When Shane ended the call, his lips slightly turned upward at the corners. He looked up and happened to see himself in the rearview mirror.
He was stunned. Looking at the corners of his mouth, he instantly calmed his composure and started the car.
......
Sheryl returned the phone to Charlotte, but she didn't talk to her. Instead, she turned around and went back to the children's playground.
Charlotte couldn't help but feel helpless. She didn't know what she had done wrong to make this little fellow angry at her.
Soon, Shane arrived.
Charlotte was keeping an eye on Sheryl with her chin propped on her palms when she suddenly felt that the people around her stopped talking. There was also a familiar scent.
She turned around subconsciously.
"Shane." There was a hint of frustration in her tone.
"What's wrong?"
"Sheryl has been begging to see you for the entire day. I'm obviously her mother."
