NovelEnglishChapter 1648 After reassuring Corinne she would not relay what happened in the restroom to Adam and Sophia, Melinda prepared to go back to the table with Lilin and the real Benjamin.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtAs Melinda turned to look at Corinne before leaving, they locked gazes once more and felt that Corinne was somehow eerily familiar to her. Melinda had to stop for a moment and stare at Corinne for a moment.
Corinne was a little puzzled by Melinda's gaze and asked, "What's the matter, ma'am? Is something on my face?" Melinda regained her composure and shook her head apologetically. "No.
It's nothing," she said before leading the two children out of the bathroom.
The peculiar look in Melinda's eyes left Corinne feeling a little unnerved. It was their first tmeeting each other, so she found it odd that Melinda would look at her as if she was someone Melinda knew.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmAs Melinda, Lilin, and Benjamin left the restroom together, Bryan hugged Corinne's thigh and said, "I'm so glad | can finally go hwith you, Mommy!" Corinne gazed down at Bryan and reached out to tap his little nose. Are you sure you're that happy to go hwith me? | thought you enjoyed your twith your father these past few days." Bryan pursed his lips and said, Hmm... Honestly, Mommy, | do like staying with Daddy, but it's really annoying that Sophia is watching him all the time." "Does that mean you're only coming hwithbecause Sophia is annoying? Would you prefer to stay with Daddy instead of Mommy if Sophia wasn't around?" Bryan shook his head vigorously. "No! You're more important than anything.
| just wish that Sophia would just disappear so you can be with Daddy! Then I'll have Daddy and Mommy! We could all be together!" Corinne ruffled Bryan's hair and said, "Well, isn't that a x IW imagination?" Bryan hugged her tightly and said, "Stop pretending, Mommy. | know you like Daddy a lot too. You'll bring him back hto US even if | don't ask you to! Am I right, Mommy?" Corinne could not help but smile at perceptiveness.
She knew she could not leave with Bryan because the restroom door was too close to Sophia's table. There was a chance they would be spotted if they left too soon. Corinne felt that it would be safer to leave after Adam and his family finished their meal.
Back at the dining table, Melinda took her seat after returning with Lilin and Benjamin. Sophia looked carefully at Benjamin to see if there was anything out of the ordinary. She only shifted her attention to a teary Lilin after confirming that everything was in order.
Lilin's reddened eyes seemed to suggest she had cried and that Melinda must have reprimanded her severely.
Sophia put on a somewhat sympathetic smile and said, "Have you finally realized your mistakes after Aunt Melinda taught you a lesson?"
