Wendy didn't notice it. She looked through the menu and struggled to make choices at the beginning of this brand new day.
Gavin did not urge her and waited for her patiently.
Anyway, the deputy manager had left.
Otherwise, once the deputy manager spilled the beans, it would be difficult for him to let his girl continue to be as "passionate" as last night.
"In addition to soup dumplings, I'd like porridge and pastries!" Wendy finally made her choices.
"Okay." Gavin called the waiter over and ordered everything Wendy wanted.
After breakfast, Gavin received a call from Brian and was asked to help deal with some things in Wesley's study.
"No problem." Gavin said, "I'll go there now."
Wendy ate the last piece of pastry, grabbed Gavin's sleeve, and asked, "Where are you going?"
"To help Brian deal with some things. Don't worry, I'll stay at Wesley's house." Gavin picked up his coat and reached out to Wendy. "Let's go."
Wendy held Gavin's hand with concern. "Will you be tired?"
"I just need to turn on the computer to receive some files. It's not physical work. How could I be tired?" After a pause, Gavin continued, "Wendy, this is the only thing I can help Brian and Wesley with."
Because he was sick, Brian and Wesley had banned him from getting involved in many things.
But they were clearly on the busiest days now.
Wendy understood and nodded, and then followed Gavin to Wesley's house.
At the same time, Emily had just finished breakfast. He was pestering Yuna to take him to see the babies next door, and he was even ready to roll on the ground.
Yuna found it funny, so she deliberately asked, "What if I just won't take you there?"
Emily snorted and curled his lips. "Then I'll go myself!"
"Fine." Yuna pointed to the door. "Then you can go by yourself."
Emily pouted, about to cry the next second. He hugged Yuna's leg and slipped down to the ground. "Auntie Yuna..."
Wendy called the little guy, "Emily."
Emily turned his head and saw that it was Wendy. He ran over and said, "Sister Wendy, are you going to see the babies? I want to go too. Let's go together."
Wendy couldn't help laughing. She squatted down to make their eyes be at the same level and teased him with Yuna's trick.
Emily was really about to cry.
Gavin walked up to Yuna and said, "I want to use Wesley's computer."
Yuna pointed to the second floor and said, "It's at the study upstairs. You can go there yourself."
Gavin nodded and looked back at Wendy. Seeing that she was having fun with Emily, he didn't say anything more and went straight upstairs.
Right now, Emily was holding Wendy's leg and acting pettish. "Sister Wendy, Sister Wendy..."
Wendy picked up the little guy and pinched his face. "Yuna, let's take him there."
"Okay." Yuna said, "I just have something to tell Joanne."
When the three of them arrived at Joanne's house next door, Aiden and Romy just woke up. Aiden woke up on the wrong side of the bed and was crying in Joanne's arms. He didn't even want to drink the milk beside his mouth.
In contrast, Romy was much more obedient, or rather, she was a foodie in nature. She held the bottle with both hands and kept sucking the milk. After a long time, she opened her mouth and let out a satisfied sigh.
As soon as Romy's sigh ended, Aiden suddenly cried louder.
Hearing the cry, Romy turned her head and happened to see her elder brother. She pursed her lips and was about to cry too.
Joanne caressed Aiden's face. "If you continue crying, your younger sister will cry too."
Aiden hummed and finally stopped crying. He opened his mouth to drink the milk.
Joanne breathed a sigh of relief. She was busy taking care of the two little babies and didn't notice the arrival of Wendy and Yuna at all.
Wendy took a step back and shook her head. "I don't want to have twins!"
Just seeing how Joanne looked now, she felt very tired!
Yuna turned to look at Wendy in surprise. "You and Gavin... plan to have a baby?"
Wendy immediately shook her head. "No, no, no, we don't want a child anymore. I'm still a child!"
Well, she wanted to be a child in love with Gavin forever!
As for giving birth to children... she would talk about it in her next life!
After drinking the milk, the two little babies finally quieted down, lying on the cribs and looking at the ceiling. Only then did Joanne notice Yuna and Wendy. She touched Emily's head and asked, "When did you come?"
Emily said obediently, "When the baby started crying."
Joanne smiled. "The baby just woke up and was in a bad mood, so he cried."
Emily tilted his head, walked up to Romy's crib, and leaned over to touch her face.
Probably because she was familiar with Emily, Romy waved her hands and feet, babbled, and smiled at Emily like a pure angel.
Emily also smiled, and he leaned prone on the crib and said, "I will play with you. Don't cry anymore."
"Yeeh," Romy replied in a childish voice as if she was agreeing to Emily's request.
Wendy was stunned. "Emily actually made our Romy settle down just like that?"
"Go and see if you can make Aiden settle down," Yuna encouraged her.
Wendy itched to have a go and walked over. "I can't lose to Emily, can I?"
A big baby and three little babies were having fun. For some time, the children's room was full of laughter.
Joanne walked to Yuna and asked in a low voice, "Do you have something to tell me?" It was obvious that Yuna wanted to avoid Wendy just now.
Yuna nodded and said, "Let's have a talk downstairs."
Joanne went to the kitchen to squeeze two cups of juice and handed one to Yuna. Then, she sat down and waited for Yuna to speak.
Yuna took a sip of juice and asked, "Joanne, how much do you still remember Rosalyn?"
"A lot." Joanne asked, "What's the matter?"
Yuna was stunned. "I thought you would say that you almost forgot her."
"Indeed, I rarely think of Rosalyn, but it does not weaken the impression of Rosalyn on me." Joanne smiled, "After all, when I secretly had a crush on Brian, everyone was sure that she would become Mrs. Lambert in the future."
This alone was enough to make Joanne unable to forget Rosalyn's name for the rest of her life.
However, like some insignificant memories, Rosalyn's name lay quietly in her memories and had no influence on her current life.
Yuna smiled and said, "Now I know why Rosalyn couldn't be Mrs. Lambert. You're true to yourself, which makes you greatly surpass Rosalyn."
After a pause, Yuna slowly talked about the point. "But, Joanne, be careful. Recently, Rowdy has gotten in touch with Rosalyn, and he is planning to help Rosalyn make a comeback."
Joanne shrugged and said, "The only impact of Rosalyn's comeback on me is that I may occasionally see her news."
"That's not the point." Yuna emphasized, "The point is that she is working together with Rowdy!"
Joanne replied with an "oh" and imitated Brian. "There is no need to be afraid of a disorderly mob."
"..."
How to swear without any vulgar words? One should learn from Joanne!
Yuna choked, but when she thought about Joanne's words carefully, it seemed to make sense.
Rosalyn bore an indelible stain. Even if she had Rowdy as her backer, her comeback would not be easy.
Once Brian and Wesley brought Rowdy down, Rosalyn's only backer would collapse. By then, no matter how talented she was in acting, she could not regain her former glory.
Once, Rosalyn made Joanne despair.
But now, she had no influence on Joanne.
Of course, it was not because Rosalyn was no longer as glorious and beautiful as before.
It was because Joanne was sure that Brian had always only loved her.
That was Joanne's confidence.
Yuna also shrugged and said, "That's all I know. As for what to do, it's up to you."
Joanne thought for a moment and said, "Let's see what Rosalyn will do."
At this critical moment, the only person she could help Brian deal with was Rosalyn. Of course, the premise was that Rosalyn really planned to do something; otherwise, she was not interested in provoking Rosalyn.
At this moment, Emily hopped downstairs. "Auntie Yuna."
Yuna asked in confusion, "Why did you come down?"
"I want to go back for milk." Emily said, "I'm hungry."
"Granny Helen is at home. Go ahead." Yuna took the scarf and helped Emily put it on and then saw the little boy hop away.
She did not know how long she would live, but she knew how many times she could see Emily's back.
Joanne saw that Yuna was absent-minded and called her. Yuna said with a smile, "I bet that Emily will come back."
Joanne was curious. "Why are you so sure?"
Yuna told her that Emily had held her leg in the morning and asked her to take him to see the babies. After that, both of them laughed.
While they were laughing, Emily ran back from the next door.
This time, Emily ran very fast. He hurried into the house and rushed over before he could catch his breath. "Auntie Joanne, Uncle Gavin fainted."
Joanne's mind went blank.
But she reacted quickly and asked Yuna to tell Wendy before grabbing her phone and rushing to the villa next door.
Emily said, "Uncle Gavin is upstairs."
Joanne ran upstairs and pushed open the door of the study. She saw Gavin lying on the carpet with a paler face than the snow outside.
Henry had said what he feared most now was that Gavin would suddenly faint.
Because they didn't know whether Gavin would wake up after he fainted this time.
"Gavin!"
Joanne reached out to feel Gavin's breath. Fortunately, he still had vital signs.
She dialed Brian's number with trembling hands and told him everything.
"Don't panic." Although he comforted Joanne like this, it could be noticed that Brian was just trying to restrain his panic. "There is a medical helicopter on the top of the mountain, and Gavin can be sent back to the hospital in twenty minutes. You watch Gavin, and I will contact the manager right away."
Joanne said in a trembling voice, "Okay."
As soon as she finished speaking, Brian hung up the phone.
For the first time, Joanne felt so helpless.
If Gavin had a wound, she might be able to help treat it.
But Gavin was lying on the ground, unconscious. She could only watch as his vitality gradually disappeared...
