"Nelson Castillo, how is Bernard Taylor doing?" Nancy Sallow asked Nelson Castillo with a smile.
"Oh, Auntie, there's nothing serious anymore, but from now on, he needs to be careful with his alcohol consumption when socializing. Bernard's body isn't really suited for that kind of activity."

At that time, Bernard couldn't be persuaded. He went back anyway, to be the dutiful son and take over the family business.
"I understand, I'll have a proper talk with his father," Nancy Sallow said as she looked at her son's pale face and then at the leftover Plain Congee in his bowl. She had made tasty Chicken Soup for him, but it seemed that Plain Congee suited her son better.
