Chapter 21

The more he thought about it, the more Frederick felt that something was off. After pondering for a while, he put down the perfume he was holding and turned to call Yuna.

At that moment, Yuna was busy sorting out packages with her mom. Seeing Frederick’s incoming call made her day. She answered jubilantly, “Freddie, you’re calling this late, missing me already?”

Realizing her slip, Yuna nervously added, “But, I was living with my grandma in a rented place on Riverside Boulevard some years back.”
