MISTAKE 159

Chapter 159: Richard's desire.

By the time Emma was done in the kitchen, Richard had already put him to sleep. She scrolled through her phone while she waited for him to dry himself off. Now on the net, she could read the comments made about her..

She noticed that at first people cursed at her. Then their tune changed quickly. Many bad comments seemed to have been deleted too.

"What scumbag? Her luck was horrible; she married a family of scumbags."

"That witch even laid her hands on that child. And that is her own grandson."

"I sell shoes. One dollar a pair. DM me for details"

"Why do I feel there is more to this? Why hate your own grandson this way; is he not her grandson?"

"In the comment above, people like you are a problem. Even if what you are saying is true, does that mean she can harm the child?"
