CHAPTER 31: CHAPTER 31: DIFFERENT TREATMENT

The old lady was still quite good to her; her grandmother had cared for her a lot since she was young. However, due to her old age, even though she still held the position of the Nightingale Family matriarch, she couldn’t make any major decisions. Therefore, she was unable to stop Eva Nightingale from being kicked out of the house.

Eva was busy on set until 6 in the evening before her scenes were finally wrapped up.

Meanwhile, Isabelle Nightingale, being the leading actress, was so arrogant that she went straight up to Eva and challenged her, "Eva Nightingale, don’t act all high and mighty in front of me, I’m warning you!"

"I’m not done with the incident at the hotel last time."

At that time, Eva had pushed her hard, causing her to fall, spraining her ankle badly.

Eva responded, "Well then... let’s wait and see!"

Last time, Isabelle had it coming. Why did she bring trouble to herself? Eva only regretted not going harder on her.

"You!" Isabelle’s face turned green with anger, "Hmph, let’s wait and see!" With the support from the Nightingale Family and the Grant Family, was she really afraid she couldn’t outdo Eva?!

"Leading actress, Isabelle Nightingale," the assistant director shouted through a megaphone, urging her, "We’re rolling, hurry over."

"Alright, coming," Isabelle answered, shooting Eva a disdainful glance, "Hmph, let’s wait and see!"

After throwing the insult, she hurried back to the set.

Eva glanced up at the set, took in the sight for a moment, then withdrew her gaze and left in the nanny car to return to Villa No. 8.

On the way, she watched the scenery flash by outside the window.

Amos Nightingale’s bias towards Isabelle Nightingale wasn’t a new thing. This time, he even conspired with the Grant Family before the media to snatch the lead role for Isabelle. His heart was truly ruthless. What was it made of?

Both being daughters of the Nightingale Family, this was excessively unfair.

However, it seemed she had gotten used to it.

After dinner, she finally saw Lucas Knight.

It was already ten at night.

He entered the villa, carrying a strong chilling aura.

Eva asked in surprise, "Hubby... where have you been?"

"Have you eaten?"

"I have," Lucas Knight came in, sitting on the sofa, "I was taking care of some matters."

Due to his injury, his shoulder was wrapped in thick bandages, making it inconvenient to wear formal attire, so he wore a robe instead, with a loosely tied belt, looking lazy and casual.

Sitting like that on the sofa, he was very alluring.

"I’m going to take a bath," he said, "want to join me?"

Eva: Bathe together?

Better not!!

Thinking this, she glanced at him again, at the black robe on his body.

"What are you looking at?"

"I’m not... not looking at anything!" She immediately averted her gaze.

"..." He curled his lips, his deep, elongated phoenix eyes narrowing, dazzling like obsidian, yet dangerous.

Eva took a bath herself and then lay down on the big bed.

She planned to rest early after a tiring day on set, but Lucas Knight still sat by the floor-to-ceiling window.

She didn’t know why, but his presence in the room made her feel a bit pressured!!

He was looking down at a laptop in front of him, his long and slender fingers dancing across the keyboard, producing a series of light tapping sounds.

"What, can’t sleep?"

He asked her without lifting his head.

Eva: "..."

She didn’t say anything, curious about how he knew she couldn’t sleep.

Before she could say anything, he closed the laptop and stood up. His tall and upright figure sat down on the edge of the bed, and with an enticing voice that was extremely seducing, he said, "Can’t sleep alone, hmm?"

"Want me to sleep with you?"

She had slept with him many nights, knowing that she liked to kick the covers and hug things while sleeping.

Eva was about to refuse, but he had already lifted the covers and got into the bed, extending his long arms to pull her into his embrace. His pleasant voice fell again, "I’ll stay with you."
