Hiding the Twins from Their Billionaire Father by Pixie

S31 133. Making a Friend

“Good morning, Bryan. How are you today?” Eva sat on the other side of the bed in a coquettish manner. Seeing

that, Bryan's eyebrows

furrowed.

“Good.” A second later, Bryan continued wiping his patient's neck.

Eva knew that was a cold response. However, her smile widened. Her gaze turned to Mrs. Connor.

“Good morning, Mom. How are you this morning?”

The pale woman nodded with a faint smile. “Fine. I'm ready for physiotherapy. Do you want to accompany me?”

“Of course | want to. That's my purpose for staying here so that it’s easier forto look after you. And you

don’t have to worry about my boutique, Mom. I've trained all my employees to be independent.”

Eva glanced at Bryan briefly. However, to her surprise, the man d

“Have you had breakfast, Mom?” Eva deliberately sweetened her voi

her.”

Seeing those shady eyes, Eva's face lit up. “Really? Wow, | thought she had forgotten about Mom because of her

new boyfriend.”

One of Bryan's eyebrows moved down. He put the towel and basin on the table then turned his body to fully face

Eva.

“Sorry, aren't you Ava's sister?”

Eva glanced left and right. “Yes, what's up?”

“Why do you seem like you belittle her? Even though I'm a stranger and she’s your own family.”

Eva gaped at the question. After one blink, she let out a laugh. “I'm not belittling anyone. I'm just speaking the

truth. Last night, Mr. Harper proposed to Ava. Have you heard that, Mom?”

Mrs. Connor shook her head. Before she could reply, Eva continued speaking. “So she hasn't told you about the

progress of her

relationship?”

Sighing, Eva shook her head. “My sister is still the same. When can she act more mature? She should ask your

blessing first, then she can accept Mr. Harper's proposal.”

Bryan turned around to get the basin. He was too lazy to respond to Eva. Unfortunately, just as he was about to

step into the bathroom, Eva asked, “Bryan, do you think their relationship will last long? Will they both reach the

stage of marriage?”

Bryan turned his head with his eyebrows knitted. “Why ask me?”

Eva shrugged her shoulders. The smile on her face looked innoce I'm just wondering whether people’s views are

“She can do it once she gets used to it. Moreover, with her extraordinary adaptability, I'm sure she can face any

obstacle. You don’t need to worry. Now if you'll excuse me, | want to clean up this

basin.”

Before Eva could hold him again, Bryan walked away. Eva’s annoyance immediately rose.

“Is he avoiding me? | still talk to him.”

Seeing Eva's sullen face, Mrs. Connor let out a faint sigh. “He's like that. Just let him be.”

“He’s also mean and cold towards you? But he’s a nurse. He should look after you patiently and kindly.”

Mrs. Connor took Eva’s hand. “Please don’t be angry. | will tell him to behave more carefully in front of you. Do

you like him?”

“Me?” Eva let out a laugh. “Of course not. | just want to be his friend.”

In her heart, she scoffed, “How would | like a poor nurse like Bryan? He can’t giveanything. He's perfect for

Ava. Eating a piece of bread every day won't be a problem.”

Suddenly the door opened. Ava cin with a small smile that made

Eva sick.

“Good morning, Mom.”

Eva snorted. “What tis it? Have you just had tto meet Mom? Is it because your boyfriend has already left

for the office?”

Ava’s smile faded. “Don’t make trouble with me, Eva. You al

just met Mom. We're only a few minutes apart.”

Eva took a deep breath, about to argue. However, Bryan's voice

faster than hers.

“Ava? You cto help?” The look on his face was much differen from before. His eyes seemed to sparkle. His

smile bloomed.

Ava curled her lips up again. “Yes, | can’t possibly let you work alone. Moreover, the patient is my mother.”

Bryan's laughter sounded light. “That's good. | was worried about having to do it alone. You know, physiotherapy

is not my specialty.”

“Yes, so do I.”

“But you're an all-round nurse. Physiotherapy is a small thing for you.” Bryan nodded his head, flattering.

“Wait a minute.” Eva raised one hand. “You can’t possibly forget me, right? I'm here to help too. Mom wants me

to help.”

Ava spontaneously widened her eyes. “Are you serious about helping?

“Well, | already asked Bryan. Today, Mom will practice to stand, right?

It’s not difficult.”

While Brian smiled, Ava nodded. Her chin rose, pressing against her ticklish lips.

“Okay, if you volunteer, go ahead. Bryan will guide you.”

Eva felt victorious. While she was bragging in front of her mother, Bryan raised an eyebrow at Ava. Ava shook

her head faintly.

“Just let her.”

Bryan easily received that telepathic message.

While Mrs. Connor went through a series of warm up, Eva sat there watching. She occasionally yawned. She

didn’t understand why Bryan bent her mother’s legs in several ways. She only got up from the chair when Ava

brought a standing aid. With confidence, she shifted Ava’s position.

“Okay, from now on, lettake over. Con, Mom. Lethelp

you.”

Mrs. Connor had sdifficulty shifting to the edge. Luckily, Bryan was quick to help her.

“Hold on to these two sides.” Bryan directed.

“Con, Mom. Hold on to these sides. After that, muster your

strength to stand up.” Eva pretended to know.

“Eva, you should....”

“Shhh!” Eva held up her index finger in front of Ava’s face. “You don’t need to bossaround. | know what to

do.”

Then, holding her mother’s arm, Eva said, “Con, Mom. On the count of three, use all your strength. One,

two, three.”

Instead of standing straight, Mrs. Connor slumped to the floor. Eva couldn't bear the weight. Luckily, Bryan was

on standby on the other side. While Ava put away the standing aid, Bryan lifted Mrs. Connor back onto the bed.

“Mom, I'm sorry. | got a wrong position earlier.”

“You still want to help?” Ava raised an eyebrow. “Your way is wrong.

“I said don’t control me. My legs were in the wrong position earlier. My strength wasn’t coming out. Mom, let's

try one more time.”

Unexpectedly, Mrs. Connor shook her head. Her expression was to describe. “You've done well, Darling. But |

think, let Bryan and help me. This is their job.”

Hearing that, Eva's eyes widened. “You refused my help?”

“I'm not refusing. | just don’t want to bother you. You should just rest, hmm? You must be tired from holding me

earlier.”

Eva could only pout. She returned to her chair, watching Ava work with the handsnurse. “Now Mom is

starting to side with Ava too? How annoying,” she grumbled endlessly.

However, seeing the interaction between Ava and Bryan, her irritation faded. An idea returned the light to her

eyes. ‘Does Mr. Filthy Rich.

know about Ava’s behavior behind his back?’

Smiling slyly, Eva took out her phone. Secretly, she recorded Ava’s

closeness with Bryan.
