I wouldn't even touch that myself. Good thing I was around today. Otherwise, Tiffany wouldn't have dared to eat a single bite." "Okay, I'll have Alex sort it out later," Vincent replied after a pause. Then he couldn't resist asking, "How's her appetite been these days? Is she still vomiting a lot?" "She's been alright.
