Capítulo 61: That was close

"Where are you lost, princess? Don't you like the food?" Richard noticed Eveline's preoccupied self and inquired. 

Richard arrived early at the house because he was unable to meet Eveline yesterday or in the morning today. They had a great conversation during which she told him about how excited she was for sports day and how exhausting practice was for her.

Richard knew that Eveline was a competitive individual who enjoyed pushing herself to the utmost in both athletics and academia.

"Yes, Eveline, tell me why you are not eating. Do you want me to ask the cook to prepare something else for you?" Belle asked.

Eveline shook her head, staring at the two of them, completely speechless.

"No, Aunty, that is okay," she said to Belle before turning to face Richard and remarking,

"Uncle, I already like this food." She dismissed both of their worries with a smile and began to eat the food.
