Wyatt Hale coughed as he leaned close to her ear, his voice subdued, "Sister-in-law, when did you offend Uncle?"
"I didn't."
Although they lived under the same roof, the Hale family's house was vast, and aside from meals, everyone was busy with their own things, rarely crossing paths.
She and Finn Hale had barely spoken a few words to each other.
Why would she provoke him for no reason?
"Sister-in-law, if it were anyone else, I would have helped you, but with Uncle," Wyatt Hale coughed dryly, "I really can't handle it."
"Good luck to you."
Having said that, this useless fellow actually made the excuse of making a call and slipped out.
Zoe Bell was left to face Finn Hale alone, creating an extremely awkward atmosphere.
She nodded to him politely and called out, "Uncle."
Finn Hale nodded without saying anything.
Zoe Bell found a seat far from him. Finn Hale gently rubbed Sweetbean's belly, and the little guy squirmed on his lap. "You seem very afraid of me?"
"Not really."
