Chapter 489 Drive Her Away
- In a small, ordinary house on the outskirts of Elmstead, Iris Lancaster was reluctantly eating the wild mushrooms on the table. The mushrooms seemed to have a bitter taste, making her feel uncomfortable. After taking a bite and spitting it out, she exclaimed, "What is this? Why does it taste so bad?"
- Mrs. Mortimer's expression soured as she explained, "Child, these are actually considered the best delicacy in our countryside. They are all-natural, a gift from God. Your pregnancy is likely causing you to dislike them. Just bear with it; once you get over the morning sickness, you won't find them distasteful anymore."
- Realizing she had overreacted, Iris softened and apologized, "Mrs. Mortimer, I'm sorry for my reaction. My body's response is just making me uncomfortable."
