Transmigrating Into A Villain novel Chapter 21

When passing by Sheffield's room, Alina slowed down and secretly turned the handle of the door. She pushed the door but didn't open it.

She was surprised. Was the door locked on purpose?

'Isn't it a little harsh for him? After all, he is just a teenager.'

Finding that the door couldn't be opened, Alina stopped and went into her bedroom.

Sheffield hadn't eaten for over a day. She would feel hungry without a meal, so she could imagine how he was feeling now.

After thinking for a while, Alina took a shower and went downstairs.

Wendy was not in the living room. She saw Peter was telling the servants to place the tableware. She went to him and said that she wanted to say something to him.

When they walked to a place where there was no one else, Alina asked in a low voice, "Peter, has Sheffield not eaten anything all day today?"

"Yes, the master told us not to give the young master anything to eat," answered Peter, glancing at her with a look of vigilance.

"He has been hungry all day long? Can I go in and see him?"

"I'm afraid you can't do that. You have to get the consent of the master or madam," Peter refused.

Alina didn't dare to ask Wendy. So she could only ask Eric. After all, they were father and son. No matter what the son did, the father could not really hate him.

"Thank you, Peter. I see. By the way, I have an exam this week, and I will study late these two days. Could you please prepare some meatballs for me tonight?"

"Of course. My pleasure."

"Thank you so much! Is Dad back now?"

"The master came back at noon, but then he went out for business."

Now that Eric was not at home, she would talk to him after he came back. Alina went back to her room to study and wait.

An hour later, Peter knocked on the door and asked Alina to have dinner. He told Alina that the master was back.

Upon hearing this, Alina put down her book and went downstairs.

"Dad, you are back." When seeing Eric sitting in the living room, Alina ran towards him happily.

Hearing that, Eric smiled gently, "Alaina, how is your study recently? Have you had a good time at school? Did anyone bully you? If yes, tell me. I'll deal with them!"

Alina raised her head and said proudly, "I'm doing great at school. Those students dare not bully me!"

"Ha-ha... My daughter indeed!" Looking at her pretty and charming face, Eric smiled with great satisfaction.

"What are you talking about? You two look so happy." With a big smile on her face, Wendy walked in with a bunch of newly cut roses in her hand.

"Mom, what are you doing here? It's late at night. Why do you need so many flowers? Are they for Dad?"

Wendy wore a house dress, with a long sweater over it. She took a glance at Eric, and then turned to Alaina, "You are a busybody! Isn't it time for dinner? Go wash your hands!"

"Yes, madam!" Alina smiled and went to wash her hands.

Eric was fond of the appearance and gentleness of Wendy. Wendy had specially dressed herself up today and looked more beautiful against the light and flowers. Eric looked at her and felt excited.
