Chapter 36 I Do Not Have A Daddy

Flustered, Zachary quickly went into hiding in a corner with his siblings. However, Jesse tripped and fell on the way.

They wanted to help her up instinctively, but Ethen’s approaching footstep forced them back inside.

Seeing Jesse falling over, Arissa hurried to help her up while dusting off the dirt on her dress.

“Did you get hurt?”

“Nope!” Jesse replied nervously while stealing glances at Ethen.

Arissa pinched her daughter’s little face.

“Hello there, Ms. York!”

“Oh, hello, Mr. Frank! What brings you here?” Arissa got up to her feet and greeted back casually. She acted as she had just seen him coming by.

“We just happened to pass by and see you here. Mr. Graham hopes to have a talk with you.”

Jesse batted her eyelashes while staring at Ethen. Phew! Luckily he is not Mommy’s boss.
