Broken Memories, Intertwined Hearts novel Chapter 242

When Ethan and Ines returned from the cemetery, it was already dark. They got home and found that Camela had dinner ready and Erica was sorting out paperwork in the study. Hearing their voices, Erica also came out of the study.

"Mom, you're still here? I thought you'd gone back to the Meyer Mansion," Ines said.

Erica came over and put her arm around Ines, saying, "I might stay here for a bit. I'll help Ethan with some stuff from the Meyer Group. Staying at the Meyer Mansion isn't very convenient for me. You and Ethan can focus on the Galeana Group. Don't think I'm bothering your style by being here."

"Mom, how could you be a bother? I'm just worried about you and Camela sharing a room. You might feel uncomfortable."

"Don't worry about it. We're in a unique situation right now. I've been through tough times before. This isn't a big deal."

Camela had already served the dishes. Ines smelled the food and felt nauseous again, so she ended up not eating anything. Ethan looked at her, feeling worried.

"Izzy, is there anything specific you feel like eating?" Ethan asked.

Ines didn't want them to worry too much. She took his hand and said, "Ethan, could I have some salad? Maybe with some lettuce, spinach, and tomatoes?"

Ever since Ines got pregnant, she hadn't dared to eat any cold food she used to enjoy. Ethan wasn't sure if she could eat it now.

Camela laughed and said, "Ethan, it should be fine. Ines is in a special situation now, but her digestion has always been good. Eating food like this once in a while shouldn't be a problem. I'll go make it right now."

Hearing what Camela said, Ethan didn't insist anymore and let Camela make a salad.

Ines called out to Camela's retreating, "Camela, could you put extra peppers in it? I want it spicy."

Erica laughed and shook her head. Ethan couldn't help but laugh too. They felt relieved when Ines was doing better than a few days ago.

"Mom, Ethan, you guys go ahead and eat, don't wait for me. I'll be fine with the salad in a bit," Ines told them.

They both nodded. Ethan took a few bites and then put down his fork. Camela was quick and soon had a salad ready. Seeing the salad, Ines was practically drooling. But before she could eat, Camela had her drink some hot soup, just in case her stomach couldn't handle the cold food.

Strangely, this time Ines didn't throw up after eating. She breathed a sigh of relief. The news of Hunter's death was quickly made public. Phoebe Wagner found out about it on TV and then rushed over from home. Ines was staring blankly at the sofa until Phoebe came over and hugged her. She looked up at Phoebe, "Phoebe, what brings you here?"
