Bride Behind The Mask Novel

Chapter 606

Teresa gazed longingly at the photo of Daddy Maurice, with a look of utter confusion painting her cherubic face a rosy red.

After all, she was undoubtedly Hayes’ Daddy’s daughter through and through. And her twin brother, who shared her birthday suit down to the freckle, must be Hayes’ Daddy’s kiddo too!

Staring at the photo of Mom and Maurice, she knew she couldn’t draw a thing.

Teresa, timid as a mouse, couldn’t bring herself to meet Marguerite’s gaze.

She was given the wrong photo-how could she not be flustered? She frowned and nodded, “I can draw, sure, but it’s gonna take a while! Mom, why don’t you leave the photo here and go chill for a bit? I’ll call you when it’s done, okay?”
