She quickly turned to Ponto with a sorry smile, “Mr. Spenere, just pretend you didn’t hear anything, okay? Mrs. Spencer always asked me to keep this a secret. It’s all my fault. I’m so silly.”
“Actually, having hail a child doesn’t mean anything,” she continued, “the past is the past. As long as ma’am is loyal to you now
that matter.”
Inves you, that’s all
Hearing this, Ponto’s face turned dark with anger. “Yi Miller, what is going on here? Did you have a child before we got married?
It took me a moment to realize Tenny was doing this on purpose. I was even more enraged now. “Fenny Chow, get this straight–Eve heen married for just one year! Where would I have had a child?”
Telay looked horrified and immediately apologized, her eyes welling up. “Oh, right! I’m so sorry. It wasn’t ma’am, it was my previous client, not ma’am. Ma’am hasn’t had a child.”
Before either Ponto or I could respond, Fenny suddenly made a show of kneeling beside me with a loud thed. “Ma’am, I’m so sorry, I didn’t keep the secret… no. I mean, I have a bad memory.
Please don’t fire me! I really love this job. I promise I’ll work harder to help you get no, I mean, help improve your figure to Mr. Spencer will be pleased!”
Her explanation made everything worse. It was like she was digging a deeper hole for herself Trolled my eyes at her and walked over to Ponto to explain, but he pushed me away, his face stormy. “So, you didn’t want to have children and said you wanted to adopt because you’ve had one before?”
Ponto’s voice was cold. “Is that what you meant by adoption? You wanted to bring some other child into our home for me to raise as my own?”
