Chapter 704:
Brenna’s eyes drifted to Ethan’s wounded left arm, then to his right arm still connected to an IV. She asked, “Would you like me to feed you p>
The moment she asked, she wished she could take the question back.
“Yes,” Ethan replied. A wave of joy washed over him. He had only felt this extraordinary happiness twice today.
Brenna looked at the meal and said, “I’m not very good at looking after people. I’ve only ever fed Patrick before. Maybe you should eat on your own p>
Ethan’s lips formed a playful pout. “I’m hurt. Do you really want me to eat alone like this p>
With a gentle sigh, Brenna relented. “Fine p>
When Minna opened the door, Brenna was feeding Ethan.
Unaware of Minna’s presence, Brenna set the fork aside and reached for a napkin to dab at Ethan’s mouth.
Ethan noticed Minna’s expression—she looked on the verge of tears. He leaned closer to Brenna deliberately.
Minna stood frozen at the door, feeling like an intruder, torn between staying and leaving.
She really couldn’t handle the situation, especially since Elsa wasn’t there.
Just then, Elsa returned.
“Why aren’t you inside?” Elsa asked, her spirits high. The doctor had assured her that Shirie Hospital’s burn unit was among the best in the world, using state-of-the-art techniques and the latest medications to ensure Ethan’s recovery without scarring.
Minna tilted her head, and Elsa’s gaze followed. Her face immediately clouded over. She strode in, clearing her throat loudly.
Brenna turned at the sound, gave Elsa and Minna a brief, neutral glance, and handed Ethan the fork.

Ethan gently took it from her. “I’ll eat by myself p>
He knew pushing the situation further might provoke Elsa too much.
But as soon as he held the fork, Ethan offered Brenna a piece of meat. “It’s tasty. Have some p>
Elsa felt a swirl of complicated emotions and wasn’t sure what to say. She harbored a grudge against Brenna, whose lack of tact had once humiliated her. Brenna had asked her to perform a song at Amy’s birthday party, turning her into a subject of ridicule among her colleagues.
Elsa was a renowned singer in Vanland, though few knew she was Ethan’s mother. A singer performing at a private event wasn’t a big deal, and the gossip about it had soon faded.
Yet being directed by Brenna was an insult she couldn’t forgive. Since then, she had nursed a deep animosity toward Brenna and staunchly opposed her being with Ethan.
Now, however, she had just seen Brenna tenderly caring for Ethan, feeding him with genuine care.
