There is no way the Liberian girl could lay eggs!

No! The severity of my situation this time is completely different from the previous ones!

Maybe you will really get beaten up like that!

After sorting out the matter, Talina discovered in despair that she couldn't escape this beating!

Closing her eyes, Talina waited for the judgment to come.

"Okay, stop pretending. Don't I know you?"

Carrying Talina into a room, Russell closed the door and put Talina on the ground.

Looking at Talina squatting on the ground with her head in her arms, Russell smiled helplessly.

Still the same as before...

"Eh? Won't mommy hit me?"

Carefully raising her head, Talina observed Russell's expression out of the corner of her eye, fearing that she would take the opportunity to pull her out of the protective shield.

"Hit you? Why would I hit you?"

Hearing Talina's question, Russell did not answer, but asked Talina back.

"I did something so willful..."

Pursing her lips, Talina tapped the ground with her toes from time to time.

Talina, who was just afraid that Russell would punish her, became uneasy after learning that she would not be punished.

Rather than this kind of pity, she hoped that Russell would give her a couple of hard hits, which would make her feel more comfortable, or what is commonly known as...itchy.

"The responsibility for this matter lies not with you, nor with the child. The one who made the most serious mistake is me."

With a sigh, Russell touched the top of Talina's head and rubbed it gently.

"If I had cared more about you, perhaps none of this would have happened, and we could still be a loving family."

"Don't say that! We are too now!"

Talina retorted to Russell, pushed his hand away and threw herself into his arms.

Feeling the petite body in his arms, Russell's eyes became moist. The emotions that had been pent up for many years suddenly surged up, making Russell's heart ache.

Fortunately, Russell was a high-ranking official after all, and he quickly calmed himself down, so he didn't make a fool of himself in front of Talina.

"By the way, where's Viviana? Why don't I see her?"

Acting coquettishly in Russell's arms, Talina suddenly looked up at Russell and asked the question that had been bothering her for a long time.

PS: There will be four updates today. Don’t worry, I will also update four times if I die suddenly.

Is 5G really that fast now? A gigabyte of data was downloaded in less than a minute, which makes me, who used to take half an hour to update Ark, look like a primitive person.

Volume 4: Chapter 48: It Seems Like an Old Friend

When we returned to Zero from a long time ago, ③Talin: Naha discovered that all the flowers in the yard had been replaced with those that were easier to care for.

The marigolds that had been carefully cared for by Viviana had all withered, and their flower beds were left empty.

If Viviana had been at home, the flowers would have been well cared for and would never have ended up like this.

"She's...not in Casimir right now."

Russell looked at Talina strangely and spoke hesitantly.

She didn't know whether she should tell Talina Viviana's specific whereabouts, so she could only answer with this ambiguous statement.

She wondered what Talina thought of Viviana now.

Are they still sisters?

Or is he an enemy?

Russell didn't know, and she didn't dare to ask. The contradictory relationship between the two children made her unsure how to start.

"Are you out? Then when will you be back?"

After hearing Russell's answer, Talina thought that Viviana had gone out for something and didn't think that she was looking for her at all.

In Talina's mind, Viviana is a very busy person. On the one hand, she is the leader of the Sanhua Knights and a hot new star among the competitive knights. On the other hand, she is the adopted daughter of the president of the Supervisory Commission and has a noble status.

Although only a few people knew about the latter, it did not prevent those who heard the news from coming to catch the news.

Before leaving Casimir, Viviana spent most of her time on these two things.

It should be about the same now, right?

"It will probably take some time. She's going quite far..."

"Is that so...Okay then..."

Not sure whether it was disappointment or relief, Talina murmured her answer.

After a few years, when she calmed down, Talina had time to think about the details of that year. There were so many good ways to deal with it, but she got carried away and chose the most irrational one.

However, Viviana felt much more relaxed without Talina, as she was not yet ready to meet her "sister".

"What about...that?"

Putting the matter aside, Talina suddenly became embarrassed.

"Which one?"

Talina's incoherent words made Russell unsure of what she meant.

"It's the one... the round one, um, with a feather on the outside."

Tilting her head to the side sheepishly, Talina described the appearance of the thing.

Russell was not stupid. After Talina reminded her, she immediately understood what Talina was talking about.

"Vivianna took it with her, and..."

Having said that, Russell paused, and after organizing his words, he looked at Talina with curiosity.

"Is that really...a child?"

Russell's tone was full of doubt. Although he had heard the news from Percy long before, it was just hearsay.

After seeing the real thing, the shock I felt was beyond words.

As a person who has lived for decades, Russell has seen countless things. What strange things has she not seen?

But she had never seen anyone lay eggs before, so it was really an eye-opener.

Not only did this go against everything she had always believed, it also made her beat up Viviana.

At that time, Russell thought that this was a trick used by Viviana to deceive him, so he was a little harsher.

"Yeah...it's just a little weird, that's all, but I promise! She's definitely a healthy baby!"

Talina, who had sufficient experience, raised her arm and seriously explained the strange knowledge to Russell.

"Alright, alright! Stop, stop, stop!"

Russell was dizzy from hearing some terms she had never heard of before. In order to avoid falling down, she quickly stopped Talina.

"That's all for today. You're all tired from the journey, so take a rest first. We'll talk again after you've rested."

After forcibly giving Talina the order, Russell walked out of the room, covering his head.

She needed time to think and accept the fact that her granddaughter was an egg.

Similarly, she had received answers from Percy and Viviana before, but that was only their one-sided account after all, and the egg had never shown any signs of life, so Russell had always been half-believing and half-doubting.

Now, with Talina's official certification, Russell has no choice but to believe it.

"Is this... Viviana's room?"

He casually made the bed, and only after Talina climbed onto it did he have the energy to observe the surroundings.

Talina was very familiar with the layout and decoration of the room. After careful observation, she realized that this was Viviana's room.

“The smell...seems to be gone..."

When she pulled the quilt to her nose, Talina did not smell the scent of marigolds. Instead, she only smelled the strange smell of laundry detergent and sun exposure.

However, Talina didn't care too much about these things. After all, Viviana's home was here, and she would come back one day. It was just a matter of time.

The fatigue accumulated on the train came all at once, and Talina's eyelids kept twitching.

With her head hung low, Talina habitually reached under the pillow and fumbled around, but couldn't find the knife for self-defense.

Just as she was about to get up and look for it, she suddenly realized.

"Yeah, I'm home."

.........

The stable environment allowed for a good sleep. When Tarina woke up again, it was already dark and she could not see anything outside the window.

Tarina quickly got up from the bed, slipping on her old slippers, and slowly came down from upstairs with sleepy eyes.

"Are you up? Come over and have dinner."

Russell, who was sitting in the living room, heard the voice and greeted Talina without even looking up.

Talina looked down and saw that Lavshini was already sitting in her seat, eating rice in small sips from her bowl, looking very restrained.

"Good~"

Talina agreed lazily and quickly went downstairs, picked up her own bowl and chopsticks, and found a seat near the back to sit down.

Outside the window, a white figure flashed by on a big tree about ten meters away from Russell's house.

"Are there any guests today?"

Sitting bored among the tree branches, Xinteleya looked at Lavshini and Russell in the house.

Because of Talina's position, she did not see Talina sitting by the wall.

"How long are you going to watch it? You have to come and see it every few days. Won't you get tired of it, Little Platinum~"

Under the tree, Roy leaned against the trunk and spread his hands, pretending to be helpless and joking: "Alas, girls like you who are deeply in love are often the most unreasonable, so I..."

Before Roy could finish, Cintrea, who was already tired of listening, turned around and jumped down. In a few jumps, she disappeared from Roy's sight.

"That's why I say~ Why bother with love? It's better to make money~"

Volume 4: Chapter 49: Joan of Arc will eat you!

"Ugh!!!"

Lying on the bed, Talina raised her buttocks high, stretched her arms forward, and stretched comfortably.

This has become her habit. She always feels uncomfortable if she doesn't do this every morning.

After washing and dressing, everything was taken care of in an orderly manner. Tarina looked at herself in the mirror and nodded with satisfaction.

"Ah! Home is still so comfortable!"

The icy cold water splashed on her cheeks, causing Talina to shiver twice and waking her up from her drowsy state.

After putting on her shoes and socks, Talina went downstairs quickly without wasting any time.

Today is a special day. It is not only her first day back home, but also her first day to reminisce with her friends.

After going downstairs, the empty room was eerily quiet. Even the humming of electrical appliances could not be heard. Talina was so scared that she quickly touched her ears.

"Mother?!!"

After looking around, Talina didn't see the familiar figure and couldn't help but shout out.

After shouting for a long time, no one responded, which made Talina feel a little strange.

Russell's working hours are around ten in the morning, but it's only seven now. Logically, he shouldn't go out, but why can't he be found anywhere?

"This is..."

As Talina walked forward and prepared to look around, she suddenly found a cup on the table.

But what attracted her was not the cup, but the note under the cup.

"I'm going out with your friend to do something. You can take care of things at home. We won't be back until the evening so you can make your own food."

These few short sentences made the meaning clear and thorough. Talina recognized it as Russell's handwriting at a glance. Only she would leave a message like this.

"Well, I have to make my own food. I haven't done it in a long time and my hands are almost rusty."
