Everleigh was slightly stunned. "Wait, she's not married yet?"
"You don't know?" Christopher asked in return.
She shook her head. How would she know? In the past, she didn't even know that the Jenkins family had a daughter.
After all, it was their first time meeting each other, so she wouldn't know much about her.
From the expression on her face, he could tell that she knew nothing. He sighed, "Forget it."
It wasn't too late to finally know.
Nevertheless, he had only heard about Missha, but never had a chance to meet her in person.
He would definitely like to meet her if he had the chance.
In the afternoon, Everleigh went to Theodore's company, and brought Alastair and Adrienne along with her.
"Daddy!" Adrienne called out before even entering the room. Theodore immediately knew who it was when he heard the voice. He quickly got up and walked out of the room.
Before he could even open the door, she walked in and hugged his legs. She raised her head and said with a smile, "Daddy, I missed you so much!"
"I missed you too. I bought you some delicious food; they're on the table. Go and eat them."
"Okay." Adrienne's eyes lit up when she heard about the delicious food, so she sped up and began to eat.
Everleigh and Alastair entered and said, "Don't eat too much. You've eaten a lot just now."
"Daddy bought it for me, so I must finish it all, or else he'll feel sad." Adrienne ate greedily, as if she was afraid that they would take the food away from her.
Everleigh was speechless with her answer. What kind of argument was that?
Theodore took out something for Alastair too. It was a walking cane with his favorite panda pattern on it.
"Thank you." Alastair received it calmly, but his eyes were full of joy.
Theodore patted his head. The boy was rather similar to him when he was young.
Everleigh took out the gift, but she didn't take out the rings. Things like that should be bought by the man. She couldn't lose her honor as a woman.
"This crystal..." Theodore picked it up and looked at it carefully. He remembered that he was invited to the auction. He initially planned to join it, but because the company was facing some problems, he decided not to go.
"Missha gave it to me. I asked Alexander to help me make these. Each of us gets one." Everleigh picked up the teacup and took a sip of tea; it tasted good.
When he heard that each of them had one, the corners of his lips curled into a faint smile. Did that mean that they were a family of four?
"Daddy, Alastair and I have one too. Look." As Adrienne spoke, she took out the pendant on her neck. It was a small crystal pendant that was very exquisitely made.
Theodore wasted no time and wore the necklace directly around his neck. He felt that his heart was finally complete.
"Can you bring Alastair and Adrienne over to your place tonight? I have to go back to the Jenkins family home." Everleigh specially went to the office to hand the two kids over to him.
Abraham had a meeting to sign a contract that evening, and Selena was busy with her movie's shooting. Since no one was free, she had no choice but to pass the children to him.
"Why are you going there?"
"Missha is back, so I have to go and visit her. After all, she's my aunt. She doesn't know about the two kids just yet. If she somehow finds out about them, then we'll see what we can do," she responded helplessly.
Theodore nodded. He didn't mind at all. In fact, he was delighted that the two children could stay with him.
Alastair raised his head and asked, "Mommy, is that lady easy to get along with?"
