After Anna finished speaking, she could not help but cry with her head buried in her arms. Yvonne quickly got down from the chair and held her leg as she pleaded, “Don’t cry, Anna”
Yvonne looked up, her clear eyes filled with tears as well.
Anna didn’t look up. She sobbed and said, “T… I don’t want to cry, but my grandpa treats me the best. I don’t want him to be
sad…
She thought, ‘Grandpa always comforts me whenever Dad and Mom quarrel”
After Anna said this. Yvonne felt like crying too.
She felt a lump in her throat, and her big eyes instantly became teary as she cried.
She felt sad that she didn’t have a grandfather.
Anna jumped down from the chair and cried with Yvonne. The more they cried, the sadder they became.
Suddenly, the two fish in the big fish tank on the table flopped and splashed water all over them.
When the cold water fell on them, the two little girls stopped crying.
The two of them wiped their tears and stood up from the floor. Their faces were red, and their long eyelashes were a little
messy.
“Don’t cry anymore… Anna said. It was unknown if she was comforting Yvonne or herself.
Yvonne nodded sadly. Out of the corner of her eye, she saw the vase by her bed and suddenly thought of something.
She thought, Oh, right, the flowers that I specially asked Lilian to get last night have Anna’s favorite lavender!
She ran over and picked up the vase with the intention to make Anna happy. However, she was suddenly stunned when she held it in her hand.
Yvonne looked at the colorful flowers in her arms and tilted her head in confusion.
“What’s wrong, Yvonne?” Anna walked to her side..
Yvonne put
the vase back on the cabinet and frowned. These aren’t my flowers, Anna.”
Knowing that Anna was coming over, she had prepared the flowers before she went to bed last night. The lovely smell of lavender filled the entire room.
However, because there were too many flowers on the balcony, the fragrance of the flowers wafted in when the wind blew, With so many fragrances mixed together, she did not pay attention to the smell of lavender after waking up in the morning.
It was only when she held the vase and smelled the flowers that she realized that something was wrong
Those flowers didn’t smell good at all.
Anna stood on tiptoes and sniffed the lavender, wrinkling her nose slightly.
She looked at Yvonne and said seriously, “You’re right, Yvonne. You’re a flower fairy. The flowers you grow smell good, but
these smell bad.”
Yvonne silently clenched her hands. When she heard what Anna said, she leaned over to smell the flowers again. They do

smell bad
“Shall we take the lavender out and
look” Anna suggested..
Yvonne nodded Okay”
The two girls carried the vase to the balcony and squatted down to take out the flowers inside one by one.
The roots of the flowers that they had just taken out were stained with water, and their roots did not look very fres
After getting all the flowers out. Anna pointed at a lavender root waked in water and said with a frown, “Look, this is rotten. h’s obviously not fresh. That’s why it smells bad”
Yvonne nodded in disappointment, feeling very upset.
Originally, she wanted to give the lavender to Anna to make her happy, but in the end, the flowers smelled bad.
In Anna’s eyes. Yvonne looked like a dejected kitten.
She couldn’t help but reach out and rub Yvonne’s hair. At the same time, she felt a bit mad. “Yvonne, the nannies here brought you these rotten flowers. You should tell your dad about this. Otherwise, they’ll only give you rotten flowers in future
Yvonne shook her head listlessly. She stared at the flowers on the floor and gently poked them with her fair and tender hinger
She rarely saw Kelvin all day long. He seemed to be very busy.
Yvonne didn’t know if she should trouble him.
Anna now felt that Yvonne was a pushover.
She thought. 1 heard Mom say that Yvonne isn’t Mr. Adler’s biological child. She was adopted
Therefore, she was now certain that the Adler family’s nannies must have bullied Yvonne because of this.
Anna could not take it anymore. She stood up from the floor and grabbed Yvonne’s hand. Her cheeks were puffed up with anger. “Isn’t your brother downstairs? You should tell him about this. I’ll talk to him with you.”
“Oh, Anna.” Yvonne did not move. Her delicate and cute face was a little conflicted. After meeting Anna’s puzzled eyes, she said softly, “I don’t think those madams gave me rotten flowers. Someone else swapped my flowers.”
Anna’s eyes widened as she listened. She was even angrier than before. “You mean someone replaced your pretty flowers. with these rotten ones?
Yvonne gripped her shirt tightly. She lowered her head and hummed gloomily.
Anna angrily said, “That’s too much. You wanted to give those beautiful flowers to me!”
Anna’s heart ached. She stared at the rotten flowers on the floor and wanted to step on them. However, when she thought that this was not her home, she held back the urge to do so.
“Let’s go and tell your brother about this!” With that, she held Yvonne’s hand and walked out.
Yvonne kept looking back with every step she took.
After they left the bedroom, Lillian walked toward them. “Ms. Adler, where are you going?”
Yvonne stopped and whispered into Anna’s ear, “Let’s tell her. She can help us too.”

Ana acally did not care who they told as long as it was someone who could help Yvonne find the bad guy who stole the
thowers
Lillian had a benevolent smile on her face she liked way younger than she was supposed to look at her age, and her memahay had also improved a lot She looked like an easygoing lady
She asked, “What’s wrong. Ms. Adler
Yvonne took her hand and led her back to her room. The three of them walked to the balcony.
Someone replaced Yvonne’s beautiful flowers with these rotten ones. Ama said logically
Lillian frowned when she saw the towers on the thou
The flowers in Yvonne’s som had been arranges by the flower artists, and Lilian was there when they did the job. The flowers had all been flown in from somewhere else. They were fresh and beautiful.
The ones on the floor now were not even as good as the defective ones left behind by the flower arrangement every day.
Lillian squatted down and picked up a few badly damaged ones.
There was always some lavender delivered to the Adler family’s place, which was mostly placed in Charles’s room, bur because he could not smell strong fragrance, there were not many lavenders,
Every day, there would be a few slightly imperfect lavenders left in a large flower basket with the other excess flowers.
The nannies who worked in the Adler family’s place could take any left flowers they liked.
What even the nannies didn’t want would be thrown away before it rotted.
As Lillian looked at these lavenders now, she found that they looked like those that were about to be thrown away.
Two of them were badly damaged, and the other two were slightly damaged.
She knew that these lavenders were from the day before yesterday, yesterday, and today.
Lilian didn’t say anything, but her eyes instantly turned gloomy.
She thought, I should’ve seen this coming. Ms. Alder’s flowers are so fragrant and beneficial to health. There are so many nannies here. It’s inevitable that some of them would have selfish motives. I just don’t know if they’re selling the flowers or bringing them home for their own use!
