Mary immediately frowned and looked at her.

Keira pursed her lips, trying to make her gaze seem

Keira was dumbfounded.

For them, you actually abandoned me… Forget it, let’s not talk about it. It makes me feel so sad!”

She was genuinely aggrieved!

Mary pouted.

Keira wasn’t good at comforting others, so she remained silent. Just then, the sound of the door opening was heard, and Howard’s mother walked in.

Humming a tune from a dance, she didn’t look toward the living room as she entered but headed straight for the kitchen. “Keera, what’s for dinner? I’m hungry after
