Chapter 1195 Time is Running Out

Since that day, the manor's been pretty chill.

Amanda's been looking after Joe herself and stopped bugging Sadie to hang out with him.

But Amanda still finds time to play with the kids, teaching them to paint and whipping up cute desserts.

All the kids except Noah seem to dig her.

Time dragged on in these busy but uneventful days, and before they knew it, there were only three days left until Sadie and Micah's agreed date. Sadie watched the days tick by, feeling more and more bummed out because there was no word from Newark.
