Chapter 574

Wiona couldn't quite put a name to the feeling swirling inside her.

If it weren't for Brooks, she'd probably really like this girl.

But, there's no "if" in real life...

As she lowered her gaze, she accidentally met Brooks' eyes.

The look he shot her a teasing, half-smile-made Wiona pause in confusion.

Hadn't he just been furious that she'd neglected his precious girl? Wasn't he just giving her the cold shoulder, acting all moody?

Why the sudden change in attitude?

Just as Wiona was puzzling over this, Brooks suddenly asked, "Mom, do you know who Sunny E. is?"

Wiona didn't answer right away.

Brooks' question felt off, somehow.

Lauren, overhearing, looked at Brooks with interest.

She was curious about Sunny E. too.

"Closer than you think," Brooks added, a glint in his eyes.

Wiona's composure slipped.
