Chapter 957:

Turning to Kallie, Elma pleaded, “Mom, let’s take a photo. Please? My teacher even gave us an assignment to take a picture with our parents and write about it!”

Kallie raised an eyebrow, amused. Naturally, the teacher wouldn’t give such an assignment. She could see through Elma’s little fib, and Elma’s earnest face made it hard to refuse. She had no idea about Jake’s thoughts. If Jake was unwilling, it would feel like pressure to agree.

Just as Kallie was about to try and persuade Elma, Jake unexpectedly said, “If it’s for Elma’s school assignment, we should go along.”

Kallie looked up, startled by Jake’s agreement.

Kallie tilted her head slightly, giving Jake a curious, almost puzzled look.

Jake felt as though his thoughts were transparent around Kallie. He cleared his throat, a nervous habit, and hurriedly said, “I mean, we shouldn’t put the kids in an awkward spot in public.”

Kallie remained silent, her eyes briefly meeting those of their children.
