Violet started the car and drove her daughter back to the store.
The little girl was sitting on the passenger side, with her little mouth pouting, with an unhappy face.
Violet didn't hear her and gave her a sideways glance.
"What's wrong? A little mouth can hang an oil bottle."
The little girl flattened her mouth and said in a milky voice, "Mommy, does Uncle Louis not like me anymore? He didn't even hug me just now."
Hearing these words, Violet sighed in her heart.
"Erin , Uncle Louis is probably in a bad mood today, it's not that he doesn't like you. But then again, he's someone else's dad, he's not likely to like you as much as he likes his own kids, so don't pay too much attention to him, okay?"
Violet tried to explain Louis' behavior as politely as possible, not wanting to hurt her daughter's little heart.
The little girl's two little short legs wobbled and her little mouth flattened.
"How great it would be if Uncle Louis was my dad."
She likes Uncle Louis' so much.
How is it not your own dad?
Violet glanced at the little one with a flash of apology in her eyes.
It's her fault, she let her daughter grow up without a complete family.
Back to the store.
Evie is getting ready to go out.
"Evie, where are you going?" Violet inquired.
"Sis, I was just about to call you. My dad called me and said my grandmother is sick and wants me to go back and visit her." Evie returned the call.
Violet frowned slightly, "You have to go back? Why don't I go back with you to see grandma Williams?"
Since she married into the Johnson family for Evie a year ago and her aunt Miller took the bride-price from the Johnson family, she and Evie have been cut off from the Williams family.
If there was nothing going on, she was not in favor of Evie going back.
Because the Millers are not nice people and don't treat Evie like a daughter at all.
It's just that grandma Williams has been good to Evie, and now that she's sick, it's time to go back and visit.
