"Well, we are both doing fine. Violet, come home with Greg whenever you have time. I will make dinner for you," Lily said. Now only Violet was in the city. Sir and Madam had been in Hong Kong and young master was also abroad. So the only person that she could look forward to coming home to visit often was Miss Violet.
Violet thought for a while and said to the phone, "Auntie, I am free today. How about I come home now? But Greg may not come along with me since he is busy working at the moment."
"Great, I am so happy that you are coming. I am going to prepare lunch for you," said Lily.
"Aunt Lily," Violet immediately cried, "Don't prepare a heavy meal. Let's eat something light since only three of us will be present. Please cook something light without meat, and try to use less oil when cooking. Recently I have eaten a lot of fried things and I just want to avoid them now."
Violet didn't want to forget that she was pregnant now. So she had to pay attention to her diet.
"Okay, I'll do as you say. Bill and I are okay with anything," said Lily with a smile.
"Okay, then I'll hang up now. See you later," Violet felt happy at the thought that she was going to her home.
"Okay."
Violet reached the Chu villa in some time. Seeing Bill washing the car in the yard, Violet greeted him, "Hi, Uncle Bill, I am back."
"Violet," Bill stopped his work and went to Violet when he saw her, saying, "Lily said that you wouldn't come back before noon. It seems that you were homesick and wanted to come here, early. Isn't it?"
"Yeah, I haven't seen you and Auntie for a long time, I miss both of you very much," Violet said. After getting to know that she was pregnant, she was feeling very lonely. She had no one to discuss her situation with. Alice was busy with her work recently. She had set up a clothing design studio for herself and was busy with its work. So Violet didn't want to bother her. Besides, Violet's parents were not at home, so she had suddenly started feeling lonely.
"Come, let's go inside. Lily is busy cooking for you," said Bill smiling.
Violet and Bill walked into the villa.
"Auntie Lily, I am here," Violet called out happily.
"Violet, I thought that you would come back at noon," Lily walked out from the kitchen and said to her.
"Since I had nothing to do at home, so I came early," said Violet with a smile.
"Okay, you rest on the sofa for some time. I am preparing the lunch," said Lily.
"Okay, is the computer still in the study room? I want to do a video chat with Mom now if possible," said Violet.
"Yes, I will get it for you. Wait in the living room for some time," said Bill.
"Thank you," Violet said. She felt very comfortable since Bill and Lily treated her so well. And the sweet feeling of coming back home was always there with her.
