Chapter 73

As Maja entered the room, she saw a woman around 28 years old sitting on the sofa watching TV while her aunt Susan Elston was busy cooking.

The woman on the sofa put down the apple she was munching on when she saw Maja.

Daly and Susan wore awkward expressions on their faces but remained silent.
