Chapter 268
Lila glanced at Amelia and shook her head.
This kid was really something.
She was a proper heiress, but instead of living comfortably, she came to the set to endure hardships.
Lila helped open the food and pushed it toward the three of them. “Go ahead and eat.”
Kieran placed everything down and handed Lila some utensils. “You should eat more too. You’ve lost weight recently.”
The other three who were eating happily suddenly looked up, their cheeks puffed out.
They stared at Lila blankly.
They had been together every minute and hadn’t noticed that Lila had lost weight.
After Kieran’s reminder, they looked more carefully and indeed noticed that Lila had slimmed down a little.
The three of them set down their utensils and waited for Lila to eat first.
She had just finished the piece of meat Kieran had given her. When she looked up and saw them all staring at her, she was confused.
“Have you all had enough?”
This was strange. None of them were light eaters. Although they controlled their weight and didn’t overeat, they wouldn’t just have only two bites.
Kieran glanced at them. “Eat. If it’s not enough, I’ll go buy more.”
The three of them were dumbfounded. Who could believe it? The dignified
president of the Morgan Group was delivering food to them.
But once Kieran said that, the three of them exchanged a look, hesitated for only
a second, and then buried their heads in their food.
They tacitly avoided touching the dishes that Lila loved to eat.
After finishing the meal, the three of them quickly cleaned up the leftovers and left so that the two of them could talk.
Amelia turned back to look at Kieran. Their eyes met, and she didn’t know what came over her. With a sudden impulse, she clenched her fist and gave him an encouraging gesture.
Kieran was left speechless.
Lila watched her hurry away, trying hard not to laugh.
Kieran had a faint smile in his eyes as he followed Amelia’s retreating figure.
His gaze softened unconsciously. Lila had made real friends who treated her with genuine care.
When they had gone far enough, Lila withdrew her gaze. “Uncle Kieran, you drank last night. Why are you here today?”
“I had nothing to do this afternoon, so I came to see you.”
His voice was gentle. If Cole had heard that, he would have jumped up in shock.
There were two important meetings in the afternoon, both of which Kieran had directly canceled.
They involved the CEOs of three or four companies, and Cole had to muster the courage to inform them all.
“What about the wedding house I mentioned last night? Is there anything you like? I’ve already asked someone to prepare it in advance.”
Kieran’s words were like a thunderclap, striking suddenly.
Lila’s eyes widened, and he chuckled. “Although it’s a wedding house, it’s definitely too soon to move in.
“We can renovate it according to your preferences, and have
someone deal with the smells al net
who
be able to move in around the New Year.”
He spoke casually, but Lila’s heart skipped a beat. It took her a while to process what he said.
She quickly suppressed her emotions, trying to keep her expression neutral.
“Wedding. wedding house?” She hesitated initially but forced herself to say, “We don’t need to buy a new one. Evergreen Heights is fine, the location is good, and it’s not far from the company.”
Her gaze lowered. She thought it would be fine to stay in the same place.
If they really prepared a new wedding house, it might feel like getting an unnecessary attachment.
Kieran and her…
Lila didn’t dare think too much about it. She paused briefly, her tone
becoming firmer. “Let’s stay
there.”
Evergreen Heights, meat
really good
Kieran looked at her and patted her head. “Alright, we’ll stay there. Would you like
me to transfer it to your name?
“What about the honeymoon after the wedding? Where would you like to go?” Another question which hit Lila hard.
