Chapter 1952: 555: Falling off the horse live, breaking down!_4
"Not even a dog would believe that." Viola Thompson gave him a sideways glance.
With a smile in his eyes, Terrence Lentz said, "If I were to explain now, would you say I’m trying to cover up?"
Suddenly, the atmosphere seemed a bit off.
Just as Viola Thompson was about to say something, the doorbell rang again.
The words that blurted out of Viola Thompson’s mouth turned into, "Go answer the door."
Terrence Lentz obediently went to open the door.
The housekeeper stood at the door, "Sir, your delivery has arrived, shall I bring it to your room?"
Thinking of the siren in casual home wear inside the room, Terrence Lentz then said, "No need, I’ll take it myself."
After saying that, Terrence Lentz took the food cart from the housekeeper’s hands, "I’ll call you if I need anything."
The housekeeper nodded and turned to leave.
Terrence Lentz pushed the food cart next to Viola Thompson, "Master, the delivery is here."
Viola Thompson immediately put down her phone she was gaming on, "That was quick?"
"Why did you order so much?" Terrence Lentz was curious.
This was really not Viola Thompson’s style.
She had always been economical.
Viola Thompson then said, "We’ll eat some of it, and some of it will go to Jenkin and the others."
Jenkin was Viola Thompson’s assistant.
Upon hearing this, Terrence Lentz nodded slightly, "Then I’ll ask the housekeeper to come up again."
"Sure."
Viola Thompson picked out some of their favorite foods to keep, and the rest was sent to Jenkin and the others by the housekeeper.
The two then sat on the chairs in front of the floor-to-ceiling windows, eating and chatting.
Somehow, as they talked, the topic shifted to how many children they wanted in the future.
Viola Thompson said, "I think we could have two children, one boy and one girl to make it perfect."
Terrence Lentz, however, had a different idea, "Not two boys, two daughters."
He preferred daughters over sons.
Best would be one like him and one like Viola Thompson, that would be even better.
Hearing this, Viola Thompson laughed and said, "What if both are boys?"
Terrence Lentz frowned subtly.
He had never really thought about this issue.
Viola Thompson continued, "Your uncle and aunt don’t have a daughter, my parents had three sons, and I’m the only daughter; my two uncles also don’t have daughters, so I think there’s a higher chance of us having boys."
Before, Viola Thompson had never thought about getting married and having children, but now, thinking of this scene made her feel very warm.
Having children with someone you love is a very happy thing.

Eva Webster had been staying in Kenny’s private villa these past few days.
Having someone attend to her every need each day gave Eva Webster a strong sense of superiority.
But Eva Webster soon realized this was not the right behavior; she and Kenny weren’t legally married yet, and if this continued, what if Kenny started to resent her?
With this thought, Eva Webster immediately stood up from the sofa, ready to tell Kenny that she was leaving.
Just then, Kenny walked in.
"My dear."
Although they had lived together for about ten days, Kenny’s enthusiasm towards Eva Webster was undiminished, always warmly calling her ’my dear.’
Eva Webster smiled and said, "Kenny, I need to talk to you about something."
"What is it?"
As soon as he finished speaking, Kenny’s phone started ringing.
Kenny answered the call, "Hello."
It was unclear what the other party said, but his expression changed, "How could this happen?"
"I’ll find a way immediately, don’t panic!"
After hanging up the phone, Eva Webster immediately asked, "Dear, what happened?"
"It’s nothing." Kenny pretended as if nothing had happened.
Eva knew that Kenny must have encountered something very urgent. Since they were now a couple, they had to face difficulties together.
This was also a good opportunity for her to show her worth in front of Kenny.
Eva continued, "Kenny, I’ve already given you the most important things, is there anything you can’t tell me? It really upsets me when you act like this!"
Hearing this, Kenny sighed, "Eva, I just don’t want you to worry as well."
"But not telling me makes me worry even more." Upon saying that, Eva walked up to Kenny and hugged him, "Kenny, we are one now, I want to face all difficulties together with you!"
Kenny then said, "Actually, it’s not a big deal. The call just now was from my dad’s assistant. He said that a batch of our family goods were seized by our competitors during transport, and we now need some cash flow, but my dad got trapped by someone else’s scheme, and all his money has been frozen by the bank."
"What should we do then?" Eva was very anxious upon hearing this.
Kenny comforted her, "Don’t panic, I may not have liquid funds right now, but I can sell properties. I own several properties in Capital City, though it’s tough to sell them in a hurry, I can definitely sell them if I price them below the market!"
Below market price?
With Eva there, she definitely wouldn’t let that happen.
After all, what belonged to Kenny was hers.
Eva then asked, "How much money do you need right now?"
"1 million dollars." Kenny answered.
"1 million dollars," Eva hesitated for a moment, then continued, "Dear, I just happen to have 1 million dollars with me right now, how about I give it to you?"
Although his goal was achieved, Kenny still wanted to fish for bigger gains, "No, your mother and brother already suspect I’m a swindler, wouldn’t me using your money at this time further confirm their suspicions?"
"It’s okay," Eva smiled and said, "Kenny, now that I believe in you, that’s enough."
Her mother and Liam Webster were the real fools.
Eva trusted her own judgment.
She believed even more in the steadfast love between her and Kenny.
Eva then said, "Kenny, I am willing to walk this toughest path with you."
After this path, Kenny will love her even more.
After all, how many women in this world could do what she did?
It seems she was born to be a noble lady!
"Thank you." Kenny hugged Eva, moved to tears.
Eva immediately transferred all the balance in her card to Kenny.
Kenny was very touched, and looking at Eva said, "Eva, to thank you, I’ve got a secret to tell you."
"Go ahead."
Kenny continued, "I currently have a risk-free investment project. With an investment of fifteen million, you can earn back ten or twenty times the amount in one month!"
"Really?" Eva’s eyes lit up.
Kenny nodded, "I wouldn’t lie to you. Dear, normally we don’t involve people from other countries in this project, but you are different to me, just go and talk properly with your brother, if he is willing to invest, I can make an exception for him! But, you have to promise, you can’t tell anyone, because this is our family’s secret to richness!"
Hearing this, Eva was thrilled and hugged Kenny, "Thank you, Kenny!"
Although Eva also hated her mother and brother.
But just thinking about the huge change in Liam Webster’s attitude after he makes money from this, she was extremely excited.
At that time, she would settle old scores with Liam Webster.
Kenny smiled and said, "Eva, do we still need to thank each other now? You quickly go and talk to your brother about this. If he agrees, I’ll operate immediately and let him invest."
"Okay." Eva nodded, at this moment, she had not yet realized that she was about to face a complete loss of both money and trust.
