Chapter 640

Keith's eyes twinkled with mischief before he broke into a grin and asked, "So, you've mistaken me for Elijah's dad, huh?"

Elysia felt her cheeks burn with embarrassment.

Keith's laughter softened the awkward moment. "Seems like Ms. Thorne has fallen for him. That's great. He is the kids' father, after all. If you two got together, it would be like a family reunion. Best wishes to you both."

"Our family situation is a bit... complicated," Elysia managed to say.
