Chapter 391: Courage

It was Mia’s birthday. No wonder she had asked Tanya to bake her a cake, and even said a prayer before eating it.

She pushed Joel and said, “Daddy, hurry up and kiss Ms. Turner! She’ll cheer up if you do that!”

Joel: “…”

Tanya: “…”

Joel didn’t know the reason for Tanya’s sudden change in behavior, but he knew that she likely held a grudge against Mia’s existence all this time.
