Jefferson Family.

Inside the living room where fruits and snacks are placed on the tea table, Sally’s mother, Amber Sherwood warmly greeted, “Ella, Sally has been bothering you at the Lindsey Family these past few days.

Herick and I have been busy with company matters and haven’t had time to care for her.”Full novel: Becoming the Apple of Mr.Gong’s Eye — read the rest free on N​o⁠v​e⁠l​C⁠o​d⁠e​x⁠.​o⁠r​g⁠

Herick Jefferson leaned against the leather sofa, flipping through financial newspapers, with an imposing aura, “Has Sally caused you any trouble?

I heard that Wilton and Penny went to W country?”

“Not troublesome at all, Amber and Herick you’re being too polite.” Ella Lacey was very polite, waving her small hand, earnestly saying, “It just so happened that Uncle Wilton and Mommy went to W country, so Sally came to keep me company.”

“Ella, eat a piece of dried mango.” Sally offered a milky yellow fruit snack to her, looking very much like a kind sister.

Ella Lacey opened her little mouth, playfully rolling her tongue, and swallowed it.

Louis Jefferson then considerately handed her a wet wipe, Ella naturally took it, wiped her little mouth, “Thank you.”

They chatted in the living room for a while.

Those who have work or school the next day then each returned to their rooms to rest.

Suddenly, in Louis Jefferson’s room, Amber Sherwood came in with a not-so-good expression, and said in a low voice, “Why did you bring Sally back?

I was thinking that since Wilton and Penny went to W country, Sally could stay at Lindsey Family for a few more days to deepen her bond with Arthur Lindsey.”

From this, Louis could infer that she blamed him, tight-lipped, he told the truth, “It was Young Master Arthur who called to ask me to pick her up.”

“So, Arthur Lindsey actually took the initiative!” Amber was taken by surprise, “It wouldn’t be that Sally has accidentally stirred up trouble at Lindsey Family, right?”

However, she and Sally have agreed that once any tricky issues crop up, they will immediately notify Amber.

And all that Sally reported were good news: she gained further trust from Ella, flew on Arthur Lindsey’s private plane, and even made the news headline with him, being labeled as a Goddess!

On the phone, Arthur Lindsey only said, “The little girl has nowhere else to go. Since you’re back from the W country, you should bring her to your place.”

He didn’t even mention Sally’s name.

At the Lindsey residence, after Louis Jefferson had arrived, Aunt Zhou told him that “Young Master was outraged, intending to kick the two young ladies out.” He then subsequently took Sally back along with him.

At this moment, Amber Sherwood’s phone received a message from Sally:

Mommy, it’s so late, I can’t bother you in your room.

I forgot to tell you that the main reason for coming back this time was because Ella angered Arthur.

She is a weirdo with strange quirks.

Arthur discovered this, throwing a fit and kicked her out of Lindsey Family.

What do you think, should we be happy about this?

After reading the message, Amber walked out of Louis’s room with a triumphant smile on her face, mumbling, “What a shameless little wretch!”

Inside Sally’s room, the light was turned off, completely dark.

Her emotions were like a roller coaster, up and down.

Arthur’s indifference, banishment from home.

Love and blessings from Mommy and Daddy, presents.

Her little heart, at times saddened, and at times elated.

Well, that present, she had casually put it in her ring space.

It wouldn’t be good if others see it.

“Sally, what do you think of Arthur?” Ella nudged her with her toes.

“Ella, do you even need to ask that question?”

Sally chuckled lightly, hesitation apparent as the word “perfect” that was on her lips was suddenly swallowed back, “I used to think he was pretty great, but after spending the past few days with him, I was rather disappointed.

Apart from being handsome and rich, the rest are all flaws – short-tempered, cold and heartless, easily irritated…

anyway, I can’t stand him.”

Ella didn’t expect Arthur to be portrayed like that in Sally’s eyes, so she bluntly asked, “Then, do you like him?”
