Chapter 95

“I’m looking for Harper. Where is he?”

“He is away on a business trip, so I don’t think he is around today. By the way, who is the man who gave you a lift, Miss Lynwood? Could he be your boyfriend?” The woman nodded in a preoccupied manner.

“No.” Elspeth blushed, becoming speechless at once.

“Come on, I’m already a mother of two kids. Do you think I can’t tell what that little gesture meant? Miss Lynwood, that man seems like a decent person. Why don’t you give him a chance?”
