Chapter 615
“Daddy, I want some cotton candy.”
Melody‘s cute voice broke through the strange atmosphere.
Earl looked down and scooped the little girl into his arms.” Come on, let‘s go get some cotton candy.”
Adina‘s gaze was unreadable. “Don‘t you care about Earley? Why aren‘t you saddened by his death?”
“He‘s in a better place, why should I be sad about that?” Catherine stared at the back of Earl‘s figure, a smile slowly forming on her lips. “Mr. Winters seems to enjoy being a father.”
Adina smiled coolly. “A father‘s love is innate.”
