Elena held a doubtful gaze. She shifted her gaze to Mia before stealing a glance at her mother as if to confirm whether what Eric said was true.
Understanding the reason for her daughter's gaze, Marie nodded in confirmation.
Seeing the silent exchange between the mother and daughter, Eric pretended to be hurt. He placed a hand on his chest and said, "Sis…" He almost called her sister-in-law but thankfully, he caught himself and skipped that part. "You broke my heart."
Elena met his gaze. "I just wanted to be sure." She desperately felt the need to remind after how much he had spoiled her little girl but at last, she just refrained from doing it.
To Mia who was slowly chewing whatever was in her mouth, she said, "You are very comfortable here, I will go back to my seat. Is that okay?"
