S31 131. Seeking for Attention
Vivian weed 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, | 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 | 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, | 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
mission.

“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 wee, 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? | never touch the te until everyone gathers.
Eva''s expression turned stiff. After blinking, she smiled again. “Sorry, Madam. | didn’t mean to be presumptuous. I''m just used to
serving the elderly.”
“Then where is your mother? She didn’te to breakfast with us?”
Eva''s eyebrows arched high. “Mom?”
“You haven''t seen her this morning? Aren''t you here to look after her?”
Eva''s mouth was open, but her voice was choked. “I saw that she was still sleeping. | didn''t want to disturb her. | thought it''s
better to let her rest a little longer. Today she has a physiotherapy session. She needs
more energy.”
Vivian sneered. “That''s a little strange. She’s usually already awake at
this hour. Sometimes she’s even been here with Ava.”
Realizing the insinuation, Eva''s expression changed. However, after one breath, her lips curled again.
“Thank you for your consideration, Mrs. Bell. But you don’t need to worry. If | were in her room, I''m sure she wouldn''t want to eat
here. My mother would definitely want me to feed her.”
Vivian frowned at Eva''s confidence. She started to feel ufortable

being around the girl.
“Then have a seat. The others wille in a moment.”
Thinking Vivian sympathized with her, Eva smiled wider. Her eyes shined brighter. “Thank you, Mrs. Bell.”
Without asking, she pulled a chair next to Vivian. However, before she could sit down, Vivian''s voice stopped her.
“Sorry, could you sit in the chair over there? This is Mnie''s ce.”
Eva turned still. Her eyes fluttered as she took in the situation. Slowly, her feet moved back from the chair.
“Sorry, | don''t know.”
With awkward movements, she circled the table, approaching the chair in front of Vivian, the first chair from the main chair.
Before she had time to pull it, Vivian cleared her throat.
“Sorry, | mean the chair next to it. That''s Ava’s chair. She is Jeremy''s future wife. Of course she should be sitting next to him.”
Eva''s face froze. When a blink broke the stiffness, she forced he head to nod. Her insincere smile made her face look like a
ghost
“Of course I''m aware of that. | just wanted to apany you in
conversation while you waited for the others to arrive. I''m afraid you neck will hurt if you look at the chair over there for too long.”
“It won''t be long. In two minutes, it''s time for breakfast. Jeremy and
Ava are neverte.”
The curve of Eva''s lips threatened to copse. Before her annoyance peaked, she quickly took a seat further away.
At that moment, Mnie entered the dining room. Seeing Eva, her eyes widened. “Oh? We have a guest?”

Eva''s face brightened a little. Finally, someone weed her with open arms and enthusiasm.
“Good morning, Mrs. Mnie. For the time being, I''m staying here. | want to apany and take care of my mother so she
recovers
faster.”
Mnie''s eyebrows rose higher. “Isn''t that a waste? There''s already Ava taking care of Mrs. Connor. Her performance is good.
Can you be better than her? Besides, now there''s a nurse on standby.”
The corners of Eva''s lips twitched. Before she could respond, Mnie turned her gaze to Vivian.
“Where''s your son and Ava? They haven''t arrived yet.” Mnie sat beside Vivian.
“They should be here any minute. They''re neverte. Except... they were exhausted because ofst night.” Vivian covered her
laughter gracefully.
“Exhausted? What do you mean? Because of the party? Was it that fun? If | didn’t have a phobia of heights, | would have gone
along.”
“Not because of that.” Vivian leaned towards Mnie. “Please don''t tell anyone about this. The two of them slept in the same
roomst night.”
“In Ava’s room? But | didn’t hear anythingst night.” Mnie stared wide eyed.
“In Jeremy''s room. | didn''t hear
anything either, but... yoy might how

third. Then Barbara will soon have one too.”
“This is my first grandchild. Can''t you understand my happiness? This
isn''t aboutpetition, Mnie. Please support me.”
Hearing the conversation, Eva sighed in disbelief. She seemed invisible there.
“What''s wrong with the people in this house? Why do they support Ava with Mr. Filthy Rich? Don''t they realize that Ava is not
worthy?”
The more often Eva heard her sister''s name, the hotter her ears
became. When Ava entered the dining room with a blushing face and got nice greetings, her blood rose to the top of her head.
Why didn’t Vivian and Mnie greet her as warmly as it?
“Good morning, Ava. How did you sleep?”
Vivian''s eyes were so soft. Beside him, Mnie smiled mysteriously. Ava immediately knew what they had previously discussed.
Without realizing it, her cheeks turned red.
“I slept well.”
“How many rounds did you guys yst night?”
Ava gaped at Mnie''s question. Her hands waved nervously.
“What do you mean, Madam? After showering, we immediately rested.
“Is that so?" Mnie shifted her gaze towards the man who had just entered the dining room. “You didn’t take advantage of the
opportunity?”
Jeremy''s eyebrows furrowed. Pulling out a chair for Ava, he asked, ” What opportunity?”
“To make children. You shouldn''t dy any longer. You''re already at a ripe age. Besides, your mother can’t wait.”
