Libby knew that the girl called James "Uncle James", but the two of them were not related by blood.
Although she was still so young, she would become an adult in three months. They could become a couple.
"Libby, go upstairs with Kara and help her take a bath."
James gave his stern order.
Libby nodded blankly, feeling that her conjecture had been proved right.
Mr. James was cold to other people, and he didn't bother to say even a few more words to them most of the time. However, he was not only gentle but also considerate to the girl.
...
James returned to his room, took a shower, and changed his clothes. As he was tying his necktie in front of the mirror, he remembered the girl's pale face. He called Will out of worry and asked him to come over and take a look.
When he went downstairs for breakfast and saw the western-style food on the table, he frowned.
"Libby, Kara suffers from poor digestion. Cook Chinese food in the morning from now on."
Libby was very surprised. She had worked for Mr. James for several years and had always prepared western-style food in the morning. Seeing how considerate he was to the girl, she told herself in her heart that she must treat Kara with even more care in the future.
Kara woke up hungry. She got out of bed and looked at the time. Her mouth twitched as she found that it was already in the afternoon.
She went downstairs after washing up. She swallowed down her saliva as she smelled the delicious food and ran into the kitchen happily.
"Libby, what are you cooking for breakfast? It smells so good."
"Mr. James told me to make some porridge for you. I've also made some chicken soup."
When Kara heard that it was Uncle James' order, she smiled sweetly as her heart warmed up.
Libby brought the porridge out. Looking at the smile on Kara's face, she couldn't help but sigh, "Miss Kara, Mr. James has really been very nice to you."
"That's true."
Kara nodded. Ever since her parents passed away, no one had been so considerate to her. They all treated her as if she was an invalid that was going to die at any moment.
She noted down how kind Uncle James was to her in her heart, and she decided that she would also find a way to repay him in the future.
When Libby was preparing dinner, Kara helped her in the kitchen. Although she couldn't cook a whole meal for Uncle James, she still wanted to help.
