My Powerful CEO Husband

Chapter 717

Ch. 717 / 753 Jan 28, 2026

Yen did not expect that he had been in the Mansion for a week.

With her company, Old Master condition was getting better by the day. Her injured body had also been nursed by the nutrition masters of the Mansion. Eva's constitution was already too strong, so it seemed that she had recovered very easily.

It was just a wound on the heart... Taking advantage of Old Master's nap, Yuan did a walk in the huge courtyard of the Mansion.

Two whistles came from one of the horn corners. Yuan did not know which horn it came from, but when he looked over, he saw that the roses on the wall were blooming.

In the Mansion which was full of noble flowers and plants, it was really pleasing to see such a large wall of roses.

Or maybe it's a bird, but I actually heard it as a whistle?

Whoosh..." Another whistle came, followed by a low male voice, "Eva, this place... looks over here."

Yen fixed his eyes on the source of the voice and saw the rose flowers all over the wall poking half of its head out. Without even looking at its face, Yen could already tell who it was from that voice.

Yen did not move a single glance at Gavin. He turned around and was about to leave.

"Eva... Don't go... I have something to tell you... Eva..."

Behind him came Gavin's low voice.

This week, in order to enter the Mansion to visit, Gavin really worried about his filial piety. Unfortunately, the Mansion was too strict. Gavin had been in the Mansion for thirty-two years, but he had not been able to escape once.

Of course, it would be even more impossible for him to climb in.

"Gavin, if you keep sneaking around like this, I'm going to tell the Old Master," Eva replied in a stern voice.

"Eva, can't I be the one to make a mistake earlier? I apologize to you..."

There were times when Gavin admitted defeat. In the past few days, he no longer slept in the tent outside the Mansion.

Because the case proved that no matter how he played the battered-body trick this time, Elder had already made up his mind to ignore him!

Whether it was hunger or cold, being wet in the rain, and so on, Elder Master turned a blind eye to them!

Therefore, Gavin had to ask Eva for help!

A real man knows when to yield. Gavin didn't want to apologize to a girl.

"You don't have to apologize to me! When I inherit the old master's inheritance and chase you out of the house, we'll be even!"

Eva had been playing the role of a sinister and ruthless person in front of Gavin. Perhaps in Gavin's heart, he could even more accept a greedy woman who was full of evil intentions.

"You can take this inheritance if you want! I only care about my grandfather's condition..."

Maybe a few days ago, Gavin indignantly scolded Eva for being mean and vicious. But these days, he finally understood that his own grandfather would not leave the Bai Family's fortune to his grandson, but to Eva, an outsider!

"..." Hearing Gavin's words, Eva was stunned instead. "Does this stubborn playboy know that I'm just venting my anger on him?"

"Eva, how's my grandfather's condition? Thanks to you for taking care of him these days! Thank you for doing my duty as a son!"

This time, Gavin's mouth became sweeter. Instead of scolding Eva, he was complimenting her.

The words "thank you for your filial piety" made Yuan did not feel happy in her heart. She was an orphan and had always been lonely. There was not even a person who wanted to be filial obedient. Now, she could only hope that she could do this for others.

Eva thought, "After Old Master's condition stabilizes, she'll sell her own house and move back to the welfare home to be a volunteer."

If she was destined to be alone all her life, she might as well accompany the group of children who needed help.

"I'm not doing filial duty for you. I just want to get some benefits from your grandfather! You said that I've tried so hard to serve Grandpa. Can Grandpa let me go back empty- handed? I'm thinking that Grandpa can give me more money!"

Yen did not like to make fun of himself. She would rather see Gavin despise and despise her than see him sympathize with her.

Ever since she was young, Eva had received far too many sympathetic glances and words. What she did not need to see, and what she feared the most, was the sympathy that other people had for her.

That kind of feeling was not good!

"Since you love money so much... why did you donate the money I gave you to the welfare home?"

Gavin didn't know why this woman was self- depreciating herself again and again. But he could still vaguely feel that Eva was not the physical woman she had described herself in her mouth!

Eva was stunned. "How does he know? He has investigated the whereabouts of the ten- million-yuan team."

"What does the gold-digger like to do the most? She's so pretentious!" Eva was still self-deprecation.

"Come on, don't make fun of yourself... I beg you to do something: Go and flirt with grandpa, be cute, let grandpa put me in to see him! I have not seen my own grandpa for ten days, and I want to die!"

Gavin was really anxious. Since he was young, he had been living under the protection of Grandfather. He was really afraid that Grandfather would suddenly leave him one day... He really didn't dare to think about it!

"You think too highly of me! Butler has pleaded for you... Grandpa got angry as soon as he heard your name. You'd better not come in and provoke him!"

Eva was telling the truth. In fact, she also wanted to resolve the estrangement between Gavin and Old Master. Everything was caused by her selfish desire to give birth to the child in her belly. She really wanted to make up for something.

"Eva, Butler told me that Grandpa listens to you the most... Since you can even coax him to have a medicinal meal, what else can't you do?"

Gavin sniffed the heavier and heavier nose. "Eva, just take it as pitying me... I and Grandfather have depended heavily on each other since I was young. If one day... One day Grandfather had some mishaps... I don't want to live either!"

Before she could finish, Gavin started sobbing. "I'm really afraid that I'll lose him one day... then I'll really be an orphan! I might as well die with him..."

"Gavin, what are you talking about? You're so young. What kind of nonsense are you spouting!"

Seeing Gavin crying so sadly, Yen did not feel happy at all. "Okay, I'll go and tell grandpa now. You wait for a moment."

"Thank you, Eva... Thank you so much for helping me instead of venging me!"

Gavin's face was covered with both tears and snot, and he looked especially sincere.

"Well, then wait a minute. I'll go in and see it Grandpa has woken up."

Eva was a kind-hearted person. She could not stand Gavin's tears and could not bear to see a man howling and wailing.
