Chapter 982

Envy

“Thank you, Mrs. Field,” Sheryn said, feeling overwhelmed by the older woman’s kindness.

She still stole a glance at Joseph from time to time. However…

He did not even spare her a glance. At that moment, he was carefully peeling shrimp for Charlotte.

It did not take long for the plate in front of Charlotte to be piled up with a mountain of food, including
shrimp, crab meat, and other dishes… Almost all of them were placed there by Joseph.

While eating her food, Charlotte mumbled, “That’s enough, Joseph. Don’t get me any more food.”

“You’re so lucky, Ms. Lynch. Mr. Joseph is so kind to you. He piles your plate for you and peels shrimp
for you. He’s too busy to eat!” Sheryn deliberately remarked casually, with a hint of envy in her gaze.

The warm atmosphere at the table suddenly became a little tense.

Ashlyn glanced at her casually. “Are you envious of them, Ms. Carling? If so, why not find a boyfriend
quickly.”

Sheryn was taken aback. She never thought that Ashlyn would take a jab at her directly. Her face
instantly flushed a crimson red, and she said in a slightly aggrieved tone, “Did I say something wrong? I
didn’t mean it…”

Her eyes were red, as if Ashlyn had bullied her. “I’m so sorry. I come from a village and lack exposure
to the outside world, so I’m not careful with my words… It’s all my fault.”

“Ashlyn… It’s all right.” Charlotte shook her head, not wanting to stoop to Sheryn’s level.

She had already seen what kind of girl Sheryn was when she was in the disaster area.



However, she never expected the latter to be one of the sponsored students and also liked to target her
in particular.

She was not sure if she was imagining things or being too sensitive, but she found that Sheryn always
liked to pay attention to Joseph.

A bold thought took shape in Charlotte’s mind.

Sheryn, who has romantic stirrings for the first time, has fallen in love with Joseph, her tall and
handsome savior.

She felt a surge of pain in her heart at the thought of Sheryn wanting to take her place in the Field
family. If Joseph gets a girlfriend or marries in the future, where would that leave me, the goddaughter
of the Field family?

She suppressed the bitterness within her and a hint of fear for the future as she once again made up
her mind.

I want to buy a house. I must have a house and family of my own. Although it’s nice living in the Field
residence as Mr. and Mrs. Field take good care of me and treat me like family, I don’t belong to this
family at the end of the day.

She felt more at ease at the thought and placed some food on Joseph’s plate in a natural manner. “Eat
more, and don’t drink so much wine during tonight’s celebration dinner. It’s not good for your stomach.”

A trace of warmth flashed across Joseph’s handsome face, and he uttered gently, “Got it.”

Ashlyn rubbed the bridge of her nose, feeling a slight headache. “Speaking of the celebration dinner,
James, can I not go tonight?”



James chuckled as he shot her a glare. “How can you not go? Those big shots are just waiting to meet
you and Lucas!”

“Such banquets are too troublesome!” Ashlyn continued eating with her head lowered. The dishes at
The Peacock were good and suited her appetite.

On the contrary, Lucas did not eat too much. He still… liked the dishes Ashlyn made for him the most.

Only those taste like home.

At this moment, a big hand grabbed hers. Lucas lowered his head and looked at her, his voice deep
and mellow as a cello playing in the middle of the night. “Is it still troublesome if I accompany you?”

Ashlyn suddenly felt a little uncomfortable.

Good gracious!

With such a gorgeous face so close that she could practically see the long eyelashes over his eyes and
the faint smirk on his lips, her heart could not help but skip a beat.

She pushed him. “Don’t get too close to me.”

Why are you flirting with me? What’s up with the head tilt, too?

Sheryn no longer dared to speak carelessly. She looked at Ashlyn and Lucas from time to time before
turning her attention to Joseph and Charlotte. Occasionally, she also cast glances at James and Fae.
