President's Substitute Wife

“Honey, has June come back with you?”

Inez came out of the kitchen after hearing the sound.

I froze when I saw her.

If I met her in the street, I would never recognize her as Inez!

She was much thinner. She was wearing a floral shirt and a thick pink vest. At first glance, it was a bargain in the market.

She used to scoff at all this.

How could she be like this?

Inez saw me soon. Her eyes brightened. She came and grabbed me and said, “June!” Then she hugged me directly. “You are really June! Am I right? You’re really my June!”

When she held me, I could clearly smell a smell coming from her hair.

If they were acting, they were too good at camouflage.

I knew them. They would never act like this. They had accepted this state of life.

Inez finished holding me and looked at Ming, “isn’t this the third son of Jessop Family? You and June...”

“I’m sorry, you’ve got the wrong person. She’s not June. We just can’t bear to have this uncle freeze outside and send him back.”

Ming was more awake than me.

He replied coldly to Inez.

When I finished, I turned around and wanted to go.

Inez hugged my leg and knelt in front of me. “Don’t go, June. It used to be my fault. Please forgive me. Please. After all, I’m your mother. We are family! I gave birth to you!”

I was really angry about that.

But now I always remembered that I was Becky.

“Her mind is not clear these years. Come

I couldn’t leave or kick Inez, so I could only agree.

I really dare not stay here alone.
