Soon, Evelyn came up with a âdiagnosisâ.
She tilted her head and thought hard about how her mother took care of her whenever she was sick.
Then, she ran downstairs to give orders to the servants.
Soon, she returned followed by a servant holding a tray of food.
Evelyn was walking in front of the servant, looking like a well-seasoned hostess.
The servant set down the tray of food on the bedside and said with a smile, âMrs.
Douglas, Evelyn is really good at taking care of people.
She said that you werenât feeling well and asked me to send lunch to your room.
Iâm sure she mustâve learned this from her father.
â
The servant was experienced and could guess the reason why Alexis had gotten up so late.
But of course, the servant wouldnât dare to talk about it in front of the child.
Alexis felt so ashamed that her cheeks turned bright red.
Seeing this, the sensible servant excused herself after setting down the tray.
When the two girls were alone in the bedroom, Alexis looked at Evelyn.
Evelyn and Ollie were lying prone on the edge of the bed.
Evelyn was resting her face on her hands, looking at Alexis expectantly, as though she was waiting to be praised.
Alexis couldnât help but giggle.
She touched Evelynâs soft hair and said, âYouâre such a good little girl.
Mommyâs feeling a lot better.
Thank you, sweetie.
â
Evelyn suddenly felt a Little shy.
Blushing, she retreated to the parlor outside and busied herself with the building blocks; Ollie obediently followed her there.
Looking at this warm scene, Alexis felt soft.
Combined with the scent of roses, she had no reason to be in a bad mood.
In order not to disappoint the child, Alexis sat up in bed and ate.
Only when she took her first bite did she realize how hungry she was.
Thinking of Leonelâs insistence on making out so early in the morning, Alexis was a little annoyed.
Just then, her phone rang, interrupting her thoughts.
Speak of the devil! It was Leonel calling.
After a momentâs hesitation, Alexis answered the phone.
Leonel shouldâve just gotten off the plane.
He asked in a hoarse voice, âUp already?â
Alexis didnât ask him how he knew.
After all, the servants here were kind of like his spies.
âYeah,â she replied, making it a point to say it in a lighthearted tone.
But Leonel knew his woman well.
Seeing right through her, he smiled gently and said, âRest well.
Iâll be back in a few days.
â
After exchanging a few more words, Alexis hung up the phone.
ALL of a sudden, she noticed a warm sensation trickling down her legs, so she quickly stood up.
