In a villa on the outskirts of New York.
Mrs.Landis and Iris were happily preparing dinner.
Iris was in a very good mood.
The woman, who looked as lithe as a teenager, hummed a little tune as she went back and forth the
dining table and the kitchen joyfully.
Seeing her in such a good mood, Mrs.Landis laughed and said, “Ma’am, your mind must be at ease
now, right? You’ve already asked around and found out that Mr.Hunt s girlfriend is from the
Andersons.The other Ms.Smith only has a daughter while your god-sister has a son instead! As it
turns out, the two of them just share the same name! You don’t have to worry anymore!”
Iris nodded.
“Yes, it’s fine as long as they aren’t one and the same.I was so scared that I had accidentally
elevated Justin’s girlfriend’s position to one that was more senior than his, which would have made
it awkward for the two of them!”
Mrs.Landis laughed again.
“The fish and chips are fried especially nicely tonight, so they’ll definitely taste awesome.The
children are gonna love it.”
“Yeah” Iris smiled and said, “I wonder how old Ms.Smith’s son is, and how far apart his age is from

Mrs.Landis teased her and said, “You worry too much!”
Only then did Iris suddenly realize that she was indeed worrying too much.
For so many years, many people had tried to please her.
There were even some that tried to pander to her interests and spoke knowledgeably to her about
orchids.
All of them were trying to ingratiate themselves with Justin.
In order to reduce unnecessary troubles for Justin, she had rejected them all.
Therefore, all the rumors outside claimed that she was difficult to deal with, and had a strange
temperament.
Come to think of it, Nora was actually the only friend she had made all these years.
Therefore, she hadn’t stopped Mrs.Landis when she also told Justin to come over after Nora was
invited over for dinner.
This was just her selfish desire, but she wanted her son to help Nora out a little if he could.
After all, it wasn’t easy for a woman to bring up a child on her own.
It reminded her of herself when she was taking care of Justin back then.
Perhaps because she had suppressed her feelings for too long, it led to her wanting to give the
other party all the good things she could after she made a friend.
Moreover, what Nora said the day before had made Iris suddenly realize that she indeed didn’t
understand Justin.
She was Justin’s mother.
In situations that wouldn’t cause him any trouble, helping her friend out was something he should
do, right? …
Even though Iris didn’t know what kind of help Nora could possibly need from her.
While driving to the villa in the suburbs, Nora received another call from Justin.
After she uttered a ‘hello’, Justin asked, “Are you free tonight? I’ll take you somewhere for a meal?”
Nora, who was looking ahead of her, replied, “I’m not free.”
Justin, who seemed to have heard some kind of sound, immediately asked, “You have an
appointment? Who are you meeting that has actually made you abandon me? That’s not something
that someone in love with me should be doing.He was afraid that she was going on a date with
Caleb.Nora’s lip corners spasmed a little.She couldn’t be bothered to explain that she was visiting
her newly-gained god-sister, lest the guy says something like “
“Which is more important—meeting me or your god-sister?’’ Thus, she simply said, “I’m sleepy.I’m
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmgoing home to sleep”
“..Alright then,’ said Justin.
In a rare moment, Nora asked, “What about you?”
Justin let out a low chuckle and replied, “I’ll sleep with you.”
Nora:”?”
Her voice turned cold.
“Talk properly!”
Justin said, “We’ll sleep together after you go back to your house and I go back to mine.Is there
something wrong with this sentence? Or did you get the wrong idea?”
Nora:”!!!”
The corners of her lips spasmed, and she said, “I’m hanging up!”
On the other end of the call, Justin couldn’t help laughing after Nora hung up so fiercely.
He was in the car at the moment.
The chauffeur was driving to the suburbs.
Cherry, who was sitting beside him, asked, “Are you planning to take Mommy to Grandma’s for
dinner, Daddy?”
Justin nodded.
“Yes.Your Grandma has some misunderstandings about her.I think she would be able to understand
what she’s like after we sit down and have a meal together, but unfortunately…”
“Mommy definitely won’t go!”
