Everleigh shook her head. Forget about it; the Jenkins family wasn't suitable for them. It was better for her to raise them herself.
At the Jenkins family's home, Saniogo and Missha were looking at the front door anxiously until they heard voices outside.
"They're here! They're here!" Saniogo exclaimed happily as he rushed out to welcome them.
Everleigh had been used to that kind of situation. There was no need for them to be so overjoyed whenever they visited.
"Dad, what are you doing?" Alexander was speechless. It wasn't the first time they visited, so his reaction was a little too over the top.
"I want to see the children. It's been a long time since I last saw them," Saniogo replied as he turned his head to look at Alastair and Adrienne.
Alastair was cold as usual, but Adrienne greeted with a smile, "Grand-Uncle!"
"My little darling, you're finally here. Hurry up and come inside. I've prepared a lot of good things for you."
As soon as they walked in, Alastair saw Missha immediately. He had investigated her background in private.
However, he didn't like her from the bottom of his heart.
"Aunt Missha," Everleigh called.
Missha grinned as she glanced at Alastair and Adrienne.
"My little darlings, come here. I've bought you some gifts."
Everleigh lowered her head and said to the children, "This is your grand-aunt."
"Hello, Grand- Aunt!" Adrienne greeted in her childish tone.
"What a sweet girl."
"Nice to meet you, Grand-Aunt." Alastair behaved like a young adult.
Missha caressed his cheeks. "This boy looks like a young adult. Interesting."
"Aunt Missha, he's always been like this." Everleigh knew Alastair's attitude whenever he met someone new, but there was nothing she could do about it. That was just his personality.
Missha shook her head. "It's okay. As long as the child has a good personality, that's all that matters."
She could tell what a child's nature was at first glance.
The two children were obviously well brought up.
She bought them some gifts that they liked. They weren't expensive, but were rather useful.
"Thank you, Grand-Aunt."
"I hope you'll like it."
Adrienne was a lively child, and her sweet words made everyone in the room burst into laughter.
The atmosphere was incredibly harmonious, and Missha liked the two kids very much.
At that moment, Annie came back.
"Annie, you're back, come and have a seat." Missha patted the seat beside her.
Annie smiled faintly and went to sit next to her. She was surprised to see the two kids. "They are..."
"They're mine," Everleigh answered in a deep voice, and no emotion could be detected from her tone.
Annie became even more shocked. "I thought you're still unmarried. I can't believe that your children are already so big now."
Everleigh squeezed out a smile and didn't speak.
She wasn't a fool. She could tell that Annie didn't like her. Although she acted polite, it was clear that she was unhappy with her.
How would she possibly like her children?
Adrienne raised her head and pouted at Annie. "Auntie, aren't you married?"
"Nope, I'm still single," Annie replied with a smile.
"Auntie, you must get married soon, otherwise you won't be able to give birth to babies. Just take our teacher, for example. She can't have babies now even though she wants one." Adrienne was speaking childishly, and her innocent words didn't have any hidden meanings.
