Chapter 19

“Walt… What! Cheated on you?” Lisa couldn’t believe her eyes when she heard about what happened between her brother and his wife.

“Dad… Don’t tell me you believe that crappy story… Summer is the last person who would do something like that to my brother. She loves him, and she’s not like that,” Lisa defended her.
