After all, you are the child of our Lee family. This kind of blood relationship cannot be broken by simply publishing in the newspaper.”
Hearing this, Mae suddenly smiled, and there was a hint of sarcasm in her eyes. “Really? But when I asked you for money to treat my mother’s illness, you didn’t say that, Mr. Lee.”
Mae shouted the title “Mr. Lee” loudly, and the strong sarcasm in her tone made Shane Lee’s face very uncomfortable.
At that time, Mae and her mother were kicked out of the Lee family. Her mother was seriously ill. Mae begged him for some money but he ruthlessly refused. Telling her that she was not qualified to come to the Lee family to ask for money.
