Cindy Clarke quickly glanced at Lyke Zhekova, grateful that he had not overheard the conversation.
However, she wasn't certain if Peggy Lewis, seated next to the youngster, had eavesdropped or not.
Fortunately, Peggy Lewis did not catch any of it.
The little one's whisper to Cindy Clarke was too inaudible for anyone to overhear.
To ensure Peggy Lewis didn't hear a word, they spoke in hushed voices.
Cindy Clarke, whispering, said, "Your Fourth Grandfather was merely agreeing with what your Great Grandmother said in order to encourage your Godmother to visit more often."
The little one nodded his head in understanding and said, "Oh, are they trying to manipulate Godmother?"
Cindy Clarke: "..."
"Wouldn't that count as deceiving Godmother?" the youngster asked again.
Not knowing what else to say, Cindy reluctantly confessed, "Actually, your dad did the same thing to us."
And it wasn't just her; both of them had been manipulated by the same tactic.
