My Mommy Is A CEO

Lauren didn’t enter the temple, because he had different beliefs. He will not blaspheme Buddhism, but he will not change his beliefs, so he waited outside. Kevin didn’t have any pious beliefs, so he took the opportunity to stay with Lauren. Even though Lauren’s attitude was indifferent, Kevin was cheeky enough to talk to him. Lauren simply turned around to look at the mountain view, ignoring him.

Kevin was more patient and endurable than Nia, and he didn’t get annoyed by Lauren treating him like this, and still stayed with him with a smile on his face.

In the temple, after buying the incense for offering, Eve and her sister knelt down devoutly in front of the statue, silently making their own prayers in their hearts. This was the second time Nia had accompanied her sister to offer incense. When Eve got up to burn incense, she murmured,

“Eve, why do you believe in these things at such a young age? You might as well take good care of your body.”

“Nia, don’t say that in front of her,” Eve immediately turned her head and warned in a low voice when she heard this, “She will hear it!”

Nia was amused by Eve’s serious appearance, and she said without hesitation,

“What are you afraid of? It’s just a statue. If she can really save all sentient beings, there won’t be so much suffering in the world.”

Nia’s voice was loud and impolite, and the surrounding monks and pilgrims heard it. Everyone glared at her and accused Nia of being rude with their eyes, but Nia didn’t realize it, and even stared back.

Eve looked at her unruly and willful sister, with mixed feelings in her heart.

Once there was a crack in trust, she will start to look for the traces, and the traces can be noticed. Today, she had clearly realized that her sister was only kind to her, and was always domineering in front of others. She had to look directly at her sister’s character problems.

“Nia, let’s go.” Eve didn’t want to cause disputes in such a solemn place, so she hurriedly put on a incense and pulled Nia out of the temple Of the Eclipse. When she left, she did not forget to silently pray to the god in her heart not to blame her sister.

Seeing Eve pulling Nia out, Lauren immediately realized that something must have happened just now. After Nia got on the sedan chair and began to descend the mountain again, he asked her,

“Did something happen in the temple just now?”

Eve lowered her eyes and shook her head slightly.

Lauren could have guessed it without being told, so he sneered and said,

“Did your sister do something disrespectful in the temple?”

Eve raised her eyebrows slightly that Lauren guessed it so easily…

“Lauren,” she couldn’t help turning her head to him and said, “Is my sister really that domineering?”

Lauren just smiled and didn’t answer. Eve lowered her head, her steps becoming heavier.

After coming down from the mountain, Eve’s mood wasn’t high. Nia had suggested going to the city to have fun, but Eve said she was tired and wanted to go back to rest.

Nia thought it was boring but didn’t show it. She just stayed at the hotel and kept talking about their parents and Eve’s illness like a good daughter and sister.

“Nia, I’m a little tired today…” This was the first time that Eve didn’t want her sister to stay with her. She felt puzzled and suspicious of herself.

“Why don’t you go back with Mr. Berry?”

Nia immediately raised an eyebrow when she heard this statement. She had come here today hoping to ease the relationship between Lauren and her on Vonpond Mountain but hadn’t found an opportunity yet.

“Even though it’s dinner time soon, you’re not asking me for dinner?” Nia asked sarcastically.

“I… just feel a little tired…” How naive Eve was! She didn’t know how to respond properly so she could only stammer out an excuse.

“Even if you’re tired, you still need to eat dinner! I will stay with you tonight; we can go back later.” Nia made a decision in a domineering manner.

Eve pursed her lips but couldn’t refuse anymore after all this persuasion from Nia.

Usually even if Nia insisted on staying after eating dinner together, things wouldn’t be too bad because at least Eve would talk with her normally.

However, this time even Eva remained silent throughout their meal, let alone Lauren’s coldness towards them both at the table as well – making for an awkward atmosphere where they were barely able get through their meal together in peace without any real conversation happening between them all.

After finishing dinner, when they were heading back, Nia noticed something off about Eva right away so she asked Kevin,

“Don’t you think there’s something wrong with Eva today?”

“Is she just tired?” Kevin replied absentmindedly while driving carefully along the road ahead of them.Content © NôvelDrama.Org 2024.

“No,” Nia frowned. “Even if she is exhausted, she wouldn’t be that indifferent towards me. There must be some problem.”

Kevin glanced over at Nia before saying reproachfully,

“I think it might have been because of your attitude towards those bearers during our trip earlier. I mean, I couldn’t bear watching either.”

“What? Those bearers are basically coolies! What’s wrong with me scolding them?!” Nia raised eyebrows defiantly, saying unhappily.

“I didn’t mean it that way. I just want you to tone it down a bit in front of Eve. She’s innocent and easily shaken by these small things. You have to play the role of a gentle and caring older sister. When you’re so fierce today, do you think she won’t be affected?”

Nia thought about it and decided to let go of her anger. She sat back in her seat, feeling down and said, “I understand. I’ll be more careful next time.”

“Okay, don’t be upset. For the sake of our plan, just bear with it for a while,” Kevin smiled and reached out to pat Nia’s hand in comfort. Unexpectedly, in the blink of an eye, a car from the opposite direction drove straight towards them. Nia screamed in terror and before her voice could even fade away, there was a loud crash as two cars collided.

The pop-up airbag instantly knocked Kevin and Nia unconscious, and they suffered a lot of injuries.

The car on the opposite side was also seriously damaged, but the driver and the people in the car didn’t suffer much.

“Damn it! I told you guys to stop bothering me, and now we’ve gotten into a car accident!” The driver grumbled as he got out of the car, looking a bit dizzy.

“Leon, I’m sorry…” The man who came along quickly apologized and said, “What do we do now?”

The driver lifted his head and twisted his waist, loosening his muscles. Wasn’t he Casper’s lackey Leon!?

Leon said indifferently, “What’s there to be afraid of? Let’s go over and see how the person in the car is doing.”

Leon relied on Casper’s protection and thought that as long as they didn’t die, he could just pay some money for hit-and-run without taking responsibility. However, he didn’t expect his subordinates to investigate the situation and report back with a cry of alarm.
