Ice-Cold Ceo, Crazy Love

Chapter 353

That morning, Eason brought Emma to the Nicholas‘ Residence.

He had informed his family in advance, so Judith and Penny were waiting at home.

Upon seeing Eason and Emma arrive, a smile couldn’t help but spread across Judith’s face.

It seemed Eason was finally settling down.

She even felt like she could already envision a future surrounded by grandchildren.

“Emma, come, sit here,” Judith warmly invited.

Eason, aware of Emma’s fear of strangers, subtly intercepted Judith’s gaze and then led Emma to sit to the side.

Judith, observing Eason’s carefulness, smiled even wider.

She found joy in her son’s happiness. Seeing him content in his marriage brought her the greatest pleasure.

“Penny, this is the birthday gift I’ve prepared for you,” Eason said, taking out a meticulously wrapped gift box.

However, Penny didn’t reach out to take it.

Suppressing her tumultuous emotions, she said softly. “Eason, give it to me at my party tonight.”

Eason felt a tinge of guilt but explained, “Sorry, I’ve got an urgent business matter tonight and might not make it to your party. So, I’m giving you your gift now.”

Penny’s hand tightened instantly.

Penny thought, ‘Business matter?

‘Was it really a business matter?’

She looked at the silent Emma, resentment nearly spilling over.

“What was so special about Emma?

“In such a short time, she had ensnared Eason to the point where he was neglecting me.

Penny’s heart was in turmoil, but she managed a strained smile, “Come on, Eason, can’t you postpone it? I really want you

there.”

Eason softened a bit at Penny’s appearance but knew better that taking Emma out was one thing while taking her to a party was another.

He thought to himself, ‘With Emma’s current state, even a slightly larger crowd could frighten her.
