Chapter 61
At once, everyone in the living room, except for Shane, couldn’t help but burst into laughter.
Suzanne shook her head in helpless amusement. It was rare to see Shane being put in his place. He and Marsha were such a handful.
The playful banter between the young ones didn’t bother Marvin, who just sat quietly, enjoying the scene
After taking a bite of food, Marsha glanced around the room and then turned to Marvin with a puzzled expression. “Where’s Jayda? The bag she asked me to buy for her from abroad has arrived. I wanted to give it to her.”
She was about to start working on her new project soon and would be busy in the coming days, so she didn’t know when she’d have time to come by
But today Turned out to be the perfect day. She bumped into Suzanne and got unexpected gossip
Marvin and Suzy originally had faint smiles on their faces, but their expressions darkened slightly. Marvin replied. “She’s gone back to her parents‘ place
Marsha was a little surprised but quickdy nodded and didn’t press further. T leave the bag here, then. Aunt Suzy, help me give it to Jayda when she
comes back”
She had always had a good relationship with Marvin and Suzy Back when her work schedule wasn’t as packed, she would visit them often, so she was well aware of the family dynamics.
With Rodney’s illness, there had been ongoing Tensions between Rodowy and his wife, Jayda Olsen. It wasn’t unusual for her to visit her parents.
Because of this, the family treated Jayda very well. After all, they owed her a great deal.
Suzy smiled in response. “You’re really thoughtful, Marsha.”
Marsha waved her hand dismissively. “Oh, please. By the way, I really love all the food here. I’ll have to come by more often.”
If you like it, eat your fill. I’ll cool for you myself next time.
Marsha’s lit up. “That sounds perfect!
They chatted and ate for a little while longer. After about ten minutes, Marsha’s phone rang
She answered
After hearing what was said on the other end, she frowned and said seriously, “Wait for me. I’m coming right now,
She hastily took a couple of bites and turned to Suzzanine. “I’ll take you out for drinks another day, babe. Something urgent has come up. I need to leave
now
She quickly hugged Suzanne
Suzanne Imew Marsha was busy, so she didn’t try to losep her, but she still offered a concerned reminder. “Drive safe. No speeding ”
Marsha’s impatient nature often made Suzanne worry when she was driving.
Marsha gave her an “OK” gesture as she headed toward the door. “Bye, Uncle Marvin, Aunt Suzy. Please say hi to Rodney for me!”
Her voice echoed in the living room as she left.
Marvin shook his head with a sigh. “This niece of mine is really.”
Suzanne, on the other hand, felt a little closer to Marvin because of Marsha. She smiled and said softly. “She’s always so full of energy.”
It made her wonder what kind of man could match someone like Marsha
After chatting with Marvin for a little while longer, Suzanne was ready to head home. She glanced at her watch.
Austin should be almost back by now.
About half an hour later, Suzanne and Shane left the Guerra residence.
Once Suzanne fastened her seatbelt, she noticed Shane knocking on her car window. She rolled down the window and looked at Shane, puzzled “What’s wrong?
Shane pointed at the car door lock, signaling for her to open the door.
