He had always found Mackenzie hard to approach, so much so that he would

“It’s okay. It’s worth it as long as Tommy likes it,” Mackenzie responded calmly.
She then found a quiet corner and took out her laptop and phone, planning

“Would you like to go to my room? It’s quiet there.”
His bright eyes put a smile on Mackenzie’s face. “Sure!”
She did not want to see Abellyn, anyway.
Hence, Mackenzie went to Tommy’s room to work while Ryder entered the
kitchen to help Emmanuel.

Their visit surprised Abellyn, as her family was not originally from Yeringham.

She continued fooling around until she was tired of it. At that time, she was

marry Ryder.
Her mother and sister did not live in Yeringham. It was only during New Year’s
and other important events such as weddings or funerals that they would
travel to the city to visit their relatives. Hence, Abellyn did not expect them to
him to leave, she heard Tommy crying outside.
While Mackenzie was puzzled, Emmanuel muttered with a frown, “Abellyn’s
Abellyn’s sister was Chloe Sheppard. She had a son named Robby, who was
two years older than Tommy. Every time Chloe brought him to Ryder’s house,
he would make Tommy cry.
they saw Robby playing with Tommy’s new toy. To make things worse, Robby
