Chapter 61:

Connor saved the photo he had just taken on his phone and said flatly, “Grandma wants to see this.”

Marissa’s lips twitched. He was using his grandmother to manipulate her again. Typical! Annoyed by his excuse but unable to challenge him directly, she glared silently. The two of them fell into silence; Marissa stared out the window while Connor fiddled with his phone. With her back to him, she didn’t see him placing two photos side by side and scrutinizing them intently. One photo was of Riss, taken during Caylee’s emergency surgery in the operating room. The other was of Marissa, which Connor had just captured

Ever since he met Riss yesterday, Connor had felt that she seemed familiar. Reflecting on it later, he noticed that Riss’s profile resembled Marissa’s.
