Chapter: 3194
Evelyn announced, “I've already had lunch, Mommy. Daddy called and said that you slept late and that I shouldn't try to wake you up.”
Evelyn didn't understand what her father meant, so she just looked at Alexis with concern.
"Mommy, are you sick?"
Feeling embarrassed, Alexis coughed and mumbled, "I think I've caught a cold."
Without hesitation, Evelyn ran to her toy basket to fetch her toy stethoscope.
Pressing one end of the toy stethoscope against Alexis' heart, the little girl pursed her lips grimly. Alexis was quite amused, but at the same time, she felt touched by her daughter's concern.
Soon, Evelyn came up with a “diagnosis”.
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, "Mrs. Douglas, Evelyn is really good at taking care of people. She said that you weren't feeling well and asked me to send lunch to your room. I'm sure she must've learned this from her father."
The servant was experienced and could guess the reason why Alexis had gotten up so late.
But of course, the servant wouldn't 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 couldn't help but giggle.
She touched Evelyn's soft hair and said, “You're such a good little girl. Mommy's feeling a lot better. Thank you, sweetie.”
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.
