Chapter 23

“Luna, Lili’s timid and shy, so you’ve got to treat her well. Don’t disappoint me.”

I wouldn’t disappoint him, but he had really disappointed me.

I wasn’t that kind of person, but I was really disappointed.

I said, “Okay.”

Uncle Austin and Aunt Mel probably knew about Lilac’s family and were very unhappy about it. When

dinner started, they kept plying me with food while ignoring Lilac completely.

Lilac shrank back helplessly in her seat while Felix continuously comforted her in a low voice.
