When There Is Nothing Left But Love

Audrey was finally free, but she huffed in frustration, “You’re mean, Mommy! I called you earlier, but you ignored me and let me get bullied!”

There was a possibility if Audrey had seen it wrong since she was quite a careless person. But if Shaun was insistent on it, it had to mean that the woman really did look like me.

Even so, it didn’t mean that it was right for them to sneak out.
