Eva was always on their minds?Queenie was probably just trying to annoy her!Eva looked at Queenie's gleeful expression, and her face turned cold. “It’s fine. You can order your flowers elsewhere.”She did not want to get involved with anything that had to do with them.Her business was doing very well right now, and with Nathan promoting it, many businesses in North City were ordering from her. She did not lack any business.Eva did not need Queenie’s so-called offer to help with her business.Queenie grunted when Eva rejected her without hesitation. She looked Eva up and down in a strange manner and could not help being sarcastic.“Are you rejecting my business because you don’t like the fact that I’m with Mason now?”“Five minutes.”Eva lowered her head to look at the laptop’s screen again. She said coldly, “If you’re done with what you have to say, the butler will show you out.”“Hah! Getting jumpy, aren’t you?”Queenie smiled and walked in front of her. She glanced at
Queenie sat on the long bench outside the municipal hospital’s gynecologist. Dr. Lisbon was standing next to her.“I’ll have to trouble you again.”Queenie said in a low voice and pushed a card into Dr. Lisbon’s hand.Dr. Lisbon smiled and wanted to reject it, but Queenie was insistent. She ultimately kept the card in the end.“We’re university friends. There's no need to be so formal with me.”Dr. Lisbon smiled and said, “I’ll have to help you when you’re getting bullied so badly by your sister.”“You’re the best.”After Queenie was done talking, she spotted Pamela coming toward them and sat up straight with a frown.When Pamela arrived, she saw Queenie frowning and looking very pale. She put the prescription into Queenie’s hand and could not help cursing at Eva again.That slut!“Come on. Let’s not sit here any longer. I’ve gotten you a hospital ward."Pamela helped Queenie stand up slowly, and Dr. Lisbon assisted them as well.By the time Eugene and Mason arrived at the
Eva looked at Eugene coldly when she heard his words.He wanted her to apologize?No way!Eugene was furious when she said nothing. He grabbed her hand and dragged her toward Queenie’s bed. “What sort of attitude is that? Queenie is your sister. Apologize!”“Why should I apologize? I didn’t do anything!”Eva glanced angrily at the Queenie and Pamela, who were sneering, and her voice got even colder.“They've always been doing this since I was young. They pretend to be victims and ask for sympathy, and they even twist the truth about things that never happened. I'll never apologize!”She did not hide her detest of them, and Eugene’s hand trembled in anger.Why did he have such a daughter?Eva had never been this way before!Pamela noticed the look of disappointment in his eyes. She said sarcastically, “Oh, I know that Mrs. Langley doesn’t need to apologize. You’re a Langley now who isn't afraid of anything. We’re probably just nobodies to you.”Eugene’s expression fell.Quee
Were his daddy and mommy so distant from each other?It also looked like his daddy was getting angry.Max quickly nudged Mia, and they went to Nathan and Eva immediately. They lifted their heads innocently and looked at them expectantly.Eva gently rubbed their heads when she saw them staring.“What’s wrong?”“The long holidays will be here soon, Daddy and Mommy. How about going somewhere for a holiday?”Max nuzzled Eva’s thigh, and his voice was sugary sweet when he suggested, “I heard my team members at the club say that there's an old town in River City that's really fun!”Mia nodded as well. “Daddy, Mommy, I want to go on holiday to the old town. Our family hasn't had a holiday together yet.”The children looked forward to it as they blinked at Eva and Nathan, hoping they would agree to this.These two little rascals.Eva kissed them gently on each side of their cheeks. Before she could say anything, Max said pitifully again, “Let’s go, Mommy. We haven’t even visited the
Eva smiled when she saw the grim look on Yelena’s face.Even though she was just teasing Yelena, she really did hope Yelena would take special care of the Pygmy Water Lilies.These flowers were too fragile, and the price of the flowers was high. If she could successfully expand and plant them in the estate, it would be the signature flower of her business.The Pygmy Water Lily was a flower worthy of it.Eva personally planted each of the seedlings before she could finally relax. That was when the head worker came over to her to show her the order list.He did not dare to disturb her previously as she was busy planting the Pygmy Water Lilies.Eva glanced through the orders. They were common flowers, and she passed the order list to Yelena. “You can handle this, Yelena. Just get the workers to collect the payment.”“Alright.”Yelena nodded. Eva stretched lazily and washed the dirt from her hands. That was when she was told that someone who claimed to know her wanted to see her.
That night, Mason drove home and saw the living room lights in his villa turned on the moment he got out of his car.Was there someone in his house?He was living alone and did not have any nanny or maids in his house. He remembered turning off the lights before leaving.Who was in there?Frowning, he opened the door carefully.The living room door was facing the sofa, and he immediately saw Tyler sitting there and watching him.Frowning, a cold look flashed in Mason's eyes. The expression on his face turned grim.“What are you doing here?”“Don’t be so cold, Mason. We’re working for Aunt Wanda together, after all.”Tyler smiled and said, “Aunt Wanda misses you. She asked me to come get you.”Mason closed the door and looked at Tyler coldly. “Just tell me whatever you need to say.”“Come on, Mason. You’re still the same. You refuse to be friendly with me.”Tyler shrugged helplessly and looked at Mason from the corner of his eyes. “Mason, Aunt Wanda has been disappointed wit
The next morning at Lane Residence, a scrumptious breakfast was laid out on the table. It looked delicious as there was a variety to choose from. There were even danishes and various buttery pastries that tempted one to dig in immediately.Queenie rested her chin on her hand as she waited at the table.She was famished, and her stomach was growling. However, she could only glance at the food on the table before looking away.Pamela tried to talk her into having breakfast.“My dear daughter, just have something to fill up your stomach if you’re hungry. A pregnant woman can’t function on an empty stomach. You might be able to endure this but not the baby inside of you.”“Stop nagging me, Mom. I’m waiting for Mason to have breakfast together.”Queenie looked at Pamela with annoyance. Her voice was shrill. “Mason said he's going to have breakfast with me this morning. He'll probably be here soon. How can I start breakfast without him?”She stared at the door patiently.Mason had se
Eva had replied so fast on the phone that Eugene could not believe his ears.“Did you just say ‘no’? Evie, the engagement party is tomorrow. Stop being so emotional. You should attend it with Nathan. It’s your sister’s engagement, after all."He tried his best to talk Eva into it. He was already on cloud nine over what would happen on that day.Once everyone witnessed Nathan Langley and Mason Young present at the engagement party, they would get busy trying to get into his good graces.Who would dare look down on him when his daughters had married the CEO of Langley Corporation and the CEO of Scope Investments?They previously made fun of him for not having a son. Who would dare say a thing now that both of his daughters had married such great partners? As their father, he would become someone who deserved respect as well.This was especially for the Lanes’ relatives. They could not wait to curry favor with him.Eugene’s eyes narrowed at the thought of how much he was going to b
