Love Beyond the Mask by Adelaide Sinclair

Chapter 1031

Was it all about her secret whereabouts today?

The two little rascals, dodging and weaving in front of her, talking about her skills in holistic medicine. It surely wasn't about helping Phineas, or why not just come out with it? So, who needed saving?

Whitney furrowed her brows, deciding to keep her cool. She glanced at the two bodyguards beside the car, squinted her eyes, and smiled playfully, "Alright, my little munchkins, I'm not about to lock you up, but you've got to be careful, especially these days. Try not to go out if it's not necessary."

"Oh! Okay, mommy, we'll do just that."

Sammy immediately played the good kid, afraid of arousing more suspicion from mommy. He took her hand.

Danny let out a silent sigh of relief. "Mommy, can we go home now? I'm starving. I want your famous sweet soup, with grilled cheese sandwiches, and blueberry pudding!"

Whitney glanced at him, a smile playing on her lips. "Have you guys not eaten all day while you were out?"

Danny shot Sammy a look.

They had been guarding their little sister, too focused to even think about food.

He was anxious, hoping mommy would buy their 'explanation.'

Things at home would get better. Mommy might be upset, but seeing a lively and fresh little baby, she'd eventually come to accept her.

The fear was, what if their sister couldn't make it...
