Settling Yvette on her lap, Lauren handed her a piece of apple, "Are you hungry, Yvette?"

Yvette nodded, gripping Lauren's clothes with one hand while nuzzling further into her embrace.

"Then have a PB&J and some milk first. We'll have an early dinner later, okay?"

Not a fan of letting Yvette eat a lot of snacks, Lauren asked the servants to make a PB&J and gave her some milk, which Yvette immediately drank after taking it from her.

Her heart calmed seeing her daughter return to her sweet self.

But just as she wanted to speak, Yvette choked on the milk a little. "Cough, cough..."

Lauren patted her back to help soothe her discomfort, and just as she was about to get some water, a cup of boiling water was handed to her, which she knew immediately was too hot to drink with one touch. "Too hot! Get a warmer one!"

With that, Willy hurriedly got another cup, which Lauren had a feel before giving to Yvette.

Seeing that Willy sat on the far side of the couch, fixing his gaze on them, looking somewhat piteous as she put the cup down, Lauren fixed Yvette's hair before suggesting to her.

"Didn't you say you wanted to see Daddy? Why don't you let Daddy give you a hug?"

Before Willy could even reach his arms out, Yvette burst out crying again. "You lied, Mommy! You lied to me..."

She then turned around and threw herself into Lauren's arms, clinging onto her tightly, crying uncontrollably. Her sudden outburst shocked Lauren.

"Heavens, Yvette never cried much growing up. What's up with her today?" she couldn't help wondering.
