Chapter 16

Furrowing her brows, Bailey thought about Rhonda, and her expression darkened progressively.

“I know who did it, but don't you worry. I can handle this just fine.”

“Okay. If this were seven years ago, perhaps I would have been worried. Today, however, you've grown a body full of thorns. I'm more relieved that you can take care of yourself.”

His words rendered the woman tongue-tied. Is this supposed to be a compliment or an insult?

Meanwhile, in the Luther residence, Maxton immediately looked for his mother the moment he woke up.

However, he was not looking for Rhonda but Bailey.

When Felicity heard Maxton speak, she was shocked.

Even though she knew that Maxton was not mute, he rarely spoke. In the last seven years, the times he called Felicity “Grandma” could be counted on one hand.

Therefore, Felicity was beyond shocked to see Maxton crying out loud for a stranger.

Yoel and Gwendolyn had not left either. When they heard Maxton asking for Bailey, they were dumbfounded as well.

“My dear boy, don't cry. If you keep crying, you're going to break my heart.” Felicity was surprisingly patient with her precious grandson. Cradling Maxton in her arm, she kept coaxing the child.

“Send me to the condominium! I want to go there!”

Upon hearing that, Felicity froze.
