After Her Engagement Annulled, the Weak Rich Daughter Becomes a Big Shot!

Chapter 117  Pampering

"Ling!" Eva pounced on Caroline and knocked her down. If it wasn't for Edwin who supported her, the two of them would have fallen to the ground.

Edwin furrowed his brows. He looked at Eva, who was even taller than Caroline, but was rubbing against Caroline's body like a child. He felt that she was an eyesore, not to mention that she had almost knocked Caroline over.

He reached out to push Eva away, but before he could, a hand reached out and hugged Eva.

Caroline's helpless and heartbroken voice could be heard. "Alright, it's fine now. I said that I'll be back soon. Look, I'm back now."

Eva's childish face was red, and her eyes were filled with tears. "I know you'll never lie to me, but I'm still afraid that those bad people won't let you come back."

Caroline took out her handkerchief and helped her wipe her tears. "If that's the case, I'll definitely find a way to get someone to send you a letter and ask you to come and save me."

Eva clenched her fists. "Yes, I'll definitely beat them up and save you!"

Caroline kept her handkerchief. "So, with Eva around, I'm not afraid or worried at all."

Eva, who was trusted, was elated. She hugged Caroline and spun two rounds. Under Edwin's increasingly gloomy gaze, she finally let go of Caroline. Then, she cheered and pounced on the dessert that Danika had just brought out.

"Wow, this is too delicious!" Eva stuffed a big mouthful into her mouth with satisfaction, then puffed up her cheeks and looked at Danika with satisfaction.

Obviously, Danika was also very happy that her food could be eaten up with a satisfied look. "Isn't it too sweet? Do you need a cup of black tea?"

"It's not sweet, it's just right." Eva shook her head like a doll, and then she put on a small pleading expression. "Then can I eat one more piece?"

"Why are you so calculative with a child?"

Edwin disagreed. "Eva may look like a child, but she's not really a child."

Danika couldn't help but say, "I made an entire cake. You can eat as much as you want."

Caroline shook her head. "Desserts can't be eaten like rice. Otherwise, you won't be able to eat dinner later."

Although Eva was a little greedy, she still listened to Caroline. Thus, when she heard Caroline say that, she quickly covered her mouth and said, "I'll only eat one more piece."

Caroline pointed at her and received an innocent smile from Eva. She felt helpless and amused.

Although Eva's IQ was only at the level of a five-year-old, she was still very smart. You couldn't bear to teach her.

However, Caroline was already used to it, so she only nudged her lightly and did not intend to take it seriously.

Just when Caroline turned around and wanted to ask Edwin if he wanted to stay for dinner, she saw Edwin looking at her with a resentful expression.

Caroline was confused. "What's wrong?" Why did he have such an expression?

Edwin's tone carried a tinge of jealousy that he himself didn't realize. "Although I know Eva's situation is a little special, you're too kind to her. It was much better than mine."

Caroline was stunned for a moment before she realized what he meant. She was a little surprised. "Why are you so calculative with a child?"

Edwin disagreed. "Eva may look like a child, but she's not really a child."

She was a very powerful human-shaped weapon. Not only was she very effective against enemies, but she was also a problem for him.

Caroline was puzzled. "But she's just a child."

"You're only a few years older than her," Edwin reminded her tactfully.

Therefore, there was no need to act as if they were raising a daughter. Even if she was really their biological daughter, there was no need to dote on her to this extent. After all, the Anderson family had never pampered their children. Even George, although they indulged in his actions, had still been treated ruthlessly when it was necessary.

When he thought about children, an image of 'little Caroline' suddenly appeared in his mind. It was a replica of the little girl in his memory, but even younger.

When he thought of her little face and the way she called him 'Dad', Edwin's slightly disdainful heart changed its attitude.

If this was his daughter, he wouldn't mind doting on her a little more.
