Chapter 106

Abby was about to say Nora’s name when she suddenly remembered her appointment with Uncle Cole the other day.

She was not to mention Aunt Nora’s name in front of anyone else!

Ella bit her lip and flung herself into Cole’s arms without speaking.

Arnold, perceptive as ever, noticed Cole’s unnatural behavior, but didn’t press for anything more.

approach.

Instead, he simply observed, waiting for Cole to either confess or compose himself.
