Sebastian Yansford tightened his hold on her.
He let go a few seconds later.
Eva Nightingale found her eyes welling with tears, everything she saw was shrouded in a thin mist.
At this moment, she realized just how sad she felt.
"Uncle, I'm really worried about you!"
"Silly girl." He pretended to be calm, holding her little hand, "Come on, let's go eat."
Never had he felt more like a failure than he did now.
Life was just a complete mess!!
And the less said about his emotions, the better.
He even suspected he was sick.

As the dinner ended, Eliana Beckett didn't want to disturb the young ones, so she quickly found an excuse and slipped away.
Eva Nightingale and Ella White were preparing to soak in the hot springs in the back.
A few men were still sitting in the living room drinking.
"Crown Prince, Edward, how about some cards?" Sebastian Yansford, already back to normal, exuded an air of nobility: "Brothers, it's been a long time since we got together like this!"
