After the Divorce, CEO Realizes He’s the Stand-In Lover

Seeing this, Natalie quickly spoke up and explained, “Uncle, you misunderstood us.”

“Misunderstood?” Tory obviously didn’t believe it, and he showed a curious look. “If you’re not

Natalie turned her head and lightly raised her chin to signal Ryan.

Ryan received Natalie’s gaze and quickly nodded. “Yes, yes, I’m here to cook for her.”

“Please don’t get me wrong.”

Tory’s eyes rolled, scanning the blushing young man and then his calm niece.
