Tonight, there weren't many people eating Thai cuisine, and they didn't order the famous Tom Yum Soup, so the dishes were served quickly.
Joseph Thompson ordered pineapple fried rice for Jaylene Ziel, while he himself ordered curry beef rice, and also two side dishes.
Perhaps both of them were hungry, they didn't talk during the meal and ate silently.
"Why were you crying at the doorway of the ward today?" Joseph asked after Jaylene had finished her meal and put down her chopsticks.
Jaylene's emotions had calmed down. Looking at Joseph across the table, she bit her lip before saying, "My dad doesn't know that my mum has gone, and I don't dare to tell him at this time, so—I lied that my mum is seriously ill and undergoing treatment abroad."
Joseph nodded, giving her an appreciative look, "This is a good lie, as it comforts your father while not letting him see your mother. A rare good lie."
