As soon as I entered the door, I saw my mother lying weakly on the sofa.
When she saw me coming in, she struggled to get up and said, "Why did you come back so late, I ate two apples yesterday and I'm starving now."
"I worked late last night, so as not to disturb your sleep, I stayed in a hotel."
I put the lunch box on the coffee table, and my mother immediately grabbed it and ate it greedily.
"At least, at least, at least get someone to bring me some food."
The boxed meal was salad downstairs in the company. I didn't expect her to be so hungry.
It seemed that she really didn't have any money. I guessed she had used it all to support her son.
"Mom, you don't like staying in hotels, and I'm too busy with work. There's really no way."
Upon hearing this, Mom slowed down her eating speed, "Who said that? I'm willing, very willing, to stay in a hotel."
I smiled.
"Okay, I'll arrange it for you right away."
Mom nodded and continued to eat.
I immediately took out my phone and contacted the driver and assistant to drive Mom to the hotel.
Before getting in the car, I specifically pulled the assistant aside and instructed, "Don't book an expensive room, just book a seven-day stay."
