"Honey, were you jealous last night because of Uncle?" she asked directly.
Hmm, she thought that since they were married, they should discuss everything openly... rather than guessing and being unnecessarily jealous!
He hadn’t expected her to ask so directly!
He curved his lips slightly, picked her up, and headed upstairs into the bedroom without any intention of answering her question.
He was so noble, aloof, and arrogantly proud. How could he be jealous of Sebastian Yansford?
Hmm, but as it turned out, he already was!
He didn’t answer, but Eva Nightingale had a sense of it. Whenever Uncle was mentioned, his expression would inexplicably turn several degrees colder.
Lying in his arms, Eva Nightingale felt very secure.
Due to her pregnancy, she could sleep quite easily.
She quickly fell asleep, her small face rubbing against his chest through her nightgown.
He kissed her forehead, then got up and left the room!
Because he took some time off to accompany her, he left a pile of work, always handling it alone in the study during the deep of night.
Every time he lulled her asleep, he would go to the study alone!
It wasn’t until near dawn that he would return to bed, holding her in his arms to sleep again.
Eva Nightingale slept deeply.
But she felt as if something she was holding was gone! It made her a bit uncomfortable!
Turning around, her fingertips moved slightly.
She realized... the bed was completely empty!
Sitting up in confusion, not seeing his figure, Eva Nightingale lost her sleepiness and got out of bed.
Through the window came a brilliant neon light, casting onto the soft, thick carpet.
In this Presidential Mansion, the only familiar person to her was Lucas Knight.
Although she didn’t know any of the housekeepers and staff, they were all very respectful towards her, without the slightest negligence.
No sooner had she stepped out of the room.
A few servants approached, concerned, "Miss Eva! Are you feeling unwell?"
After all, it was the middle of the night! Seeing her awake made them all nervous.
"Miss Eva! You are the ’distinguished guest’ invited by His Excellency the President. Your words are as good as His Excellency’s. If you have any instructions, just say them, and we’ll strive to fulfill them!"
Their tone was very courteous.
Exuding a sense of refinement...
Truly, different from ordinary staff outside!
Eva Nightingale was slightly stunned.
Was Lucas Knight giving her authority?
Clearly, she wasn’t anything... yet she was treated with such respect by these people, making her feel a bit unaccustomed.
"Thank you all. I’m fine," she said, "I just want to know, His Excellency the President, where did he go?"
They were clearly sleeping together before.
She fell asleep for a while, only to find him gone.
She was indeed very curious.
The staff politely replied, "His Excellency has many matters to attend to! Usually at this time, he is busy in the study."
They could see that Eva Nightingale’s relationship with His Excellency was not ordinary. After all, she was the first woman His Excellency personally brought into the Presidential Mansion!
If they weren’t mistaken.
Eva Nightingale was very likely to be the future First Lady! They couldn’t afford to offend her, not that they would dare. They had to take good care of His Excellency’s ’friend’!
"Miss, no need to be polite. His Excellency’s study is in the rear hall of the mansion!"
The Presidential Mansion was especially large.
It was like a palace, grand and elegant, exuding nobility at every corner.
The backyard had an abundance of flowers.
Two rows of amber lights shone warmly on her.
Next to the garden was the study. She saw a tall and upright figure inside!
No, it seemed there was also a woman...
