S31 98. Jeremy''s n
Eva''s eyes sparkled when she saw the menu served on the dining table. She often went to restaurants with the men she dated.
However, the dishes they ordered had never been so luxurious.
“Wow, I''m really honored. I just came to visit my mother. | didn’t expect you to wee me with this special dinner.”
The people around her exchanged nces. Even the twins’ eyes widened to the maximum. Only Ava didn’t dare to raise her
head. She just focused on preparing food for her mother who was sitting next to
her.
“This dinner is not to wee you, Eva,” Louis said unexpectedly. This is to wee Mrs. Connor.”
Several people could not help but smile. They thought Eva deserved those words. If Barbara had been there, she would have
laughed and whispered with Philip.
“Louis, why did you talk like that?” Kara rebuked gently. “Eva is Mrs. Connor''s daughter. If we wee her mother, that means
we
wee her too.”
“But Louis is right, Mommy. We''re here to celebrate Mrs. Connor''s recovery, not to wee Eva. We didn’t even know she was
coming.
In order to cover up her embarrassment, Eva faked augh. “Yes, that''s what | meant. | feel lucky to be invited to this dinner.
Thank you for your generosity, Harper Family.”
Ava secretly nced at her sister. She wondered if Eva''s veins had broken or what. How could she mention the Harper family
with confidence? While in fact, there were Vivian and Mnie who did not have thest name Harper.

Not wanting the atmosphere to be stiff, Vivian spread her arms. “Since dinner time has arrived, let''s enjoy it. Who wants to
lead the prayer?”
Louis raised his hands high. “I have prepared a special prayer for tonight. May | lead the prayer?”
Vivian chuckled. After Louis said a very sweet prayer, they ate
peacefully, at least, until Emily noticed the food on Ava’s te wasn''t decreasing. Ava was busier taking care of her mother.
“Ava, don''t forget your te. You must eat too while feeding your mother.”
“If not, do it alternately with Eva so you still have time to eat.”
Eva who was about to eat thest bite spontaneously froze. Noticing the nces from the others, she put her spoon back on the
te.
“Sister, do you need help?” she asked in a sweet tone.
Ava wiped her mother’s mouth then prepared the next bite. “No. You just eat.”
Eva put on a hurt look. “Come on, Sister. You don’t have to always pay attention to Mom just because there are other people. I''m
the one who always takes care of her at home, remember?”
Everyone turned still. They peered at Ava with furrowed brows. Sh seemed to be holding back her breath. She had to be in
shame and
pain.
“You usually take care of Mrs. Connor?” Jeremy broke the silence.
Eva nodded gracefully. “Yes, when she was still healthy, Ava was rarely at home. So, | cooked and took care of everything.”
“If I''m in good health, even Emily can take care of me,” Vivian said. casually, reaching for a ss. “Is that true, Emily?”

The little girl pursed her lips. “If Mrs. Bell is in good health, what do | need to take care of? She can take care of herself. Eat,
bathe, sleep.”
As Vivian chuckled, while Eva froze. However, instead of feeling insulted, the girl raised her chin.
“We don’t have servants like your family, Miss Harper. So, we have to do everything ourselves. Cooking, washing, cleaning. Only
after that can | go to the boutique. After work, still have to take care of the house again. My daily life is really busy.”
Emily blinked innocently. “I think Mommy would have been much more tired. She had to work, take care of the house, and take
care of baby Louis and me. Mommy was amazing!”
Ava is amazing too, Emily,” Louis said, raising his eyebrows. “She has to look after Grandma Mnie, look after her own mother,
and take care of her own needs. She takes care of three people at once! Not to mention when we give her missions. She''s also
much more tired than Eva.”
“Little Angels, it''s not good topare like that,” Kara whispered, shaking her head faintly.
The twins pursed their mouths together. “Sorry, Mommy.”
Seeing the two toddlers being reprimanded again, Ava let out a fair sigh. She knew they had be cynical to protect her.
“Everyone has their own busy schedule and priorities. What''s important is not how much they can do, but how much impact it
has on their life and other people. So, whether you are busy working or taking care of the house, both are equally noble.”
Everyone was stunned to hear Ava’s words. The girl had never spoken so much and in such depth.
“Ava is right. There''s no point inparing who is busier. Louis, let''s

apologize to Eva.”
After one nod, the twins turned in the same direction. “We''re sorry,
Eva.”
“We don’t mean to demean your busy life,” Louis added.
Eva smiled with satisfaction. “It''s okay. People have always liked topare us.”
Suddenly, Mrs. Connor''s fingers moved slowly to grab Eva''s hand. Don’t be sad. You are still my daughter,” she said softly.
Eva smiled. “Thank you, Mom.”
Meanwhile, Ava looked down. Not wanting her awkwardness to be detected, she ate. The others could only look at her in pity.
“Ava must be sad. Her mother ys favorite,” Louis whispered with his lips pursed.
“I hope Uncle''s orderes quickly. That way, we can prove to Ava that we love her.”
Louis nodded. “Yes, even though her own mother doesn''t really likeText content ? N?velDrama.Org.

Without wasting time, Louis got down from the chair. “Emily,e

Emily put on azy look. “You are so spoiled. You have to be apanied to the toilet?”
Seeing that gesture, Kara finally understood. The twins were acting.
“Do you know Louis and Emily’s n?” Kara whispered to her
husband.
Frank shook his head. “It must have something to do with the news Jeremy received. Let''s just wait.”
A few momentster, the twins came back singing a song. They walked sideways, holding a white tart cake decorated with
strawberries and a small candle. Kara and the others pped their hands, singing along.
“Happy birthday to you. Happy birthday to you.”
Ava was stunned to see two toddlers walking towards her. When the cake arrived, her eyes filled with tears. Her smile was full of
emotion.
“Happy birthday, happy birthday. Happy birthday, Ava.”
“Come on, Ava. Make a wish and blow out the candles.”
Ava put her hands together in front of her chest. After closing her eyes for a moment, she blew out the candles. Everyone
apude enthusiastically, except for two people-the woman who was possibly” still too weak and Eva who was unable to control
her jealousy.
