Chapter 177 The Invitation She Accepted
“Okay!” Nina agreed. From the very first time she met Jane, she felt close to her.

Not only was she not shy at all, but she even climbed onto Jane’s lap on her own and let Jane
hold her.
Jane lifted her up.
“Grandma, play toys!” Nina even invited Jane to play with her.
Jane gently shook her head. “You go play with Barry.”
Jane knew her energy was very limited. She could not keep up with two children.
Jane and Nina stayed like that for a while, and Nina was so comfortable in her arms that she didn’t want to move.
Before following Barry to the toy room, she puckered her lips and kissed Jane on the cheek. “Grandma, Nina go now!”
After the kiss, Nina waved her chubby little hand and ran off with Barry.
Jane watched Nina’s small retreating back, her gaze lingering for a long time.
“Emma, when I hold her, it feels like I’m holding my Mia,” Jane murmured softly. “My Mia was just as adorable.”
She was talking about the real Mia.
The love flowing in her eyes at that moment was meant entirely for the real Mia.
Seeing her sink into memories, Emma immediately reached out and held her hand.
“Jane. Your Mia is right in front of you. She’s still very lovely now. Look at her…” Emma gently guided Jane to look at the Mia sitting in front of her.
Mia pressed her lips together and adjusted her expression, forcing herself not to think about Nina from just now.
Ever since Jane fell ill, she had rarely grown close to anyone.
She also couldn’t see other people’s children.
Seeing children would stimulate her.

Even Barry, who lived in the same house, rarely interacted with her.

Yet Nina had been called over by Jane on her own initiative and even held in her arms. This made Mia’s dislike for Nina grow even stronger.
She felt that everyone in the Wilson family seemed to have no resistance at all to that annoying little girl.
Barry had clearly fought with Nina before. How had those two made up so quickly? Mia could not understand it.
While Mia was still struggling with her thoughts, voices came from the toy room. “Wow!” Nina exclaimed again. “So many toys!”
Barry said proudly, “Yeah! Pick whatever you want.
Nina was not polite at all. When people gave her toys, she really took them.
“Big dino!” Nina said.
Barry said, “Mm! This dinosaur can move. My aunt gave it to me!”
“Nina like dino!”
“Then I’ll give it to you!”
“Barry, truck!”
“Mm! This is a voice-controlled truck!”,
“Nina like!”
“Then that’s yours too!”
Every time Barry gave her a toy, Nina rewarded him with a hug and an enthusiastic “I love you.”
Drowned in Nina’s praise, Barry was completely carried away.
He even went to find a big bag and started packing toys for Nina.
The two little ones played together happily, without needing any adult involvement at all.
Seeing that Nina would still be busy packing toys for a while, Benjamin took the invitation card and personally handed it to Jane.
“Mrs. Wilson, there will be a gathering for Nina in a couple of days.

“I hope you can find time to come by then.

“Nina likes you very much. She would definitely want to see you at the party.”

As soon as Benjamin finished speaking, Emma cut in to decline, “Benjamin, thank you for the invitation, but Jane isn’t well enough to go out. She needs to rest and recover-”
“I’ll go,” Jane suddenly interrupted Emma.
She took the invitation and said firmly, “I’ll be there.”
Benjamin replied, “Nina will be waiting for you.”
After delivering the invitation, Benjamin didn’t go back to look for Nina.
He sat down on the sofa, as if he wanted to rest for a bit.
With him sitting there, Emma could feel the tension in the room rise.
