Gabrielle headed upstairs with Westley to pick up Star, then they took him to the living room. Star was a down-to-earth child and he was the quiet type, but it made him happy to see so many people here.
All kids enjoyed these kinds of lively occasions.
As soon as he sat down on the sofa, Tammy ran over and greeted him happily. After that, she sat on the carpet on the floor to play with him.
Wilson and Bonnie didn't think it was a big deal, so they said nothing. It was rare to see this proud little girl being so considerate to another child.
When they were in the Campbell Family, a lot of kids wanted to be her playmate, but she all refused them and only played with older kids.
But with Star, she was different. Bonnie could see her act like a normal child who wanted to make friends with others.
Born in the Campbell Family, she had been spoiled rotten.
"I want to stay here with Star, aunt Gabrielle. You can go have dinner." Tammy looked at Gabrielle with a smile.
"Alright, thanks. You two little darlings have fun." Gabrielle gave Tammy a pat on the head and went to the dining room.
After she sat down, Westley filled a bowl of soup for her and got her some food.
Wilson also did the same for Bonnie.
When Lolita and Macy saw how sweet Westley was to Gabrielle, they were envious.
The scene made the two of them start dreaming about their ideal marriages.
The ladies hoped they could someday experience this and find someone who would love them so deeply all their lives.
Just thinking about it made their hearts pound.
"What are you looking at?" Sitting next to Lolita, Jason noticed that she couldn't stop staring at Gabrielle and Westley.
He couldn't help but stare at them too. Even at dinner, they looked so happy together, making everyone jealous.
"Nothing." Lolita smiled and looked away.
"You want that too?" Jason asked in a hushed voice.
Lolita felt surprised by his sudden question. There was a pregnant pause in the air, then she looked at him and nodded shyly. "Yes, I am. Gabrielle is so happy with Mr. Morris. Most women want their marriage to be like that. If you're married to someone who truly loves you and cares for you, it would be the greatest happiness you could ever experience."
"You think so?" Jason smiled.
Lolita immediately laughed. "Of course, I do. I want to find someone who would treat me well and love me unconditionally. I want to be happy. Don't you agree, Mr. Foster?"
"You're right. Let's eat for now." Jason started to get some food for her.
"Lolita, your boss is so kind to his employees. I wish I had a boss like him." Macy joked when she saw Jason picking up food for Lolita.
"Mr. Foster is indeed a very nice man. I just remembered you and Gabrielle are studying the same major, Macy. How about you come to work in our company after your internship? Mr. Foster would be your boss then," Lolita suggested.
