Her Chapter 438
Chapter 438
Willow was researching an artificial intelligence problem in the laboratory. She had been in the laboratory for three days, eating and sleeping inside.
When Lea took off Willow’s helmet and told her about the dinner, she reacted. “Christmas dinner? Isn’t Christmas in two days?”
Lea explained. “You’ve been in the lab for three days straight.”
“Really? But I haven’t solved that problem yet
“If you don’t go eat, your parents will send the dinner to the laboratory,”
Only then did Willow leave with her. When the two of them returned to the dining room, everyone was already seated
Marcus, Sydney, and Christian were sitting together. Sydney happened to be sitting beside Ivan. When she saw Willow, Sydney immediately waved at her. “Willow, over here!”
Willow looked up and saw Ivan. Sydney was placing a soup box in front of him. The motherly love hidden in her eyes was about to overflow. “This in the soup I made. It’s especially suitable for young people like you. Do you want to try it”
This is the soup I made. It’s especially suitable for young people like you. Do you want to try it?”
Ivan did not even look at her. He hummed in acknowledgment, looking like a rude young man.
He picked up the spoon and tasted it.
Sydney wanted to ask if he liked it, but she swallowed her words, Ivan picked up the soup box, raised his head, and drank it all.
No one could see the tears gushing out of those deep eyes under those misty blue bangs, but they were swallowed together with the soup.
“Ivan, stay away from my mother!” Willow slapped him on the back and lifted him up.
Ivan almost choked to death on the spot
“Willow, what are you doing? Mr. Berry choked! Sydney was terrified. She quickly picked up a tissue to wipe the soup stains on Ivan’s face. “Are you alright?
de and unreasonable!”
Ivan asked. “It’s nothing. Sydney, has Willow always been so rude and
Sydney was stunned for a moment before she suddenly laughed. “Fortunately, Willow is actually ver
very obedient.”
“Your hair is wer” She tried her best to control her emotions, but her hand subconsciously wiped his bangs. She could not help but size up his facial features.
Marcus had been chatting with Christian. Christian was telling him about Ivan’s background. Marcus could not help but look up at Ivan, his eyes tearing up.
Willow’s eyes widened, and tears almost rolled out of her eyes. She turned around and ran towards the bathroom.
Seeing this, Lea’s eyes lit up and she took a deep breath.
Lorenzo happened to see Willow and followed her.
In the bathroom, Willow was wearing a yellow sweater. Her shoulder–length hair fell naturally, looking lively and fresh.
She looked in the mirror and kept wiping her tears. The more she wiped, the redder her eyes became
Lorenzo’s figure suddenly appeared in the mirror.
He had rushed over from work. He was still wearing the black uniform of the military police department and a medium–length windbreaker
He had been too busy recently and had not trimmed his hair in time. It was a little long and his forehead hair fell on his forehead, making him look more handsome.
In the afternoon, he received a text message from Sydney saying that Willow was working overtime at the hospital and couldn’t rush back for Christmas dinner, so they sent it over. If he wanted to be with them, he could only come to the hospital.
Lorenzo’s heart ached when he saw her trying her best to stop herself from crying. “What’s wrong? Did Ivan bully you

Willow whirled around and threw herself into his arms. “Lorenzo, I miss
my brother-
As she spoke, she started wailing Judging from Sydney’s expression, she must have treated Ivan as Joey. The way she looked at him almost broke Willow’s heart.
Lorenzo froze. He reached out his hands and caressed her back with one hand and her little head with the other. He raised his head and breathed. His eyes were red and filled with tears. All of them missed Joey.
Willow did not want to make anyone sad since it was Christmas. She quickly stopped crying and washed her face clean
Ten minutes later, the two of them came out of the bathroom and sat with everyone as if nothing had happened. They began to eat. Content bel0ngs to Nôvel(D)r/a/ma.Org.
However, Marcus, Sydney, and Lea could tell that Willow had cried. Even Lorenzo’s eyes were red. They all pretended not to notice. The others didn’t care either
On such a day, everyone’s eyes turned red after drinking a few glasses of wine.
Not long after Christmas Eve dinner began, excited employees came to toast Lea to express their gratitude and respect for the hospital’s higher–ups.
Christian said that Lea was still young, so he wouldn’t let her drink.
Lea was a doctor herself. She barely consumed any alcohol. She only had a drink in place of alcohol. In the end, everyone came to toast her. Even a few professors from the laboratory came to toast her. In this group, she was the youngest, but imperceptibly, she was the most respected.
Halfway through the wine, Jonah arrived. Lawrence followed behind, bringing a few bodyguards with him as he kept bringing food to the hall.
Lea raised her eyebrows and looked at him. He was wearing a wine–red shirt with a fur coat on the outside. He was so handsome that he looked. firtatious.
Those who didn’t know better would think that he was putting on a show,
Lea asked, “Why are
e you here?”
He narrowed his eyes. T’m here to find investment opportunities from you”
He leaned closer and asked in a low voice, “Is there really one!
Lea narrowed her eyes and thought. “This guy is actually here to spend Christmas with us. Didn’t he like to be alone? When did he change his mind!
“There really is” Lea’s eyes sparkled. “But I don’t work during Christmas.”
Jonah frowned and scanned the hall. There was no Alfred. He roughly understood.
He recalled the incident of Lea holding Blake hostage for Alfred. Then, he thought, “How much pain did Lea feel?
