After a long time, Kevin waves his hand and says, “All right, you go out first.”
Butler slightly frowns, says nothing, nods and walks out.
When she is at the door, she puts her hand on the doorknob and says, “Get dressed quickly and come down to dinner, Dad... everyone is waiting downstairs.”
That word “Dad” has been heard by Kevin, he frowns lightly, but he says nothing and nods, meaning that he understands.
Butler stands in situ and did not move, as if thinking something, she then says, “I heard you dad and mom talking about Macie’s school, later they will talk about it with you.”
Kevin does not know why Butler tells him this, but nods. “Ok, thanks.”
He is polite but alienated, such an attitude makes Butler dissatisfied, but because of her present identity, she says nothing.
Finally, Butler nods, opens the door and walks out.
Kevin walks to the wardrobe and takes out a suit.
It is a pure black suit with a white shirt inside. The dark red tie shows his temperament.
Kevin looks at himself in the mirror, and walks downstairs after a moment of hesitation.
The clothes in the wardrobe have been put together by Sunny before. He did not need to wear a suit and tie when he was in hospital, so the clothes inside were naturally untouched.
In addition, he has just been discharged from hospital for a short time, and he does not need to go to the company. He wears home clothes at home, so the clothes in the wardrobe are still matched for him before Sunny leaves.
Now he already does not know who Sunny is.
Through the long corridor, Kevin comes to the head of the stairs.
The little girl's clear laughter passed into his ears. He was depressed because the picture is lost, but now he feels better suddenly.
With a smile on his lips, he walks slowly downstairs.
“Daddy!”
Macie, who was sitting on Old Lady Quinn's lap, hears the noise at the top of the stairs and looks over.
Kevin is slowly coming downstairs and then walking towards her.
She excitedly gets down from Old Lady Quinn, and then trots to Kevin.
“Macie, Macie, slow down!
Old Lady Quinn's concerned words come from behind. But Macie turns a deaf ear to them. She runs straight to Kevin and takes his hand.
Kevin stiffs and is stunned, as if he does not expect her to do so.
“Daddy, come quickly! We are waiting for you!” Macie, holding Kevin’s hand, says excitedly.
Holding Daddy's hand, it is like back to the time before Daddy was sick.
But...
At that time, Dad usually carried her.
“Macie, come and sit down.” Butler breaks the strange atmosphere between Kevin and Macie.
Macie looks at Butler and raises her eyebrows with a slight disdain in her eyes.
She looks similar to Sunny, but with domineering and commanding attitude of Kevin.
Butler is in dissatisfaction, but there are many people here, she cannot say anything.
Turning a deaf ear to Butler's words, Macie takes Kevin by the hand and follows him to the other end of the table.
No matter where her original position is, she directly sits next to Kevin.
Seats at the table of the Quinn family are arranged according to the status.
On the top are Old Lady Quinn and Wade. On the left are Ellison and Kelly, as well as their future children.
On the right are Kevin , his wife and Macie.
However, Macie now sits directly on the right of Kevin , that is, the position of Kevin’s wife, leaving Macie's original seat vacant.
It makes Butler embarrassed.
If she sits down, it is not right. She is now the fiancee of Kevin, how can she sit in the position of Kevin’s child?
In that way, she admits that her status is inferior to Macie?
But if she does not sit down...
How should she say this to Macie?
Macie is the treasure of all the people in the Quinn family. If she makes it difficult to Macie, it is like suicidal to her!
Thinking over and over, Butler has an idea.
However, Macie raises her chin and looks at Butler who is sitting on the ground from a commanding position. Her demeanor was a bit more of a king's temperament.
Macie caught a cold recently. However, as she loves milk very much and she has to drink milk for breakfast every day, so the servant makes her a glass of milk with boiling water.
The breakfast does not last for long, and it is August, so the hot milk does not cool down.
That this glass of boiling hot milk directly poured on the face of Butler will not make her disfigured, but it still burns Butler's face.
Butler is a cunning person. Since she gets poured with milk and sits on the ground destructively, she cries covering her face.
She doesn’t cry loudly, but sobs in a low voice, showing an obviously wronged face. She endures it for fear that others will be involved.
Macie rolls her eyes, looks at sobbing Butler and sneers, “Why are you crying? Aren’t you my father's fiancee and my future stepmother?”
The contempt in her words is undisguised, and her manner is even more determined -- she is only a lateccomer, and why is she pretending? Does she think she is really Mrs. Quinn?
“I just accidentally spilled a glass of milk on you!” Macie slams the glass in her hand to the ground.
The glass screeches as it hits the floor, and it breaks into fragments on the floor.
She sits in a chair, shaking her legs. Looking at Butler, she says, “You are crying like this, people will think you have been disfigured!”
“Macie! Enough!”
As Macie has barely finished her words, an angry growl of the man comes to her ears.
Macie looks towards him in surprise and finds there is anger in the man’s eyes. His handsome face without expression became cold at this moment.
He looks at Macie with warning.
It seems that as long as Macie says another disrespectful word to Butler, he will teach Macie a lesson with family law.
All the people at the table look toward the source of the voice in shock after hearing that angry growl.
The man's angry eyes and the coldness in his face shock all the people present.
Kevin is angry!
Because of Butler, he is angry to Macie he spoils!
Macie is even more surprised.
She stares at Kevin who is in rage with wide eyes in disbelief.
