"Mommy, she is a good friend of Essie. Now no matter what we say, she won't believe that Essie is using her. When we tear up the mask of Essie and let her see it clearly, she will understand," Valery said.
"Well, don't always judge a gentleman by your own vicious heart. Anyway, without Essie, I can't marry such a good wife as Eva. She is my matchmaker." Vinton chuckled and put his arm around Eva's shoulder.
Valery rolled her eyes at him. In her eyes, her brother, who valued a beauty more than a country, was just a useless fighter.
After coming back from the Xu family's manor, Vinton sent Eva back to her apartment.
"Honey, since Jim has been haunted by the ghost of his ex-girlfriend, you'd better keep a distance from him in the future. I don't think that woman is a good person," Vinton said, holding her in his arms and sitting on the sofa. As soon as he came back, Eva told him that she had seen a ghost.
"Vinton, I'm still worried that you think I'm insane." Eva rested her head on his broad shoulder.
"Even if you are insane, what you see is an illusion related to yourself. It can't be his girlfriend. You have nothing to do with her," Vinton said seriously.
"That's right. I'm a normal person. How can I have an illusion? Janice was wearing a cos Bloody Mary red dress when she died. I heard that the person who died in red would become a ferocious ghost. Maybe she would become a very terrible ghost. " Eva pouted and continued, "There are many unsolved events in the world."
"Honey, no matter what it is, it makes me feel that it has a bad intention. Janet has been chasing after you and pestering Jade. I guess her sister is not as simple as you think. " Vinton frowned with worry.
Eva pointed at her finger and said, "They probably have some problems here. They always bind me and scum Jim together. I have nothing to do with him. After paying his debt of gratitude, we will go on separate road. I'd better not even meet him. From then on, we'll be strangers!"
"That's good. Or I will worry about you." Vinton smiled evilly.
"What are you worried about?" Eva turned to look at him and asked, "Vinton, have you been hiding something to yourself that you don't believe me?"
"Honey, I trust you a hundred percent. I don't trust Jim too much. What if he takes a fancy to you and wants to be my rival in love?" Vinton pinched her chin.
"Don't worry. I don't like him a little bit. And he probably dislikes me a hundred times more. The standard of his choice is the weak, sick beauty like Janice, not a tough woman like me! In his eyes, I'm not a woman, but a third kind of person," Eva said resentfully.
"That's because he has no taste. My Eva is the best woman in the world."
Eva grinned and put her arms around his neck, "My little Vinton is also the best in the world."
After taking a sip of milk, she changed the topic. "I'm telling you that I am able to get even on my grudges during this pageant of Miss Eastern. I eliminated the bitch, Charlene in the first round. Bald Chen was so angry that he tilted his mouth and came to argue with me. Bald Chen was about to faint with anger. He asked me if I had the ability to play? I said I didn't care. Just find seven or eight capable people and play with her in front of me."
As soon as Eva finished her words, she burst into laughter. The thought of Bald Chen spitting out blood out of anger made her feel better.
"You are so naughty." Vinton rubbed her nose.
After a while of silence, the corners of Eva's mouth tightened and her expression became a little serious. "Vinton, can I ask you a question?"
"Go ahead, honey. I'll tell you everything I know." Vinton smiled charmingly.
"If Essie chooses Holy, will you break up with her?" Eva lowered her voice, like a faint night wind.
"What about you? Will you be on my side or on her side?" Vinton asked.
"Vinton, you are the one I love most. No matter what decision you make, I will support you. But I can't lose my good friend Essie. Without her, I can't stay in the entertainment circle at all, let alone achieve today's achievements, and I won't know you. We have sworn that nothing can affect our friendship," Eva said firmly.
Vinton picked up the cup on the tea table and took a sip of tea. "In fact, Essie is like a ham sandwiched in the middle of a sandwich. If she chooses me, she will lose the trust of Holy, and if she chooses Holy, she will also lose my trust. If I were her, I would keep neutral and let Mr. Baron make the decision by himself. Then our relationship won't change."
When he spoke, an indescribable glint flashed through his eyes. This was a hint. He hoped that Essie could remain neutral, and he also hoped that Eva could understand his words and convey his meaning to Essie.
Looking at him for a long time, Eva nodded and said, "You're right. It's the best for Essie to remain neutral. I'll talk to her about it tomorrow."
Vinton smiled. Although his wife was innocent and simple, she was not stupid. She could understand what he meant with some advice.
At this moment, as soon as Zac and Essie returned to the house, the children had fallen asleep.
When Essie finished bathing and came out of the bathroom, Zac frowned.
