Chapter 490 People Think I Am Her Daughter

The sight of her unsettled me again. Nevertheless, it would be bad manners not to greet her still. As a result, I braced myself and approached her.

“Mrs. Campbell, I’m surprised to see that you’re still here. I thought you would have already left,” I remarked cordially. “It’s been a long while since I last visited. Hence, we have a lot to catch up on. How was shopping?”

Alicia was all smiles the moment she saw me. The tone she used sounded as if she knew me very well.

“Erm, it was hot outside, so we didn’t want to stay out for too long and decided to come home instead,” I simply explained.

Deep down, I was reluctant to interact with her.

“After shopping for the entire morning, I’m feeling exhausted. Mrs. Campbell, please carry on chatting with Mom. I’ll be going upstairs to get some rest.”

Wanting to avoid her intense gaze, I decided not to linger in the living hall. After all, she was here to see Josephine. At that moment, Michael put his arm around my waist and planned to go upstairs together with me.

“By the way, Anna, can I invite you to visit my place when you’re free?”

Just when I was about to ascend the stairs, Alicia’s voice rang out as she looked at me with anticipation.

Stunned by her sudden invitation, I didn’t know how to react. Somehow, I felt something was amiss when she invited me to her home, but I just couldn’t pinpoint what it was.

Under normal circumstances, one would only invite someone over when one liked the person a lot or if that person was very close.

Considering that we have only met twice and barely talked to each other, her invitation couldn’t help but arouse my suspicion.
