The Don's Orphan Wife Is A Mafia Empire Princess (Elara) novel Chapter 27

Chapter 16 Disgust

William Miller had already woken up. Early in the morning, he had been eagerly staring at the door, waiting for Evelyn Hart to bring him food. Who would have thought that Leah Foster would come first and bring his favorite food. Whether it was hamburgers or snacks, Evelyn Hart had never allowed him to eat them.

Evelyn Hart was immediately forgotten by him, and he nodded excitedly. “Auntie Leah, you’re the best. You’re a thousand times better than my mom.”

A hint of contempt flashed in Leah Foster’s eyes.

Sure enough, children were easy to coax. Some snacks and potato chips were enough to satisfy him.

Not long after, Ethan Miller also came. He still cared a little bit about his only son. Moreover, he still needed him to prevent Evelyn Hart from getting a divorce.

Ethan Miller walked in, first touched William Miller’s forehead. When he found that the fever had subsided, he let out a sigh of relief.

Then a look of disgust flashed in his eyes. “Evelyn Hart is really scheming. She said only certain medicine could be taken, but he got better without it. She didn’t come, so what? It’s just a illness. There’s no need to make a fuss. I can handle it myself.”

He didn’t know that Evelyn Hart had been here. He just thought that Evelyn Hart had exaggerated before to prove how hard she had worked.

William Miller blinked and suddenly said, “Mom came last night. She also said she would bring me food later.”

Leah Foster’s smile froze on her face. Her fingers tightened on her clothes, and she hated Evelyn Hart even more. She had spoken so righteously yesterday, but secretly, she still wanted to compete with her!

“It seems that Dr. Hart still can’t let go of William. What she said yesterday was probably to make you give in, Ethan.” Ethan Miller felt proud. Evelyn Hart was indeed pretending. His mood immediately lightened. He let out a cold snort and felt a bit better for no reason. “Give in? She’s dreaming. If she wants me not to divorce her, she has to kneel down and beg me!”

As soon as the words fell, the ward door was pushed open, and Evelyn Hart walked in. A look of embarrassment flashed in Ethan Miller’s eyes. Just as he was about to say something, Evelyn Hart didn’t even look at him and came to the bedside.

Ethan Miller, who was completely ignored, felt a flash of shame and annoyance. He opened his mouth but didn’t say a word in the end.

Evelyn Hart frowned instinctively when she saw the junk food on the table. Looking at William Miller, she said with a serious frown, “William Miller, have I ever told you that you can’t eat this junk food?”

William Miller, having eaten his fill, had already forgotten about what happened last night and immediately retorted, “Why not? Other kid in eat it, but I can’t?”

“You’re so annoyin

on’t want to see you.”

Leah Foster rolled her eyes and stepped forward to speak for William Miller. “Dr. Hart, don’t worry. The things I bought for William are the best and have no additives.”

“William is sick. Eating a little of what he likes will help him recover faster. It’s okay to eat a little.”

William Miller immediately looked at Leah Foster gratefully, both admiring and happy. “I knew Auntie Leah is the best. She’s not like you, always nagging. You’re so annoying.”

As he spoke, he looked at the food Evelyn Hart had brought and immediately covered his nose in disgust. Then, he spilled all the food on the ground and said angrily, “I don’t like these things. I only like snacks.”

Evelyn Hart pursed her lips and walked out without saying a word.

Leah Foster blocked her way and said with a smile, “Dr. Hart, William is just a child. He doesn’t mean any harm. You won’t mind, will you?”

Evelyn Hart let out a cold laugh and her gaze swept over Ethan Miller and William Miller. “William Miller, this is the last time.”

As soon as Evelyn Hart finished speaking, she turned and left. She had been too kind-hearted last night. She wouldn’t make such a low-level mistake again.

After she left, Leah Foster immediately put on a worried look and said nervously, “Ethan, Dr. Hart must be angry just now. You should go and explain.”

Ethan Miller, who had been thinking of chasing after her, immediately changed his expression and said angrily, “Why should I chase after her? I’ve been too indulgent to her.”

A hint of a smile flashed in Leah Foster’s eyes, but she pretended to persuade him magnanimously. “You two are husband and wife. There’s no grudge that can’t be resolved. I think Dr. Hart still wants to see William, which means she still cares about you. Maybe the divorce is just her throwing a tantrum.”

After hearing Leah Foster’s words, Ethan Miller felt more at ease. Evelyn Hart was indeed playing hard to get. She really couldn’t leave him. “Then let her know the price of throwing a tantrum. I’m determined to get a divorce.”

Leah Foster was about to speak, but Ethan Miller interrupted her. “Okay, Leah. Don’t worry about this anymore. I still need you to help take care of William. I have something to deal with at the company.”

A look of apology appeared on Ethan Miller’s face. “Evelyn is being unreasonable. Don’t worry. I’ll make her apologize to you in the future.”

“You said you liked a set of jewelry before. I’ll ask my secretary to send it to you later.”

Leah Foster’s eyes immediately lit up, and she pretended to decline. “No need, Ethan. We’re good friends. Helping each other is what we should do. Besides, in my heart, William is like my own son.”

“I’m more than happy to be with him. Don’t worry. You go and do your own thing. I’ll take care of William. However, I have something to do tonight and may not be able to stay…”

Before Ethan Miller could speak, his phone rang. Ethan Miller answered the phone, and the butler’s voice came through. “Mr. Miller, please come back quickly. Mrs. Miller is packing her things and moving out.”

Ethan Miller’s heart skipped a beat, and a hint of panic flashed in his eyes.

Before he could speak, Leah Foster’s voice rang in his ear. “Ethan, what’s wrong? Is Dr. Hart angry again? Don’t worry. She’s just tough on the outside and soft on the inside. It’s just a tantrum. She said she wouldn’t care about William before, but she still came, didn’t she?”

“If necessary, take me with you. Let me explain to her properly. You two are a real family.”

Leah Foster’s words successfully soothed Ethan Miller’s agitated heart and calmed him down.

That’s right. Evely rt was doing this on purpose to get attention. Huh, he hated such scheming women the most.

Clenching the pho n his hand, Ethan Miller said in a cold voice, “If she wants to leave, let her. Tell her that if she dares to step out of the door, she’ll never be able to come back!”

William Miller, who was lying on the bed, also heard Ethan Miller’s words and immediately echoed, “Dad, is Mom leaving?”

Ethan Miller hung up the phone and nodded.

The next second, William Miller looked at Leah Foster excitedly, his eyes shining brightly. “If Mom leaves, can Auntie Leah move in?”

“Dad, let Mom leave. I want Auntie Leah to live with us!”
