The woman on the sofa put down the apple she was munching on when she saw Maja.

Daly and Susan wore awkward expressions on their faces but remained silent.

“Definitely. Her mom passed away years ago. Men are just like that, they find a prettier woman, and they forget about their ex-wife.”

Maja frowned.
