Cherry blinked and asked, "Do I need to put on a disguise, Mommy?"
At her question, Nora fell silent for a while.
She originally intended to put some makeup on her so that no one would recognize her.
However, when she thought of how Justin had blushed during dinner the night before when he realized that he had taken a sip of her drink... She couldn't help but think that he wasn't actually that scary, right...?
Besides, the unsettling feeling she had the night before made her want to know what exactly the source of danger was. Also, why had her mother left such words behind before she died?
She had a vague feeling that her premarital pregnancy back then was related to what had happened to her mother.
After the incident, she had conducted some investigations. In her memory, she had never been in contact with Justin before. How exactly she became pregnant was also a mystery in itself.
To be honest, it was meaningless to hide the truth from Justin.
In that case, she might as well be honest with him. As for why Justin hated Pete's mother so much, there must be some kind of misunderstanding involved.
She was a frank and open person. Everything would be fine once properly explained.
Having thought so, Nora replied,"... No, it's okay."
Cherry's eyes lit up. "Really?"
"Yes, really."
"That's awesome!"
Cherry picked up her cell phone and said, "I'm going to tell Pete that our family is gonna be reunited soon!"
Seeing the little fellow about to run off happily, Nora suddenly asked, "Have you prepared a birthday present for Daddy?"
Cherry paused and turned around. "Do kids have to prepare gifts for adults?"
Nora,"?"
Who was the one who kept saying she wasn't a three-year-old anymore?
Just as she was thinking about it, a grinning Cherry said, "Don't worry, Mommy! I got it ready a long time ago! I've already drafted my speech. Daddy will definitely love the praises I'm gonna sing of him!"
"..."
So, her birthday gift for him was also a crazy bout of flattery?
Excellent! This was indeed very fair!
Nora didn't pay her any more attention. Instead, she turned and went downstairs while she said, "Go and change. I'll wait for you downstairs."
"Okie-Dokie!"
It was Saturday that day, so she didn't have to go to school.
Tanya had moved to a hotel that the TV program production team had prepared for her after she picked up Cherry from school the day before, so that filming would be more convenient.
Sheril had cooped herself up in the pharmaceutical factory's laboratory again. As for Logan, he usually stayed out all night every day and rarely returned... Lastly, the elderly Mrs. Anderson was currently napping.
Therefore, the house was deserted.
When Nora went downstairs, she saw a forlorn Melissa seated on the sofa. Even though she was lost in thought, it was deeply ingrained in her to keep her back straight and pay attention to her form at all times, much like a noblewoman who had undergone strict training in olden times.
Nora walked over to her. "How did it go, Aunt Melissa?"
