Chapter 1539


    ric only caught a brief glimpse, and it seemed he hadn''t recognized the kids. If he had, things wouldn''t be this peaceful right now.


    Hertha''s heart, previously racing with fear, finally settled down.


    She smiled, saying. "All is well. Bridget. you''ve been such a help."


    Bridget let out a sigh of relief. responding, "It''s what I''m here for.”


    "Mummy, Emmeline is so kind. She gave me candy," Julian said with his sweet, youthful voice, his chubby little hand clutching a brightly wrapped


    piece of candy. his cute face beaming with joy.


    Kids are simple to please: a single piece of candy can bring them immense happiness.


    "Julian, sweetie, we say thank you when someone gives us something," Hertha said tenderly, patting his little head


    "Uh-huh," Julian nodded vigorously, turning back to the young woman standing behind him. "Emmeline, thank you for the candy.”


    "Thanks, Emmeline. I love you so much," Helena chimed in yfully, smiling at the young woman. Her pockets were stuffed with candies, all from


    Emmeline


    That''s when Hertha’s attention shifted to the young woman whe had entered with Bridget.


    As their gazes met, the young woman smiled warmly. "Don''t mention it. You two are adorable. I hope to have two lovely kids like you someday.”


    Her words were a response to the children but were directed at Hertha


    Hertha offered a polite smile, "You surely will."


    Then she looked at Bridget. hoping for an introduction to this woman.


    The woman looked around the room with curiosity, then asked, "Where''s Spencer? Bridget mentioned he was here."


    Caught off guard, Hertha blinked and said, "Spencer? He''s in the kitchen..."


    Before she cowd finish, the woman


    walked towatds the kitchen to find


    Spencer, apron-d, standing by the


    sink wasting dishes. Her gentle


    smile immediately turned to surprise

    “Emmeline, you''re here," Spencer turned around, spotting Emmeline at the door. He ced thest clean dish in the cupboard, wiped his hands, and


    approached her.


    His gaze softened as he looked at Emmeline. "Did you have to wait long? I''ll make you dinner."


    Seeing Spencer''s tender look towards the woman, Hertha realized who she must be!

    Here she was, having her guest''s boyfriend do her dishes.


    How embarrassing and guilt-inducing!


    Hertha quickly exined, "Emmeline, I''m so sorry. Today was an exception, which is why Spencer helped out. Rest assured, I won''t impose on him


    like this again.”


    Emmeline''s warm smile had vanished, and even the most understanding person would mind their partner cooking and doing dishes for another


    woman!


    A hint of displeasure settled in
