Although Evelyn Taylor still had a strong front, she had begun to slowly change inside. She no longer orchestrated accidental encounters with Lily Turner and Easton Holmes, nor did she go out of her way to intrude upon the two of them.
The Taylor Family had settled down, and Sophia Wood had come to terms with many things, resuming a normal mother-daughter relationship with Lily Turner.
After observing Easton Holmes’ kindness towards Lily Turner during recent interactions, she decided not to interfere with their relationship.
Fabian Holmes and Amelia Linton, after being sharply reprimanded by Michael Linton that day, had been reflecting on their actions over the years.
The two had not fully come to terms with everything yet, but there was a significant change in their hearts and minds.
While in their reflective state, they did not bother Lily Turner, nor did they even make a phone call.
Without the disturbances from those people, Lily Turner and Easton Holmes enjoyed some peace, but it only lasted two days before a mother and daughter arrived at their home.
"Brother!"
A figure quickly flashed past her eyes, and Lily Turner saw the girl who called "Brother" leap into Easton Holmes’ embrace. Seeing this, her brow furrowed sharply, and she angrily glared at the girl in his embrace.
The girl was standing with her back to Lily Turner and did not notice her unusual reaction, but Easton Holmes was different; he noticed every move she made and a faint smile appeared at the corner of his mouth.
"Why did you arrive early? I was just about to head out to pick you up." As he spoke, Easton Holmes calmly pushed the girl out of his embrace and reached to draw the jealous Lily Turner standing aside to him. "Honey! Let me introduce you, this adorable girl is Uncle’s daughter, Athena Linton."
He somewhat regretted introducing them right away; since she rarely felt jealous, he should have let her stew a bit longer.
Actually, when Athena Linton called "Brother," Lily Turner had already guessed, but seeing Athena leap into Easton Holmes’ arms, she couldn’t help but feel uncomfortable inside.
She never managed to disguise her feelings in front of him, and all her thoughts were plainly written on her face.
"Ah... ah... Lily Turner! You’re Lily Turner!"
Athena Linton looked extremely excited, pointing at Lily Turner standing next to Easton Holmes, her face full of disbelief and shock.
This situation was not unfamiliar to Lily Turner, but she hadn’t experienced it for some time while staying home.
Easton Holmes lightly tapped the hand pointing at Lily Turner, pretending to be angry as he put on a stern face, "Don’t be so dramatic."
Seeing her reaction, he immediately realized she was a fan of his wife.
"Brother! How did you trick the goddess Lily into your arms?" Athena Linton, a devoted fan of Lily Turner, directly ignored Easton, reaching out to hold Lily Turner’s hands, "She’s alive! Truly alive..."
"Naughty girl! Watch your language!"
Easton Holmes lightly flicked his finger at Athena’s forehead, thinking that his wife was alive all along, wasn’t she? This girl was so excited she couldn’t even speak properly.
Lily Turner didn’t mind at all, having frequently encountered such fans before, some even more excited than Athena, grabbing and pinching her just to confirm she was really standing in front of them.
At this moment, Athena’s mother, Serena Zimmerman, came over, seeing the situation and realizing her daughter was being mischievous again, she quickly raised her hand to stop her, "Athena! Stop fooling around!"
