Chapter 1040 Nina peered at the frail old woman outside the window, hesitating for a moment before nodding, âAs long as you donât force me to go with you like you did before, Iâll let you see.â
Upon hearing this, Evelynâs eyes immediately filled with tears, âGirl, donât worry, I wonât be so impulsive again in the future.
After acknowledging with a hum, Nina turned around to grab the snacks she had secretly stashed in the back seat storage compartment Eleanor noticed and lightly patted her bottom âNina,â she said, her tone a tad reprimanding, yet her voice gentle, Tve told you many times, these snacks are unhealthy. Theyâll ruin your teeth. Why donât you listen?â
Hearing this, Evelyn was reminded of Ethan when he was young She seemed to have never spoken to him in such a tender tone.
Thinking of this, Evelynâs gaze landed on Eleanor again, âIf she keeps disobeying, why donât you just take away her snacks and throw them away?â
After stopping Nina, Eleanor turned to look at the people outside the window, âWhen I was in the orphanage, I had a weak heart and was too frail, slow at eating and walking But the carer who looked after me never lost her temper at me, she was always patient. Perhaps thatâs why I never lose my temper with childrenâ
Evelyn gradually felt relieved, âWith your temperament, Eleanor, Nina will definitely grow up to be a good girlâ
Eleanor smiled without saying a word. Evelyn continued, âMs. Shultz, could I entrust her with the affairs of the Hooper and Ziegler families?â
Eleanor disagreed with burdening such a young child with a family mission, âLetâs talk about it when she grows up.â
Evelyn clarified. âThatâs what I meant, when she grows up.â
Eleanor responded, âWell, you can ask Nina herself then.â
She wouldnât make any life choices for the child, everything would be left to her.

Bernard in the front seat was getting impatient and shot her a glance Eleanor stopped talking to Evelyn âitâs getting late, Iâm taking the kid home nowâ
Evelyn responded with an âokay, then seemed to remember something and said somewhat awkwardly, âAbout your mother. Iâm... Iâm really sorryâ
Vanya Pine had been her best friend since childhood, but she had let herself be provoked by a few words from Wendy Pine and ended up disfiguring her face This incident has always made Evelyn feel guilty. Until she found out that Emilia was Vanyaâs daughter, she didnât dare to face Emilia, let alone let her into her house...
She felt guilty towards all the Pines. If it wasnât for her, Emilia marrying Ethan wouldâve been a perfect match, and Eleanor wouldnât have ended up in an orphanage. In the end, it was her own fault that God took her sonâs life....
Eleanor had come to understand that it was Wendy who had accidentally bumped into Evelynâs hand, causing Evelynâs potion to inadvertently splash onto Vanyaâs face. Therefore, her resentment towards Evelyn wasnât as profound as before. Yet, she still found herself unable to say âitâs alrightâ on behalf of her mother. All she could do was nod at Evelyn, indicating that she accepted the apology.
Evelyn too understood that the other party wouldnât forgive her easily. Had it not been for Nina, she might not have had another word to exchange with her. Luckily, with Nina around, it gave her an opportunity to further apologize to the only daughter of Vanya. This, in turn, alleviated some of the guilt she harbored towards Vanya in her heart.
