Mrs. Smith didn't know that Emma had been secretly in touch with Robert Thomson these past few days. She thought he was so cold-hearted, not even willing to come apologize in person when his wife and child had left. All he did was make a phone call; there was no sincerity in that!
"Mom!" Emma wanted to say something, but then Mrs. Smith noticed the men's clothes under the wardrobe where Robert was hiding. She frowned, "What's going on here?"
At this moment, Robert was still hiding in the wardrobe, barely daring to breathe. If he made any noise, Mrs. Smith would definitely hear him!
Both their hearts jumped into their throats. Emma's face changed, but she immediately pretended to be clueless.
"Why are there men's clothes here! And they're so messy!"
"Oh, Mom, they belong to a classmate of mine." Emma quickly replied, "Didn't he say his clothes were in the wardrobe? I opened it up to check when I was tidying up."
