Broken Memories, Intertwined Hearts

Chapter 188

Izzy didn't feel sorry at all. She followed Phillip's words and said, "Yeah, I'll help you get back at him next time."

Phillip laughed, put down the big scissors in his hand, looked at Izzy, and said, "Long time no see, you've become a sensible girl, knowing right from wrong rather than always siding with that jerk."

Izzy cuddled Phillip's arm, "Grandpa, I've always been sensible." Phillip gave a cold snort, clearly being skeptical of her words. Not having seen Izzy for a long time, Phillip couldn't help but take a few more glances at her, only to find that she had put on some weight and looked healthier.

"You've been looking a lot healthier recently, and you've gained a bit of weight," Phillip looked at Izzy and said seriously.

Izzy was a little stunned, this was the second person in a few days who had told her she had gained weight. Had she really gained that much weight? Why was everyone saying that?

"Is it that obvious?" Izzy asked.

Phillip nodded in satisfaction, "He's finally got some skills. Seeing that you look so healthy，I'll stop cursing him for now ."

He was originally worried about Izzy’s health, so he had been urging Ethan to bring her back. Now that he saw Izzy was well taken care of, he was more relieved than angry.

Izzy went into the house with Phillip. There was only Phillip in the house, no one else was in sight. Izzy couldn't help but walk into the kitchen and ask Eda, "Eda, where's the scale in the house?"

Eda looked at Izzy in confusion, "What kind of scale are you looking for?"

"The one that can weigh people."

"Oh, I think there is one." Eda pointed to a corner in the yard, "I think it's there, it's used by the lady of the house for weighing herself."

Izzy nodded and walked in the direction Eda pointed, and sure enough, she saw an electronic scale. She took a deep breath and nervously stepped on it, and the result scared her.

She weighed herself three times up and down, still not believing the number in front of her: 49 kilograms. It was a bolt from the blue. She had been maintaining around 40 kilograms for many years. When she was discharged from the hospital, she weighed herself and it was only 45 kilograms. In just one month, she had gained a full 4 kilograms.

She didn't think she had eaten anything special. She just thought that what he cooked was to her taste, and she ate a little more every day.

Thinking of this, Izzy immediately called Ethan. As soon as the call was connected, Ethan heard Izzy's frustrated voice.

"Ethan, what the hell have you been feeding me this month?"

Ethan was confused, "What do you mean, what have I been feeding you? Isn't it just the regular diet?"

Izzy couldn't control her emotions, her voice getting louder and louder, "Are you sure you didn't add any hormones to the food? This is too much, I've gained four kilograms in a month."

Ethan laughed. He knew why she was angry, "I thought it was something serious, isn't it just a little weight gain? It's not a big deal." He had noticed this a long time ago. It seemed that whenever she gained weight, it went to her face and waist. Recently, when he held her in his arms to sleep, he clearly felt that her body had become much softer, and he couldn't help but hold her more.Belonging © NôvelDram/a.Org.

"On average, gaining one kilogram a week is very normal. Don't worry, what I've been feeding you is definitely not harmful to your body. There's no need to worry too much." Ethan patiently explained.

"Ethan, I hate you. I'm not coming back. You can eat alone." Izzy hung up the phone with a "pop".

Ethan put away his phone with a smile, if she didn't come back, he would go find her. Without her, the house was cold, and he definitely wouldn't go back alone.

The more Izzy thought about it, the angrier she became. He was the closest person to her, and he must have known that she had gained weight, but he never told her.

Phillip also saw Izzy making a fuss on the phone in the yard. When he saw her come in, he couldn't help but ask worriedly, "What's wrong? Did you have a fight with Ethan?"

Izzy forced a smile that was uglier than if she were crying, "No, I just asked him what he's been feeding me lately. Why did my weight suddenly skyrocket?"

Phillip looked at her and couldn't help but burst into laughter.

Izzy said unhappily, "Grandpa, what are you all thinking about all day?"

"I think you look much better now than before." Phillip's words were absolutely heartfelt. He thought the current Izzy looked much healthier. "Don't go getting any crazy ideas. Don't even think about losing weight, I won't allow it. If you come back thinner next time, I’m going to give you trouble." Phillip raised his voice.

Izzy hung her head dejectedly and said, "I know, Grandpa."
