Lucius fed Villy gently, holding the fork steady while she leaned in and took a bite.
She chewed quietly before swallowing with a soft sigh of satisfaction… and that was all Vanessa needed to see.
'She wants him too,' Vanessa thought bitterly.
The way Villy's eyes stayed on him between bites said everything.
The faint pink on her cheeks, her small smiles… it was obvious.
At least from her point of view, she didn't know if the others could see it the way she saw it…
Vanessa clenched her fork.
She would have preferred being the one sitting on Lucius's lap, not watching someone else enjoy it.
She forced a polite smile and turned her head, glancing toward Emilia.
Her sister wasn't even eating.
Emilia's gaze was sharp and locked on Lucius like a hawk.
Vanessa frowned.
'Why's she angry?'
Something must have happened after she fell asleep.
Emilia's usual carefree face was tight and her jaw was clenched, she looked like Lucius like he had offended her.
