Chapter 249: Chapter 249

The warm light outside the window seeped into the room, illuminating the soft, thick carpet.

Eva Nightingale instinctively wriggled, feeling her little hand grasp something hard—bang-bang!

What kind of thing is this!

Without opening her eyes, she reached out and poked the hard object.

Lucas Knight’s face turned dark! He was already feeling uncomfortable, and she kept rubbing against him, igniting a pile of anger!

Eva squeezed the thing again, feeling like she was touching a wall of flesh, warm and cozy.

She opened her eyes and found herself lying in a man’s arms!

His body was so hot, like a big furnace.

His steady breath sprayed on her forehead, making her dare not move, fearing she would wake the man!

However, the man was already awake, his big hand clasped on her small waist, and he spoke: "Olivia."

"Mm~" Eva responded, then gently moved his hand aside and sat up, "Honey, I have to get up."

Today is her mom’s memorial day, she goes there every year.

For these past two years, she’s been going alone.

Because her uncle hasn’t been around, she goes by herself and stays there all day before coming back.

Lucas Knight headed to the conference hall.

Eva, meanwhile, dressed up, took some flowers, and went to the cemetery by car.

The sky began to drizzle lightly.

Eva, holding her long skirt, got into the car, ready to return.

On the way, Harry North politely asked, "Miss! Are you going back to Villa No. 8, or to the Presidential Mansion?"

Villa No. 8 was where Eva lived before, but due to many things happening lately, she has been staying with Lucas Knight.

This question from Harry made Eva feel a bit sour inside.

Because, previously not knowing Lucas Knight’s identity, she thought he was just a typical second-generation army or wealthy child...who would have thought he’d be a person of such high status!

Earlier, he willingly stayed with her at Villa No. 8, an ordinary small villa...now with his status as the President, handling endless official duties daily.

Eva doesn’t want to trouble him.

Moreover, she needs to reclaim the Nightingale Family shares during this period!

It’s time to go back and live at Villa No. 8.

"Harry, let’s go back to Villa No. 8!"

"Yes." Harry responded.

By the time she returned to the villa, it was already evening, the sky glowing with a lovely sunset.

This villa, the entrance was filled with jasmine flowers, along with many forget-me-nots and baby’s breath...

"Miss Nightingale! I’ve arranged for Aunt Fang to come here, she’ll be taking care of you from now on!"

"Thank you." Eva replied politely.

Actually, she’s gotten used to living here, and it’s not bad at all, this location is surrounded by mountains and sea, next door is the Sovereign Capital’s most elite private aristocratic academy, emitting a youthful atmosphere everywhere.

Eva would often sneak into the university campus to have fun when she’s free.

"Miss, you’re back! I’ve made some porridge!" Aunt Fang had been waiting in the villa, kindly saying, "Did you tire yourself out today?"

Aunt Fang was growing more fond of Eva.

Being able to take care of her is such a wonderful thing!

"Aunt Fang, I’ve been feeling a bit unwell lately."

Eva just remembered, her period hadn’t come yet! Calculating the days, it’s already quite delayed.

Could it be, she’s experiencing endocrine disorders? It’s severe this time!

No way, she needs to go to the hospital for a check-up tomorrow!

"My period hasn’t come yet, is there any problem, Aunt Fang?"

"..." This question. Aunt Fang paused in surprise! If she’s pregnant, her period definitely won’t come!
