274 It’s You

Keira arrived at her room to find Howard’s mother waiting by the door.

She hastened her steps and frowned. “Is Amy asleep?”

“She’s asleep.”

Howard’s mother’s eyes flickered, and she suddenly took out Amy’s milk bottle. “Tonight, Amy refused to drink his milk. Taste it and see if it has soured or gone bad!”

Keira narrowed her eyes, sensing there was a problem.

She removed her mask, opened the bottle, and tilted her head back to drink without letting the bottle touch her lips, to prevent bacterial infection. After taking a sip, she carefully savored it. “It’s not spoiled.”

“Is that so?” Howard’s mother waved her hand. “Maybe she’s full and doesn’t want any more. If not, we might have to switch to another brand… Drink the rest

hungry now.

She asked with downcast eyes, “Has Mrs. Horton been

Howard’s mother said impatiently, “She’s been buried. Why are you asking so many questions? Do you really think you’re Mrs. Horton’s high school classmate? You’re really getting into character! Just drink the milk and stop dawdling!”

Keira’s eyes flickered, and she finished the milk in a few gulps, preparing to take it into her room to wash the bottle.

Before she could push the door open, Howard’s

mother snatched the bottle away and said with a smile! “I’ll wash it. You’ve been tired all day. Go to bed!”

After saying that, she took the bottle back to her own

room.

There definitely was a problem!

Howard’s mother was never usually so eager to help.
