The child's atmosphere was more like that of his appearance.

Emma squinted her eyes.

'Of course, I know their previous relationship so that I may be thinking this way for no reason.'

What are you thinking?

Emma tried to shake off her thoughts.

First of all, isn't she here today to offer Evelyn an investment offer?

Then Evelyn crept up.

"Well, I'm sorry, but I have to greet a guest. Can you hold on a second?"

"Yes, I will."

Emma nodded her head.

Turning swiftly, Evelyn began to serve the incoming guests like a flood.

Emma sneaked a question to Bianca.

"How old are you this year, Bianca?

"I am seven years old."

At the child's answer, Emma had a strange thought.

Seven years old.

It overlaps with the time Evelyn went missing.

But the Duke said she wasn't his child...

'Did you run away from another man?'

But no one else, that responsible Evelyn?

And the two of them loved each other passionately.

Emma's brows are deeply wrinkled.

Then, Evelyn, carrying a tray, strode toward Emma.

"Come on, coffee. Cookies are on the house."

Bianca's share was a glass of milk, but Bianca was only looking eagerly at cookies.

Evelyn narrowed her eyes.

"The cookies belong to your friend; Bibi shouldn't covet them."

"Yes."

Bianca quickly became sullen.

Emma burst into laughter and pushed Bianca a cookie plate.

"I'm fine so that Bianca can eat the cookies."
