Everyone was dumbfounded the moment when Shirley slapped Amelia in the face. Amelia stared at her in disbelief.
Amelia was the first to apprentice, and she was the masterâs favourite pupil. Back then, when Kevin brought Shirley to Arthur, she was still a cowardly rookie, but now she dared to bully Amelia.
âShirley, how dare you hit me.â Amelia roared in anger.
She then took a big step forward, raising her hand, and was about to hit Shirley. Just then, a black car came from the driveway, flashing its lights at Amelia several times.
Both Amelia and Shirley looked in the direction of the lights. They saw about four men getting out of the car.
The one who came out from the driverâs seat seemed to be in his late twenties, wearing a black suit, with slicked-back hair, looking elegant and handsome. While a middle-aged man came out from the passenger seat, wearing a navy blue Tang suit and a pair of glasses, looking friendly and vigorous. The two men behind were not dressed in dignity but concise.
Amelia drew back her hand immediately when she saw somebody coming. Her eyes were red, heading to the middle-aged man, âMaster, youâre finally here.â
She talked in a coy way and full of grievances.
Mildred flipped out, wanting to walk over, but was stopped by Shirley.
At this moment, Emma, who had been standing behind Shirley, suddenly ran towards the middle-aged man, saying in a soft and sweet voice, âUncle Stewart, Uncle Stewart... I want hugs...â
The person who arrived was the famous master in the perfume industry, Arthur Stewart. And the man beside him was one of his favoured students, Kevin.
Arthur, who originally had a stern face, smiled when seeing Emma running towards him, and he bent down to pick up the little one.
âLet me give you a hug.â Arthur picked up the little one, doting her.
But as Arthur picked Emma up, she cried out suddenly, âUncle Stewart, Iâm so scared. Somebody is bullying my mommy, and scolding me, my brother, and Aunt Mildred a dog. She even pushed me. Here, it hurts. Look.â
The moment Emma said this, Shirley and Mildred froze, and even Jacob didnât expect his sister to come up with this.
Although what she said was not false, the last few sentences were just spicing up the story. The funniest thing was that Emma even pretended to lift her arm, showing it to Arthur.
Amelia knew Emma was complaining about her. Amelia was already feeling vexed, and now she couldnât hold it anymore, shouting at the child, âWho pushed you? Shirley, is this how you teach your children, turning things upside down?â
âShut up.â Arthur bellowed, followed by Emma letting out a loud cry, âBoohoo, Aunt Amelia was being that mean just now, boohoo.â
âI didnât, it was them...â Amelia was indignant, pointing at Shirley and Mildred.
Kevin, who had not spoken, said with a powerful voice, âAmelia, after so many years, your temper hasnât changed at all.â
âKevin, I didnât, it was them...â
âNo matter whose fault it is, we are all in the same sect, and you were even apprenticed several years before Shirley, canât you just give in to her?
Just how old is Emma, and you yelled at her like that?â Kevin said with a blank face.
Shirley looked at Kevin. Kevin always sided with Shirley, and he would reprimand Amelia first, every time whether Shirley did wrong or not. He would suppress Ameliaâs temper with the reason of the same sect, and Amelia wouldnât dare to do it again.
However, Amelia was really pissed off this time. She looked down at her clothes, pointing at the water stains on them, and said, âThis is the proof.
Look at them. Iâm the one who got embarrassed, okay?â
Kevin sighed, âI brought back a set of clothes from abroad that I wanted to give Shirley. Since your dress is dirty now, you can change into it first.â
After saying that, he turned back and instructed his assistant, who immediately went back to the car and took out a delicate packing box.
Amelia scanned it and noticed the brand on the box wasnât cheap. This was the only gift that could make her feel more comfortable after being pissed off.
Everybody thought Shirley was into Kevin, and Amelia was delighted to take away something from Shirleyâs beloved.
Amelia took the clothes, âThen for Kevinâs sake, I wonât bother with her anymore.â
She turned around, glancing smugly at Shirley and Mildred before entering Phoenix Restaurant to change her clothes.
Mildred furiously raised her fist, but Shirley pressed her down.
Kevin pursed his lips, smiling at Shirley, âIâll bring it to you the next time I come back.â
You're The Best Medicine For Me After saying that, Kevin looked down at Jacob, who had been standing by the side. He took a big step towards him, raising his hands, and said, âDo you want a hug?â
Jacob nodded, raising his hands for Kevin to hug.
Shirley walked over and said, âEmma, Jacob, you have grown up, how can you simply want others to carry you? Come down.â
Arthur chuckled, âShirley, I havenât seen them for a long time. It isnât enough for just hugging one. But unfortunately, Iâm too old to carry them at the same time.â
Kevin carried Jacob to Arthur.
Jacob called out very politely, âUncle Stewart, long time no see.â
âEh, good boy. Youâre all good kids.â Arthur reached out to stroke Jacobâs head.
Kevin reached out to Emma and said, âCan Daddy Mitchell hug you?â
âSure.â Emma wiped away the tears in her eyes and lolled into Kevinâs arms.
Kevin carried a child in each arm, gazing them gently and doting them, with a smile on his face. He then turned around and asked Shirley, âLetâs go in first. Had the two kids eaten before coming over?â
âNot yet.â Shirley answered.
âThen letâs get in and order a little snack. The feast isnât starting that soon, as we have to wait for the guests. Master has also invited a few wealthy businessmen from City L. Letâs get it and chat.â
âAlright.â Kevin walked ahead, while Shirley followed behind.
Mildred noticed that Kevin, Shirley, and the two kids were more like a family.
The group of people walked into Phoenix Restaurant, and at that moment, a black Rolls Royce turned in from the main road. The man inside the car was staring at Shirley and the man in front of her, icily...
