“Lydia, did you see the mayor’s daughter from Maple Town at the party last night?” Grandpa Samuel asked.
Lydia nodded. “Yeah, we met.”
“So, what do you think of her?”
Lydia hesitated. “Grandpa, I really don’t know her that well. I can’t say.”
Grandpa Samuel shot a look at Mikey and let out a heavy sigh. “He is so careless. He didn’t even realize someone else was in the room. Now she’s claiming he ruined her reputation, and there’s no way he can talk his way out of this.”
Mikey stayed quiet, looking a little lost.
Grandpa Samuel honestly just wanted his grandsons to settle down and give him a few great-grandkids. But Miss Brown’s behavior… for a man who’d always valued integrity, it was hard for him to accept.
“If she really liked Mikey, she could have just been open about it, gone after him the right way. I would’ve even helped her out. But now…”
He shook his head, clearly frustrated.
“Her approach really wasn’t that clever,” Lydia said.
“Miss Brown keeps saying she wants to marry him, and now everyone knows about it. If rumors start spreading that Mikey did that to her, it’ll be bad for his reputation, maybe even his job.”
Lydia nodded. “Exactly. Maybe he should just go along with it for now. We can figure things out later. Who knows, something unexpected might come up.”
Grandpa Samuel looked confused. “What do you mean by that…”
Mikey finally spoke up, turning to Lydia. “Yesterday, you said there was something off about the Brown family and told me to just go with it for now. What’s really going on?”
“There’s definitely a big problem. It’s complicated. If we make one wrong move, it could mess everything up. I need to look into it more before I can explain.”

Olha a história bem boa só algumas coisas são chatas ( nesse tipo de história sempre troca as filhas pela a da empregada ou então pegam uma menina pra criar) pelo menos eles tratam a filha bem só enche o saco que até agora a Lucinda tá lá enchendo ! Fora isso tá bom Connor é um fofo a família dela a ama muito só Lucinda pra abaixar o nível do livro já era pra ter resolvido isso e fazer ela pagar mais tudo bem li um livro chinês que era parecido só algumas coisas diferentes ,ais mesma coisa tipo ela salvou o Connor no início lá ela salvava o avô dele , no chinês ela não tinha um irmão mais novo com os pais adotivos , a mãe dela tinha 2 irmãos e todos os avós estavam vivos mais história quase igual e tem coisas tipo o triângulo que lá TB tinha até a Lucinda que no chines TB ficou o livro todo aprontando só no final a família descobria e se livrava dela aí ela ia morar com o cara que ela usa pra disfarçar que não gosta do Connor aí depois ainda quase matava a irmã dele e a mãe dele que ele via como ela era...

Every chapter is missing a sentence from the end of every chapter. It’s frustrating to try guess what’s missing or said...
