Chapter 17

Aurora returned to her seat, and Eliza unzipped the baby bag and took out the milk bottle, dripping a drop of the milk on her left knuckle to test the temperature of the milk. When she feels that the temperature of the milk is suitable for her baby to drink, she feeds the baby by helping to hold the milk bottle so that it does not fall.

The baby feeds greedily because of hunger. Eliza kept a close eye on her as she sucked the powdered milk she had brewed in a bottle, fearful that the baby would choke if she looked away.

Aurora, on the other hand, observes her surroundings with a smile and curiosity.In her eyes, the situation in the villa is still the same and she likes it very much. When she saw one of the pictures of her mother with her, she pointed it out with her finger to the mom who was seated next to her.

"Mommy, look at that picture of mom." she said, pointing a finger at the photo. She stood there while holding mommy's shoulder. "Yes, honey, that's a picture of mom with Aurora." Eliza replied gently, while smiling at her daughter's behavior.

"Where's mom, mommy I can't wait to meet Mom. " Aurora asked again in an indulgent tone.

The maid who overhears Aurora asking about her mother replies, "Ms. Aurora, your mother is still in the office upstairs. A maid called her to come downstairs." Aurora, who heard the maid's explanation, smiled happily, and her mother would definitely come down shortly to be with them.

Not long after, the maid who informed Averill of their arrival arrived in a hurry and bowed respectfully in front of the guests. Eliza, who saw her behavior, did not gently pull her hand so that she would not bow as a sign of respect to her. She does not like to be respected as if she is worshiped. When they are fellow human beings, why should they bow down like that?

When she felt her hand gently pulled by the graceful woman in front of her, she no longer bowed and told the woman sitting in front of her politely.

"Ma'am, you can go to the guest room to shower first, then have dinner while you are waiting for Ms. Alpha to come down. Meanwhile, ma'am, take a shower and take the kids to the guest room. "Eliza, who heard the maid's words, smiled and then got up to follow the maid to the guest room. The guest room is next to the master bedroom, which is her and Averill's bedroom. The maid opened the guest room door and invited them in, then went back downstairs to give instructions to the other maids.

"Ms. Alpha asked us to prepare food and hot drinks, send dry and clean clothes to the guest room, and go and tell the driver to buy the most expensive and good milk to share and mix milk for the baby. Make sure they are comfortable here. This is the order of Ms. Alpha. " After listening to Ms. Alpha's instructions given by the housekeeper, they started working.

…

In Aurora's guest room, Eliza and her baby bathe together. She made sure the water in the tub was warm and suitable for them to bathe in. Aurora, who was very excited, went straight into the bathtub after mommy allowed her in. Seeing Aurora, who was so excited to bathe in the tub, then advised her. "Be careful, baby, you'll fall." Her advice while pointing her finger was actually Aurora's hand that started to enter the bathtub. She was still holding Avery and started to bathe Avery when she saw that Aurora was already in the bathtub. After bathing Avery, Aurora was also ready to shower. She took her two children to the guest room and put the clothes of her two children in the luggage that had been brought by the maids earlier.

Aurora took the clothes that mommy placed on the bed. She uses one set of white nightgowns. It is very suitable for her to use because of her fluffy, soft skin. The pyjamas are quite loose when worn. She doesn't need mommy's help to dress her. Even so, for Avery, who is still young, Eliza helps her to use a rather thick baby nightgown and is afraid that her baby will get cold at night. She rubbed baby powder and baby lotion on her baby's body slowly while watching Aurora, who was wearing her nightgown. The baby, who was smeared with lotion and baby powder, laughed spoiled because she felt her body being tickled. Seeing her baby laughing, she bowed down and kissed her baby. Avery smells so good. After taking care of the baby and Aurora, now it's her turn to take a shower.

Aurora, please look after your sister because mommy wants to take a quick shower, she explained to Aurora, and Aurora nodded in understanding. She continued to take the towel to the bathroom and closed the bathroom door slowly.

Aurora was the only one playing with her sister at that time. Aurora tickled her sister, who was lying on the soft mattress. Avery laughed happily as her fingers saw Aurora's long hair continue to grip and pull. Aurora screamed in pain, but her little sister didn't intend to lose the grips. Avery wants revenge because Aurora teased her by tickling her belly. Suddenly, there was a soft knock on the door, but they both didn't hear the knock and Aurora was still trying to open her sister's little fingers that were gripping her hair. The war between the eldest sister and the younger sister started soon. Eliza, who was taking a shower, did not know about the war that would break out between her two daughters.

…

Averill, who was ready to go downstairs, took a slow breath and her tears fell slowly. She wiped her tears with the end of her nightgown. Averill felt happy in her heart and went down the stairs, and every step he took felt like a thousand miles away. But when she reached the ground floor, she saw no one in the living room.

"Where are they? Did they leave because they thought I was not enlightened or accepting of them? " She started to feel worried and started running to find where Eliza and her son went.

Coincidentally, the maid who told her earlier about the guests who came passed her and looked back from the direction of the guest room. As she got closer, Averill pulled her hand away and asked in a voice that sounded almost tearful and worried.

"Where was our guest? "Are they back?" she asked the question to the maid. The maid who saw Ms. Alpha was upset and continued to explain to Ms. Alpha politely.

"Ms. Alpha, your guests and children."

The words spoken by the maid were not finished and were intercepted by Ms. Alpha.

"The children?" His brow furrowed when he asked the maid.

The maid started to feel scared. She was afraid that Ms. Alpha would get angry, even though she had never seen Ms. Alpha scold the workers at the villa.

She answered with a polite voice and tried to be brave.

"Yes, Ms. Alpha. That one child looks cute. Her eyes are blue like Ms. Alpha's eyes. She is about 7 years old and also has a 6-year-old baby.

Hearing the maid's explanation, Averill was stunned for a moment. She just remembered Eliza, who was more than a week old at the time.

She was afraid that Eliza, a.k.a. Jenny has other children besides Aurora and the baby. She has never met, hugged, or met with her second daughter.

She said to the maid, "Have you done what I asked for?"

"Yes. "I have already sent dry and clean clothes to the guest room, the other maids are preparing dinner for the guests, and I also asked the driver to buy the most expensive milk for the baby as instructed by Ms. Alpha," said the maid.

"Are there enough necessities provided in the bathroom in the guest room?" He asked again because he didn't want his children and wife to not have enough needs.

"Yes, Ms. Alpha "I checked the bathroom requirements before they used the bathroom," she told Ms. Alpha about the preparation in the bathroom in the guest room.

"Good. I went to the guest room, and when dinner is ready, please go to the guest room. Averill's instructs the maid to go to the guest room upstairs. The guest room is not only next to the master bedroom, which was her and Eliza's bedroom before.

While on the way she thought when she did not see the figures of her wife and children, she felt that they had gone back to that place because they did not see her coming down to accompany them.

She doesn't want her wife to feel that she doesn't love her like she used to. It's not possible for her to get bored with her wife as easily as she thought. Only she knows what really happened to her wife. Uncle Zhang also knows about this and is a clever man at twisting the situation. She explained it to both of her mothers, and at first they didn't believe her, but after seeing the evidence she showed them, they knew.

Eliza and Aurora's driver still believes that Eliza and Aurora are really dead. She did not explain it to Uncle Zhan because the murder case was not yet completed. Let the 'death' of her wife and children be a mystery to everyone.

Arriving at the door of the guest room, she heard the voice of a child screaming in pain, which could be heard faintly because the room was soundproofed quite well.

That might be Aurora's voice, she whispers in her heart and knocks on the guest room door.

"Knock... knock... knock"

When the knocking was ignored by the people in the room, she assumed that they did not hear the knocking on the door. She then slowly pushed the door of the guest room and looked inside. She saw the luggage and necessary items were arranged by the bed. It is because she was engrossed in looking at the arranged items that she clearly heard the voice of the child who was screaming in pain. She turned her gaze towards the source of the voice. How painful her heart was mixed with longing to see a child with black hair that reached her shoulders, wearing a white, fluffy and cute pyjama shirt. The child's back is facing her. She saw the struggle between Aurora and the baby lying on the bed. The baby looks plump and cute. Her little fingers gripped her sister's hair.

When he heard Aurora screaming in pain, he started walking towards the bed. He didn't see a glimpse of Eliza in the room, but there was a sound of water in the bathroom.

"She's still taking a shower," her heart whispered. Aurora was unaware of her presence, but the baby saw and recognised her.She finally let go of the fingers that were gripping Aurora's hair just now.

The baby looked happy and pointed at Averill, who was standing at the end of the bed.

"Yayayayaya," she said as her little feet kicked forward.

Aurora, who was aware that her hair had been released by her sister, was surprised to see her sister talking to someone.

She was stroking her hair with her fingers and stroking her sore scalp as a result of being pulled by the miscreant. She started to turn back slowly. After turning, she saw a woman standing behind her looking at her and her sister, who was still speaking in her baby language while clapping her hands. Her eyes widened, and she finally jumped up, saying "mom!" and hugging her mother as hard as she could.

Averill was moved when she noticed her youngest daughter speaking in baby language as if she were asking her a question, clapping her hands, asking for a hug, and realising her presence there. This is their first meeting.
