The girl's shoes...
Combining Maverick Knight's previous unusual behavior, Audrey Cole understood!
"Is Autumn here with you?" Audrey glanced inside a few times.
Maverick Knight also saw Aurora Blaine's shoes; he remained silent.
Miscalculation.
Audrey placed her expensive handbag and box of pastries on the coffee table, then moved around the apartment.
Seeing Audrey heading toward the room, Maverick followed, his tall frame blocking her, "Mom, why are you here?"
"Didn't Autumn get injured? I came to check on her," Audrey replied.
She had wanted to visit earlier, but seeing other kids there that day, she decided not to join the commotion.
"Aren't those her shoes at the door? Why are you blocking me?" Audrey frowned.
Then, her gaze shifted towards the bedroom.
Maverick Knight's bedroom door was tightly closed.
As someone who's been there, Audrey understood.
Seeing Maverick Knight's reaction, she realized he didn't want her to see who was inside.
