Chapter 151: Chapter 151

Elena didn’t want to disturb their married life.

Vivienne and Damien were newly married, and it was only been a few months.

Vivienne knew what Elena meant, and said, “Mom, you see, Damien and I are so busy. Eve will not be taken care of at home in the future. She will also need someone to pick her up from school, but we must not be on time. Mom, I need you.”

Elena heard this, and she glanced at Eve and asked Vivienne, “What do you mean? Eve will live with you from now on?”

Both Vivienne and Damien were still young, and they would have their own children in the future. How stressful it was to raise someone else’s child.

In front of Eve, Vivienne didn’t continue to talk about this topic, and gave Eve something to eat, “Eve, eat more.”

Eve was a sensitive child. So She heard what Elena said just now and realized that she was a burden.

Eve didn’t speak and ate obediently.

After eating, she took the initiative to collect the dishes and wash them, so sensible that it made people feel distressed.

Vivienne wouldn’t let her do this, “Eve, go to the living room and watch TV, I’ll do it.”

Eve let go, went to the living room obediently, and watched TV obediently.

Elena also saw everything in her eyes, went into the kitchen together with the remaining bowls, and asked in a low voice, “Vivienne, what are you going to do with that child?”

“I’ve discussed it with Damien. If Eve’s parents agree, we will adopt her.” Vivienne said with a smile, “Damien has no parents, and we all need to work, so I need you to help us drive her to and from school.”

“It’s not a problem, but the problem is that it’s someone else’s child. It’s okay for you to keep her at home for a day or two. But she is a kid, a real kid. Have you ever thought about how much it costs to raise a child?”

Elena persuaded, “You and Damien will have your own children in the future. Have you ever settled the bill? This is not about keeping pets, just give them some food. This is a child, and education is also required. Besides, she has parents, I don’t agree with your adoption.”

Every problem Elena considered was very realistic, and it was also for Vivienne and the others.

Vivienne looked at Eve who was quietly watching TV in the living room, and said, “Eve’s parents may not be her biological parents. Eve should have been adopted by them. That couple has their own child and they often beat Eve. Look at her. His whole body is covered in injuries, she is over four years old, and she hasn’t gone to school yet. If we send her back, her life will be ruined.”

“Then you can find CPS, find an orphanage, there are many ways to solve this child’s difficulties, why do you have to adopt her.” Elena said sincerely, “Eve is a lovely child, and she is also very pitiful, but we have to rely on the facts. What will you do if you have your own children in the future? Have you calculated the annual tuition fee for a child?”

Elena sent away Vivienne’s biological daughter back then because she didn’t want to delay Vivienne’s happiness.

Now Vivienne wanted to adopt a strange child, and Elena would definitely not agree.

Elena’s words made Vivienne not know how to refute.

“Mom, it’s not as serious as you think…”

“It’s not easy for Damien to make money. He leaves early and returns late. This is Washington DC, and the consumption level is high. When you are pregnant, you can’t go to work. The pressure will all fall on Damien.“”

Elena poked Vivienne’s forehead with her hand, “You silly girl, you just have a soft heart. Listen to me, you can’t adopt her. You can help Eve find a better family, that’s fine. You don’t need to adopt her.”

Vivienne knew that she couldn’t reach an agreement with Elena now, so she said, “Okay, Mom, let’s not talk about this issue for now.”

“Don’t change the subject. By the way, Lily has never had a child. Later, I will ask Lily if she would like to adopt her.”

Vivienne quickly said, “Mom, what are you thinking, Lily’s temperament is not suitable for raising children.”

Elena said, “Lily is better off financially than you, but she can’t have children. Let her adopt Eve, isn’t that the best for both of you? You can still see Eve often in the future.”

“Mom…”

Before Vivienne finished speaking, she suddenly heard Eve’s voice behind her.

“Auntie, it’s raining outside.”

Only then did Vivienne remember that something was drying outside, “Mom, wash the dishes, and I’ll collect them?”

Vivienne gave Elena hints, telling Elena not to say anything nonsense in front of the child, because Eve was too sensitive, and it was easy to hurt her self–esteem.
