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.

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.
