Chapter 835
The boy shook his head and sighed. "I'm jealous of you."
That only made Jewel more perplexed. "What for?"
Carter shook his head and exaggerated, "I'm jealous because you can see a pretty girl every day!" Jewel was taken
aback, and it took her a while to figure out that he was referring to her. She rubbed his head and chirped, "Why are
you such a sweetheart?"
He propped his chin adorably. "I probably had too many sweets growing up!"
As soon as his words fell, it prompted laughter from people around them.
It was human nature to love compliments. Not only was Carter good at praising others, but he was also one of the
rare people who could dish out compliments in a creative manner.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtOlivia looked around him and found no supervising adult, so she asked out of curiosity, "Whom did you come with?
Do you not have anyone with you?"
He thought about it and guessed, "Do you mean those people?" He pointed his tiny finger in a direction.
Wow!
There stood four bodyguards clad in black, along with a woman, whom Olivia assumed to be Carter's assistant.
His crew reminded her of the little boy she met back at Promise Island. Back then, the boy was probably annoyed
when she disturbed him and ordered his bodyguards to show up. The boy from the island was around the same age
as Carter, but he was definitely colder than this sweetheart before her.
At last, she was relieved to learn that he had adult supervision.
"There's an opening ceremony later. Just follow me around."
"Okay, Mom!"
She was completely smitten with the little boy and reached out to give him a pinch on his smooth cheek. Up until
the opening ceremony at noon, she had been taking care of him. She even held his hand and walked him down the
red carpet.
While the others were busy staring and waving at cameras on the red carpet, only Olivia and Carter were focused
on each other. She lowered her gaze to look at him with a tender smile, whereas he lifted his head to return the
glance adorably. Although none of them were looking straight at the camera, they gave off a familial vibe.
Still, their interactions did not go unnoticed by the eagle-eyed media. Putting aside Olivia's fame, even her beauty
was enough to be turned into news.
After signing and descending from the stage, Sean beamed at them. "Such a perfect pair of mother-and-son in the
show! I start to think that you do resemble each other."
She was glad to hear that and stole a glance at Carter. "Is that so? Yes, this is my son indeed."
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmCarter was smiling back at her, his eyes turning into a crescent shape. Subsequently, he called out to her in an
endearing way, "Mom!"
At that, everyone laughed as the mother-and-son pair became the limelight of the opening ceremony.
The next day, all papers were reporting on the opening ceremony of Virtue in Green as well as the dinner party at
night. Not only was the public interested in the show itself, but they were also attracted to Olivia and Carter's
interactions.
She was featured in five out of six photos of the ceremony. Aside from a group photo of the cast and a photo
featuring the 'family' comprised of Olivia, Eric, and Carter, the rest of the photos were focused on Carter and her.
There was even one clip of their red carpet walk.
From their sweet and loving interaction, anyone could tell that she really liked the boy. Everyone loved Carter,
especially because of his smooth talk. He could easily flatter anyone while convincing them that he was speaking
the truth as an innocent child.
However, they were also aware that his words might be a deliberate choice.
North saw the news article while having a seafood dinner with Eugene. He was stuffed while lying on the couch and
checking Twitter when he came across the article. Then, he flashed a wide grin. "Mommy is so pretty."
