Such a finely crafted man–pity his heart’s pitch black.

“Mr. Sutton, you probably don’t know me. I’m Reenie’s friend. Do me a favor,” Katherine stared straight at him, “Be nice to our Reenie. She doesn’t owe you anything!”

Geoffrey didn’t know Katherine at first.

But when he had someone investigate Maureen before, he checked her out too, so he remembered what she looked

like.

“Instead of worrying about our business, you’d better focus on your own studies and stop getting caught.”

He parted his thin lips slightly.

Katherine choked up.

Is he talking about the time she was locked up last time?

This man is so annoying!

It pissed her off!

Geoffrey entered the ward, leaving her with a receding back she couldn’t catch up to.

She was sure now that Jacob was really his son. Sometimes he could say things just as infuriating.

Now she just hoped Jacob wouldn’t become a bad man like Geoffrey, sharp–tongued and scheming.

When Katherine got into the car, she didn’t expect a little head to pop out.

“Aunt Katherine, how’s my mommy?”

Jacob looked worried.

Katherine was startled: “Weren’t you supposed to be at kindergarten?”

Jacob felt helpless; he’d been hiding in the car so long without her noticing.

“I heard you calling Mom this morning and got worried, so I snuck in.”

“You little rascal! Never do this again–it’s dangerous.”

Katherine buckled him into the car seat before driving to kindergarten.
