Chapter 407 Mr and Mrs Carey

With that presumption in mind, Toby turned to look in Rina’s direction.

After having seen Hal and Greta, Rina jumped to her feet from the chair in shock. There was unmistakable fear in her eyes as she trembled with nerves. How are they even here?

Realization dawned upon her at that moment and her eyes widened as she stared at Zane in disbelief. Mr. Coleman! He’s the one who brought this old couple over. It has to be him since how they came with him!

 

Her fear turned to hurt and anger as she dug her nails into her palms. When she fixed her gaze on him, there was a wounded look on her face.
