Samantha couldn't stand it and said, "How can you say something like that? You should just shut up if you have nothing better to say! No one would think you're mute if you keep quiet!" Shaun had not come back last night, and there wasn't any news from him in the morning, so she was worried sick. Hera reached out to hold Samantha's shoulders and gave her a reassuring hug. Samantha turned to sneer at Nicholas before lying her head on Hera's shoulders. Nicholas was flabbergasted.
