Chapter 728 Dragon Manor

Marge and Brenda stepped out of the dressing room, both wearing their new clothes.

The outfits weren't anything special-just average, not too expensive, but not cheap either.

Robin reached for his wallet, intending to pay.

But Marge shook her head. Tll pay for these, she said firmly, taking the clothes and scarves from his hands.

Robin didn't argue.

As Marge moved to the register, Brenda leaned closer to Robin. Her voice dropped to a whisper. Robin, there's nothing on the back of Mrs. Leif's neck."

Brenda continued. "I made sure. I tied her scarf, and I even touched her neck. There was nothing-no scar, no mark, nothing

"When I touched her, Mrs. Leif flinched, like she wasn't expecting it. But she let me finish fixing the scarf" So, Robin, do you think Joanna might actually be someone... someone from your past? Your family? "Like maybe Mrs. Leif is your real mother?" Robin turned to look at her, his face a mix of disbelief and amusement. "You're unbelievable. I barely said anything, and you're already making wild guesses."

Brenda crossed her arms, frustration clear on her face. "I'm serious, Robin. The first time I saw Joanna, I just knew-she's your sister. The one you've been looking for all these years."

"But Marge... she doesn't look like your mom, does she? Brenda thought for a moment. "But hey, maybe you and your sister both take after your dad?"

"Enough with the fantasies, Brenda. Robin glanced over at Marge, who was getting closer, and subtly gestured for Brenda to drop it.

Brenda didn't seem to notice. "Robin, I swear, I checked. I hoped I'd see a mark, anything, on the back of Mrs. Leif's neck-like a mole, you know?" At that exact moment, Marge walked up behind them.

Robin squeezed his eyes shut, giving Brenda a quick, silent warning to stop talking.

Brenda blinked, puzzled. "What's wrong with your eyes, Robin?" She stepped closer, her curiosity getting the better of her

Robin sighed and lightly tapped her on the head. "You're such a fool."

"Hey! What was that for?" Brenda rubbed her head and pouted.

By then, Marge was right behind her.
