Charming Lady Hard To Chase After Being Dumped

Nora stared hard at Old Maddy to look at his reaction after she voiced the question.She would never trust a person's words that easily, so she wanted to determine whether he was telling the truth through his reaction.

What she didn't expect, though, was that because of the burns on Old Maddy's face, he couldn't make any facial expressions.

Even his eyes were too small for her to see anything.This made him hard to read.Old Maddy kept quiet for a while.

Suddenly, he asked, "Twins? Triplets? What are you talking about? Didn't you only give birth to a daughter?"

How could it have been twins or triplets instead? Seeing how logical his answer was, Nora frowned.

Old Maddy interrupted her and said, "My name is Jake Reed.I am your mother's subordinate, and you are the young lady whom I now serve."

Seeing that he had brought up her mother again, Nora asked, "What on earth happened back then?"

Old Maddy heaved a sigh.
