Chapter 31 Enemies Are Bound To Meet

Although there was still no news of when she could return to the hospital, the job as a consultant for the medical drama eased Everleigh's worries.

While she still had the weekend free, she brought her two children around Ocpeace City. They visited the amusement park on Sunday. Before returning home, she bought two ice creams for Adrienne. On the way home, Adrienne held an ice cream in each hand. She took a lick from the right one, then the left one, clearly overjoyed.

"Mommy, why are you so happy today?"

Everleigh changed into her indoor slippers. "Because I'm going to work tomorrow."

"Really?" Adrienne's eyes lit up.

"Why are you so happy, huh?"

Alastair was the last one to enter the house. He closed the door behind him and spoke bluntly, "Because once you are at work, we can get takeout."

Hearing this, Everleigh's face froze. She asked discontentedly, "Come on, does my cooking taste that bad?"

"You want the truth?" Alastair looked at her.

The atmosphere was awkward for a moment. Everleigh cleared her throat, waved her hand, and said, "Forget it. Anyway, you guys should order something healthy. Don't get fast food all the time." Adrienne was like a gremlin. She kept running in circles around Everleigh, saying, "Mummy, your cooking is good. Your cooking is better than takeout. It's healthy and nutritious."

Everleigh immediately picked her up and spun her around. "My baby daughter is the best."

In her arms, Adrienne blinked. "Then, Mommy, can we get fried chicken and fries tonight?"

"No, we can't."

Everleigh immediately put her down with a strict look.

"Mommy, you said I was the best, right?"

"Of course," Everleigh leaned over and pinched her face, "But you're a bad child now. That won't work for me. It'll only work on Christopher."
