Alexander called his assistant to buy food and necessities to deliver to the door. Then he ordered the assistant to leave it at the
door, and someone would pick them up later. The things he got included noodles and various other food.
After that, he thought about how they would take a while to buy and deliver them. He knew Galen would be starving by then.
Alexander turned around and looked in a daze at the things in the kitchen, arms akimbo.
‘As the old saying goes, no one could make bricks without straws. I'm in a dilemma!’
"Letdo it." Austin, who was rubbing his legs, appeared at the kitchen door. He assumed that an influential person like
Alexander would not cook by himself.
Alexander turned around and raised his eyebrows, looking at Austin with undisguised suspicion. "You?"
Although Austin was grimacing from the pins and needles in his legs, he still felt a rush of dissatisfaction with Alexander's attitude.

First, Alexander doubted his medical skills. Now, he was doubting Austin's cooking skills. How could Austin, as a man admired by
many for years, be so incompetent in Alexander's eyes?
Austin went to the fridge and took a few eggs and jars before removing two bowls from the cupboard. He broke the eggs into the
bowl and beat them, saying, "Although the food here can't compare to the ones at your place, it's still home-cooked food. It won't
be unpalatable."
As he spoke, he turned on the fire and opened the pot lid.
"Hey—" Before Alexander could stop him, the pungent stench overwhelmed Austin.
"F*ck!" Austin swore aloud before stumbling a few steps back into a fit of coughs. He did not expect such a stench, nor did he
expect food to be in the pot.
"How long has it been since you washed that pot?" Alexander asked with a frown.
After all, the taste of the food was as crucial as its hygiene.
Austin hurriedly put the bowl down and pinched his nose with one hand before carrying the pot to the sink with the other. He threw
it in the sink and said, "How would | know? | never used it..."
Alexander glanced at the bin filled with empty instant noodle packages and quickly guessed how Austin had spent the past two
days.
Austin was a little embarrassed as it was like a slap in his face after his arrogant statement.
"Back then, the servants did all the cooking. When they fell sick two days ago, | had to prepare my own food. | didn't know there
was still soup in the pot."

After seeing everyone in the house fall sick one after another over the past two days, thoughts of the virus filled Austin’s mind.
Besides figuring out what kind of virus it was, his thoughts were full of anger and the hunger to kill. Eating was not his top priority;
he only did so to fill his stomach.
"Throw that pot away," Alexander said, "I've got someone to bring sfood over. It'll be here soon. You can helppick it up
from the door later."
"Me?" Austin was dumbfounded.
"Otherwise?"
Austin was the only healthy person in the room. With that said, Austin, being alive and kicking with a flushed face, starkly
contrasted how weak he was a few days ago. Not only had his energy recovered, but it was also greatly enhanced.
‘Could that be the function of the "symbiote" that Dominic mentioned before passing out?’ Alexander pondered as he sized Austin
up thoughtfully.
