Chapter 1874


    Darcie hesitated for a moment. She was sure Trevor had taken it before she let go. ‘Did he do that on


    purpose?’ she thought.


    Thoughts of the ne crash filled her mind, and she was about to speak when a voice from afar


    interrupted.


    “What’s happening?”


    Wenham had just finished paying his respects to histe wife. He was startled when he heard the


    commotion and walked over to see what was going on.


    “I identally dropped the oats I made for Ste,” exined Darcie. She then turned to Trevor, saying,


    “I’m sorry, Trevor. I thought you had it. Did you get burned?”


    Trevor nced at her inquisitively, withdrew his gaze, and said, “It’s okay. It’s just a shame Ste can’t


    taste your food now.”


    He looked at his sister affectionately and said, “Sorry, sis.”


    Ste chuckled, “I think I’ve had my fill of Darcie’s cooking for now. I couldn’t have finished that bowl of


    oats anyway. Let’s take the broken dish as a sign of good luck.”


    Wenham joined in, “Agreed. I’ll have Sandra clean it up while you get Jaylene toe down and


    receive her present.”


    The mention of gifts made Ste’s ears perk up. She blinked at Trevor as if saying, “We’re getting


    presents?”


    Trevor was somewhat amused. He wondered if Rainee had spoiled her. ‘How could she be so eager


    for mary gifts?’ Sandra cleaned up the broken porcin pieces, and Jaylene came downstairs.


    She had changed into a light yellow dress, her hair loosely braided. Her light makeup gave her a


    somewhat elegant appearance.


    Jaylene greeted Trevor warmly, but her eyes were cold when theynded on Ste. She didn’t ask her


    anything.


    Trevor was unaware of the argument between the two from the night before. He thought their discord


    was due to Keegan and couldn’t help but feel some displeasure toward Jaylene.

    On the other hand, Wenham was happy that his son had returned safely, and they would soon have a


    new addition to the family.


    After receiving their gifts, Jaylene handed hers to Trevor and said, “I’m so d you’re safe. Here, I


    want to give you my present. May you have a peaceful and joyful new year.”


    Trevor lowered his gaze, epted it, and said, “Thank you, Jaylene.”


    Jaylene breathed a sigh of relief, thinking the rtionship between the two might have been repaired.


    But Trevor immediately turned and handed the present she gave him and his own to Ste.


    “Hold onto these for me, sis.”


    In an instant, Jaylene’s face turned unsightly.


    Witnessing how easily Trevor handed their gifts to Ste, Jaylene clenched her fists and remained


    silent.


    Ste raised her eyebrows, happily agreeing to hold onto the items for Trevor.


    Darcie stood nearby and watched the exchange with an inquisitive look, asionally ncing between


    the two.


    Ste pursed her lips and said, “Trevor, can you help me move the pot of roses from the yard to my


    room. Spring ising, and the weather will be warmer. I want to try to keep the flowers alive. Dad


    seems to really like that pot of roses.” As soon as she finished speaking, Jaylene objected, “No, you


    can’t bring it in.


    My mom is allergic to roses.”


    Ste was surprised, “Darcie, you’re allergic to roses?”


    Darcie nodded.


    Ste muttered in confusion, “That’s odd. I’ve been using rose essential oil recently. If you’re allergic to


    roses, wouldn’t you react to rose-extracted essential oil too?”


    Stunned, Wenham looked at Darcie subconsciously.


    Darcie seemed calm, but Jaylene’s face turned sour. “What are you implying?


    Are you saying my mom’s faking an allergy to roses just to keep Dad from bringing flowers home?”


    Ste, astonished, quickly rified, “Why would you think that, Jaylene? I was just curious. Allergies


    aren’t like asthma, right? They can’t just be faked, can they?”
