Heartbreak Brings Mr. Right by PASSION

Chapter 688

Sumner, feeling Lindsey’s intense gaze for the first time, couldn’t meet her eyes.

He looked away, asking quietly, “Why are you staring at me like that? Is there something on my face?”

Lindsey’s eyes flickered with uncertainty.

“Sumner, what’s your mother’s maiden name?”

Sumner was puzzled by her sudden interest in his mother.

He shrugged and said, “I’m not sure.

My godparents rarely spoke of her.

They just said she died in an accident.

I’ve asked them, but they always hesitate, like there’s something they’re not telling me.

Sometimes, I wonder if there was more to my mom’s death, and that’s why they’re so secretive.

”

Sumner’s confirmation left Lindsey’s suspicion hanging in the air.

“Why’d you bring this up all of a sudden?” Sumner asked, a puzzled look on his face.

Lindsey, without hesitation, asked, “Remember what Ms.

Garcia said earlier? Is Everleigh Pearson your mom?”
