Chapter 20
Aimee’s POV
“Is there anything Lundy doesn’t like to eat?” I noticed the difference of the little guy and asked softly.
Lundy shook her head immediately.
Cyrus stopped eating and said, “my brother doesn’t like carrots or green pepper, just like us. He often picked them out in the kindergarten!”
I smiled, “I’ll help you pick it out, okay?”
Lundy smiled again and nodded obediently.
I stood up and walked to him. I picked up the carrot and green pepper in my bowl and watched the little guy pick up the spoon.
After dinner, I stood up to clean up the table.
Penn helped me clean the bowl and chopsticks and stood awkwardly at a loss.
“I can do it myself. Please go out to help look after the children.” I noticed his embarrassment, so I said calmly.
Penn nodded, turned around and went to the living room to help the three kids assemble the Lego.
I was washing the dishes absentmindedly in the kitchen, and my attention was always on the people outside. I even regretted letting Penn stay for so long. I should have let them go back after dinner.
The two kids, Aviva and Cyrus, had said that to Penn last time. Now they are alone with each other. I just feel uneasy.
Especially when I saw them get along well with each other outside.
I’m more afraid that the two kids will say something they shouldn’t say.
If Penn knew that the two kids were his children
I’m not sure if Penn will take them away from me.
The more I think about it, the more terrified I feel.
The bowl in my hand slipped to the ground unconsciously. When I came to my senses, I heard a crisp sound of glass breaking.
“Mommy, what’s wrong?” Aviva and Cyrus rushed into the kitchen and looked at me worriedly.
When I came to my senses and saw the two little fellows in front of me, I felt even more uneasy. I lowered my eyes to barely suppress the emotions in the bottom of my heart, and shook my head with a smile. “Nothing. Mommy accidentally slipped a bowl. Don’t come in. There is broken glass on the ground.”© NôvelDrama.Org - All rights reserved.
After saying that, i squatted down as if nothing had happened, cleaning up the mess on the ground. My mind was still in a mess, and I was even a little absent-minded when picking up the glass.
Out of the corner of my eye, I saw Penn and Lundy standing at the kitchen door. My mind was in a mess.
i pinched a sharp corner of the fragment by accident.
A sharp pain came from my fingertips and my hand was scratched.
After helping me bandage my wound, Penn asked Bill to find a domestic helper, Fiona, to take care of Aviva and Cyrus, for my wound can’t be stained with water. Then he left.
After Fiona packed up, I made an appointment with her to go back. It was not until then that I completely relaxed.
”
After closing the door, I squatted down and seriously looked into the eyes of the two kids. “Mommy has something to discuss with you.”
The two kids looked at me in confusion.
“If Lundy’s father asks you how old you are in the future, you should say that you are one year younger than Lundy, okay?” I’ll talk to the two kids in a soft voice.
“Why?” The two kids looked at me innocently.
I hesitated for a moment and couldn’t think of a good excuse. I sighed helplessly, “there is no reason. You can do as mommy said, okay?”
The two kids looked at each other and nodded slowly.

It was nearly ten o’clock when I took Lundy back.
As soon as I got off the car, I saw the housekeeper waiting at the door.
“Master, Miss Hunter is here. He is waiting in the room.”
I nodded and walked in with Lundy.
“You are back!”
Bonnie was sitting on the sofa. As soon as She saw us, She stood up and walked up to us. She squatted down and wanted to touch Lundy’s head, but Lundy dodged.
“What’s the matter?” I glanced at her and said coldly.
She said with a smile, “thank you for lending us a big favor today. My father asked me to come over and thank you.”
“The problem is solved?”
She nodded with a smile and said, “yes, I’m a little busy, so I’ve been busy until afternoon. I don’t know if I’ve delayed your work.”
I nodded, “there are many people like the Carter Group. They won’t delay their work because of one person. You don’t have to thank them.”
As soon as I finished speaking, I held Lundy’s hand and walked past her.
“Anyway, you have helped me solve a big problem, but I don’t know what you need, so I didn’t buy it for you. I just bought some small toys for Lundy. They are not expensive. Just take them as my gift.”
As she spoke, she took out a limited edition Lego from the bag on the sofa. The packaging was very exquisite. It was a Transformers series, which was obviously the same series as the ones in Lundy’s room.
I know he likes these, so I stopped on purpose to see if he would accept them.
Unexpectedly, Lundy didn’t even raise his eyelids. He grabbed my hand and pressed it close to me.
I got it. I raised my head and refused Bonnie’s gift. “YBut he already has this one. What’s more, he was angry with me just now, so he doesn’t want to talk to anyone now.”
The expression on Bonnie’s face froze slightly. She forced a smile and put the bag away. Then she looked at Lundy with concern and asked, “why do you lose your temper again?””It’s not a big deal.”
Then he looked away.
“Really? Then you came back so late. Did you take him to relax?”
“It’s getting late. Do you have anything else to do? If you don’t have anything else to do, you can go back first. Lundy needs to go to bed.”
Then I ignored her and went upstairs with Lundy.

Aimee’s POV
After breakfast, I sent the two kids to the kindergarten early.
I left the kindergarten and went straight to the Research Institute.
Because of the supply of medicinal materials from the Sharp family, the previous stopped research was on track, and the research progress was finally caught up.
I was busy at the research institute the whole morning. At noon, I received a call from Clayton.
“Aimee, when will you come this afternoon? I’ll wait for you at home.”
It suddenly occurred to me that I had to go to the hospital to treat Felton this afternoon.
I was so busy this morning that I almost forgot such an important thing if it weren’t for Clayton’s call
When I came to my senses, I looked at the rest of the work and said the time.
In the afternoon, I went there early on purpose.
The butler of the Sharp family had already known me. He knew that my treatment had helped old master get better, and he was very friendly to me. He greeted me respectfully all the way.
As soon as I entered the room, I saw the person sitting on the sofa and frowned slightly.
“Nice to meet you again, Miss Miller.”
Bonnie sat on the sofa leisurely. The corners of her mouth lifted slightly, but her eyes were full of coldness.
When I came to my senses, I glanced at her and looked at Clayton who was sitting next to her.
Clayton seemed to have noticed the conflict between me and Bonnie. She walked up to me and blocked Bonnie’s sight.
“Aimee, my grandfather is waiting for you upstairs. Let’s go upstairs now.”
I nodded.
Clayton said goodbye to Bonnie on the sofa and took me upstairs.
As soon as we arrived at the stairway, Bonnie’s voice sounded again. “I heard that under the treatment of Miss Miller, Mr. Sharp’s body is much better. I also want to go up to visit him. I just want to see how he is treated.”
Then he followed us calmly.
I frowned slightly. Seeing that Clayton didn’t say anything, I could only pretend that she didn’t exist
old master had recovered a lot. He moved out of the original room and went back to his bedroom.
When we went upstairs, grandpa was half lying on the head of the bed and looked energetic.
“Grandpa, Aimee is here.” Clayton took me to the bedside.
Hearing this, Felton squinted his eyes and looked at me carefully for a while. With a smile on his face, he said, “Aimee, thank you for your treatment this time. If it weren’t for you, I would have died.”
“You’re welcome. I feel a sense of accomplishment when I see you recover,”诊断完Felton后,我
After I diagnosed the Felton, I sat down next to it, took out the raw materials for making incense and began to make incense.
Felton and Bonnie were chatting.
When I heard their conversation, Felton completely took Bonnie and Penn as a family. Reason told me that their relationship had nothing to do with me, but there was still a strange feeling in my heart.
After the treatment, Erica also came back from outside. When she saw Bonnie, she invited Bonnie to stay for dinner.
Seeing Erica come back, I quickened my pace of cleaning up. I don’t want to have anything to do with them.
Felton looked with a smile. “Aimee, would you like to stay? I can take this opportunity to thank you.”
Hearing this, I paused for a moment. When I was thinking about how to refuse, old master’s voice sounded again. “Call Penn over too. Let’s have a big meal together to celebrate my recovery. I haven’t been so lively for a long time.”
Hearing old master’s words, Clayton immediately agreed and went out to call Penn.
But my heart sank. I put the things into my bag, stood up and said, “since it’s a family dinner, I don’t think it’s appropriate for me to stay. If old master really wants to thank me, I’d better go another day.”
Erica noticed that I didn’t want to stay any longer, she smiled hypocritically and said, “Aimee saved grandpa’s life. It’s my pleasure to invite you to dinner. If you don’t have anything else to do later, you can stay and have dinner with us.”
I frowned and sensed that Erica was up to something.
After the phone call, Clayton heard Erica’s words and said, “Penn will come here later. You have met him last time. He also cares about Grandpa’s recovery. You stay here. If he asks about anything later, someone will explain it to him.”
I couldn’t say anything to refuse him, so I had to nod.
When WE went downstairs, old master asked me if he could get out of bed under his current condition. After getting the permission, he asked Clayton and the housekeeper to support him and go downstairs with us.
I lowered my eyes and pretended to be calm at the table, trying to minimize my sense of existence.
However, Erica, who was standing beside them, seemed to be deliberately provoking some topics from time to time. She asked Bonnie first and then asked me.
In consideration of old master’s presence, I answered her questions.
After a while, the housekeeper greeted, “Mr. Carter.”
Penn replied shortly.
A moment later, the man’s tall figure appeared in front of everyone.
“Mr. Sharp.” Penn said hello to Felton first, and then looked around the table. When he saw me, he paused for a moment.
When I met his gaze, I pinched my palm and calmly nodded to him as a greeting.
“Penn, take a seat. Bonnie has been waiting for you for a long time.”
Erica greeted enthusiastically and gestured for Penn to sit next to Bonnie.
As a result, Penn sat face to face with me. My heart tightened and I lowered my eyes silently.
During the dinner, I just ate quietly. Only when Felton talked to me did i respond in a low voice.
As Bonnie attentively refilled old master’s bowl, she talked to Penn from time to time.
I don’t know what I’m thinking about at all. When I heard their conversation, I felt that they are indeed a family. There is something strange in my heart.
Erica glanced at me and acted coquettishly to Bonnie. “Bonnie and Penn love each other very much. When will you get married? I’m waiting to be the bridesmaid!”
As soon as she finished speaking, I stopped in astonishment.
What did she mean?
