S31 131. Seeking for Attention

Vivian welcomed the morning with a happy face. The message from the servant had made her feel so light. She never expected that her son’s progress could be so rapid.

“If it’s like this, I’ll be able to see my grandchild soon. He or she must be very cute. Oh, I really can’t wait.”

While imagining what the faces of her grandchildren would look like, she stepped lightly. However, when she saw Eva at the door leading to the dining room, her cheerfulness faded.

“Good morning, Mrs. Harper. You look so radiant. What makes you happy?”

Instead of answering, Vivian narrowed her eyes. Her finger was pointed forward. “You…. What are you doing here so early?”

Eva smiled. “Sorry if I haven’t had time to ask your permission. My mother asked me to stay here so she wouldn’t be lonely. That’s why L decided to stay here to take care of her until she recovers.”

With a high arch of eyebrows, Vivian nodded. “Does Jeremy know yet?

“Yes, I asked his permission yesterday. He allowed me here.”

Eva sweetened her smile. However, the corners of Vivian’s lips twitched, almost letting out a grin.

“Okay then. Let’s have breakfast.”

Eva followed Vivian into the dining room. A sly smile was etched on her face. She felt that Vivian could be a chance to carry out her

“Let me help you, Ma’am.” She pulled out a chair for Vivian.

Vivian’s eyebrows furrowed, but her lips still maintained modesty. ” Thank you.”

“You’re welcome, Ma’am.”

Then, Eva’s hand reached out, about to open the napkin for Vivian. Before she did, Vivian quickly raised one hand.

“Could you please wait? I never touch the plate until everyone gathers.

Eva’s expression turned stiff. After blinking, she smiled again. “Sorry, Madam. I didn’t mean to be presumptuous. I’m just used to serving the elderly.”

“Then where is your mother? She didn’t come to breakfast with us?”

Eva’s eyebrows arched high. “Mom?”
