Every day when Stella called her to eat, she only took two bites of food, and then went back to her room, burying
her head under the blanket, trying to isolate herself from the world.
Just as she was silently shedding tears, a childish voice came: "Aunt Elaine, are you asleep already."
Elaine sniffed, wiped the tears from her face and poked her head out, speaking in a nasal voice: "Not yet, what's
wrong?"
Noah placed the milk on her bed and spoke in a milky voice, "Mommy said you didn't eat at night and would be
hungry, so she asked me to bring you milk."
Elaine looked at the little guy in front of her, he had grown quite a bit since we last saw him, and his features were
becoming more and more like Clarence's.
His large eyes are extremely beautiful and resemble Stella.
She sat up slightly, leaned over the bed, and reached out to rub his head, "Thank you."
With that, she lowered her eyes again and said, "I'm sorry for worrying your father and mother."
Without forgetting his mission, Noah retook the warm milk in both hands and handed it to her on tiptoe.
Elaine couldn't refuse such a cute little guy, so she took the cup and reluctantly finished the milk under his eager
gaze.
She had just put down the cup when Noah, as if by magic, took out a cupcake from nowhere: "Aunt Elaine, my mom
made this by hand, the last one, I grabbed it from my dad."
Elaine sniffed and finally couldn't help but show a smile, "Your dad won't beat you up."
Noah said, "I grabbed it and ran away, he couldn't catch me."
So Elaine, with a certain inexplicable pleasure, gladly ate the cupcake.
The fruit is really delicious.
Noah saw her finish eating, picked up the empty glass, and waved bye-bye to her, "Aunt Elaine good night."
Elaine said, "Good night."

Noah exited the room and stomped towards his mother who was waiting a short distance away.
Stella knelt down to catch him, "Baby, did Aunt Elaine eat?"
Noah shook the empty cup in his hand to indicate, "Eaten oh, and finished the milk."
Stella smiled, rubbed his head and picked up the cup, "Good boy, go to bed."
Noah and she pressed their faces together, "Good night mom."
"Good night baby,"
Stella took the cup downstairs to the kitchen and washed it before returning to the room.
In the bedroom, Clarence is standing in front of the floor-to-ceiling window, making a faint phone call.
Stella stood there and listened, waiting for him to finish typing before walking over, "How did it go?"
Clarence threw the phone aside: "Once Franklin died, the James family was in turmoil, and Caesar took advantage
of the opportunity to rise to the top with the James family."
Stella said, "Is it still not settled."
"Caesar is fighting to the death this time, it's not that simple."
Stella thought about it: "I remember you once said that Caesar is not hard to deal with, what is really hard to deal
with is the person behind him."
Saying that, she couldn't help but frown, "Who the hell are those people?"
Clarence's lips hooked down and approached her: "Worrying so much every day, you're not afraid of growing gray
hair."
Stella did not have a good mood to speak: "Do I want to worry about this, you see Elaine just a few days, people are
thin a large circle, and then this continues ......"
Clarence said, "She hasn't had any setbacks since she was a kid, so it's good to teach her a lesson."
Stella was about to say something else when Clarence said, "The kids are asleep?"
She hmmed, "Noah's probably still awake, so I'll go tell him a bedtime story."
Clarence pulled her back, "No, he can coax himself."
Stella: "......"
Clarence pulled her into the bathroom, "Okay, do something serious."
Stella whispered and spat: "You have no decency all day long, what decency ......"
Clarence's fingers gently grazed her lips and whispered, "I'm immodest, where did those three children come from.
Hmm?"
......
Elaine slept through another night, and finally got out of bed the next day.
As she walked to the table and sat down, Noah said, "Good morning Aunt Elaine."
Two little girls sitting on the children's dining chairs, also followed his milk voice vaguely called out: "Aunt Elaine
good ~"
Elaine lifted both eyes, which were swollen into walnuts, and squeezed out a small smile, "Good morning to you
too."
Clarence unhurriedly drank the porridge in front of him, "It's not even dark, what are you doing up."
Stella kept the smile on her face, stepped on Clarence secretly, and then asked Elaine, "Elaine, what do you want to
eat? Porridge or milk?"
Elaine said, "Drinking porridge ......"
Stella turned around, went to get a bowl and spoon, and served a bowl in front of her, "It's a little hot."
Elaine nodded mechanically, then looked around breathlessly, "Isn't Uncle Dolores here?"
Clarence said, "Good, I thought you'd have to wait at least a month to find out she wasn't here."
Elaine: "......"

She first turned her head to look blankly at Clarence, only to realize she had the wrong target, and then at Stella.
Stella fed the two little girls as she said, "She's back in Riverside City."
Elaine subconsciously spoke, "When ......"
Halfway through the sentence, she suddenly reacted and looked at Clarence again, "Was it when you picked me up
in Riverside City that Uncle Dolores went over?"
Clarence was non-committal.
Elaine's mind was now completely spinning, wondering what Uncle Dolores was doing back in Riverside City at this
time.
But she vaguely felt that the whole thing, it seems to have a faint connection.
When Elaine wanted to say something else, Clarence had already gotten up and said to Noah, "Are you done eating
and ready to go?"
Noah immediately stood up and wiped his mouth, grabbed his little school bag and ran after his dad with his legs
while waving at them, "Bye mom, bye Ella, bye Estelle, bye Aunt Elaine, bye Grandpa Bianca~"
After he finished in one breath, Clarence had walked to the door and turned his head to look at him thoughtfully,
"Aren't you tired of talking so much."
Noah's face was sincere: "It was a little tiring today with the extra Aunt Elaine."
Clarence: "......"
"Hard work."
He took Noah's book bag and inclined his head slightly, "Get in."
When they left, Stella finished feeding the two little girls as well and said to Elaine, "Elaine, I'm going to the studio
later, are you going."
Elaine still can't raise any interest: "I'll play with two little girls at home, just not ......"
Stella said, "Sherry's pregnant, are you sure you don't want to check it out?"
