“I’m fine. I’ll order takeout later. You go take care of Aunt Feng.”
“Call me if you need anything.”
“Okay.”
Although Summer was worried, she had to leave. Going downstairs, she ran into Zane coming down from the top floor, and she had a sudden idea. “Sophia’s injury is considered a workplace injury. She has no one to take care of her tonight. It’s convenient, since you’re on the floor below, help look after her.”
Zane:“No problem.”
Seeing Zane’s ready agreement, Summer was pleased. “Thanks then.”
Zane:“You’re welcome. I’ll tell Liam.”
He immediately called Liam to convey Summer’s message. Liam readily agreed.
After hanging up, he went to the study.“Mr. Shaw, Miss Wells‘ friend encountered Zane in the elevator and said that Miss Wells had no one to look after her tonight, so she asked us to help.” Xander looked up from his computer screen. Wearing silver–rimmed glasses, his striking eyes were deep and indifferent, with a hint of doubt.“Asking three male werewolves to look after a fragile beautiful female omega with mobility issues at night?”
“Ah, this-”
With this interpretation, Liam was a little confused. He and Zane hadn’t thought that much.“Then, Mr. Shaw, what do you mean?”
“Contact her first and ask about her wishes.”
“Okay.”
Liam nodded. In front of Xander, he called me.“Miss Wells, your friend asked us to take care of you, and Mr. Shaw asked me to ask about your wishes.”
I was drowsy on the recliner. Receiving Liam’s call, I was startled. Summer, you sly fox!
“My wishes?”
“Yes. Considering we are all females, Mr. Shaw was afraid you might mind, so he asked me to ask first. Miss Wells, would you mind?”
Asked like that, how could I object? I replied politely and subtly, “I don’t mind, but would it be too much trouble for you?”
Liam:“No trouble at all. I’ve stewed wild ginseng chicken soup. I’ll bring it over later.”
“That’s the soup you made for Mr. Shaw. It’s not good for me to drink it.”

“Then let him come down, and you can drink it together.”
Manis
I was startled and quickly said, “No, no, no! Absolutely not! Liam, I’ve already ordered takeout!” At the mention of takeout, Liam became anxious. “How can you eat takeout? Your body is so weak; this is the time you need to replenish your health. How about this, I’ll come down to pick you up, and you can have dinner with Mr. Shaw, and I’ll cook a few more dishes.”
“…No, no, no!!”
“That’s settled then.”
Liam hung up. I was dead mentally.
In the study. Xander looked at the smiling Liam and sighed. “You’re getting more willful as you get older.”
Liam:“Takeout isn’t as good as my chicken soup. Plus, I heard from Zane that Miss Wells was injured for work. Such a good girl, would you bear to let her eat takeout alone at home?”
Xander didn’t answer the question of whether he could bear to see that.
“Then I’ll go down to pick up Miss Wells now.”
Liam turned to leave. From behind, Xander’s quiet voice followed, “Aren’t you stewing soup? Don’t need to watch the fire?”

His tone was casual. His pale, slender hand slowly took off his glasses and placed them aside.
Liam turned back to look at him, stunned for a couple of seconds before suddenly slapping his forehead.“Oh dear, I’m getting old and senile. This soup can’t be left unattended, so please, Mr. Shaw, make the trip.”
Xander sighed helplessly and got up.“There’s no other way.”
Downstairs. I gave Liam my apartment’s elevator code. I thought I’d beg him to let me off when he arrived… but then I saw Xander, dressed in beige home clothes. Instantly, I lost all strength and resolve.
