The breakfast was quite peaceful. No one mentioned what happened last night. Besides, no one wanted Joe to know about it, so they chose to avoid talking about it.
Lily didn't care about it at all. It was the matter between Claire and Frank. It had nothing to do with her at all. Last night, only brainless people like Jade would blame her. But she scolding her was a counterattack.
After breakfast, Lily went to the manor. She didn't ask the driver to send her there, but took a taxi.
When they arrived at the manor, they saw the busy Kerr who just came out of the kitchen with a bowl of hot soup in his hand. When he saw Lily, his eyes lit up as if he had seen a savior. "Lily, you're finally here."
Seeing him like this, Lily felt very happy. She suddenly smiled and said, "Uncle Kerr, why do I feel that you are helpless with my mother?"
"I have no choice. Pregnant women are the most important." Kerr looked sad, but his eyes were full of happiness. "I can only be a cook under command. Now that she is awake, hurry up and bring the soup to her."
"Then you are also a happy cook." With a smile, Lily put her bag on the sofa and reached for the bowl in his hand. "Let me bring it to her."
"Be careful not to hurt your hands." Kerr carefully handed the bowl to her and sighed exaggeratedly, "Alas, with a daughter like you coming, I can also breathe a sigh of relief, and by the way, I can take a break."
"Uncle Kerr, I seriously suspect that you asked me to come here. My mother didn't want to eat the food I cooked." Lily joked and went upstairs with the soup.
"Hey, you see through me." Kerr said with a smile and followed her upstairs.
When they went upstairs, Lily turned left as usual, because Tina's room was the first one on the left.
"Lily, on the right." Kerr reminded, "Tina is in my room."
Lily was stunned for a moment and then realized what had happened at once. She turned right and looked at Kerr with an ambiguous look, whispering, "Uncle Kerr, the night when your proposal was successful..."
Then she moved closer to him and blinked her bright eyes. "You took my mother to your bed directly. Otherwise, how could she get pregnant so soon?"
"Ahem..." Kerr gave a dry cough and his face flushed unnaturally. "Don't ask too much, kid."
"Now you know I'm a child?" Lily squinted at him and said, "I didn't know who told me that you needed a bed partner, but now he said that I was a child. Uncle Kerr, you've spoiled the future flowers of our motherland."
Hearing this, Kerr's face turned even redder. Well, he did say that to her.
Seeing him like this, Lily stopped teasing him. "Well, uncle. I won't tease you anymore."
After saying that, she took the soup to the room of Kerr.
As soon as she entered the room, she saw Tina lying on the bed, covered with a quilt. She opened her eyes and looked at the ceiling. No one knew what she was thinking, or perhaps she didn't think of anything. She was in a state of emptiness.
"Mom." Lily said and walked to the bed with the soup.
"Lily." Seeing Lily, Tina immediately showed a smile on her face. She stood up and said, "You're here. I've been missing you for a long time."
As soon as Kerr saw her stand up, he rushed over and held her in his arms. "Be careful. Don't move too much."
While speaking, he put a pillow on her back with one hand and let her lean against it.
"Oh, it's okay. Why are you so fussy?" Tina glanced at him coquettishly.
"You have to be careful. We have to prevent all major movements. The doctor also said that the first two months are the most unstable, so we have to be more careful." As he spoke, Kerr helped her cover the quilt under her waist and put a coat on her, in case she caught a cold.
Seeing that Kerr was so nervous about his mother, Lily was relieved. Standing beside them, she looked at them with a happy smile on the corner of her mouth, but she thought of the scene that she would be with Eric in the future.
She didn't know if Eric would take care of her like this after they got married. He was so meticulous in all aspects, just like how Uncle Kerr took care of her mother. He even had to help her get up in person.
Thinking of this, the smile on her face became more and more obvious. She was completely immersed in her own thoughts and did not notice that someone was calling her.
"Lily, Lily." Tina called her twice in a row. Seeing that she still didn't respond, she couldn't help but raise her voice, "Lily!"
"What? What's wrong?" When she came to her senses, Lily looked at her mother as if she just woke up from a dream.
Seeing her like this, Tina smiled, "What are you thinking about? I called you so many times, but you didn't respond."
