Chapter 67

“Susan, you misunderstand me too often, don’t you?” Natalie gave a sarcastic laugh as she took back her phone. “Why are you so nervous? Are you worried I’ll misunderstand your relationship with the father and son?”

Susan’s heart skipped a beat but she valiantly kept a straight face. “No, I’m not worried, but they are related to me. He is a distant cousin of mine and that is his son. The child is sick so I brought them here for him to seek treatment.”
