144.Chapter 144
Teresa pulled out a scarf from the paper bag and handed it to Michael. “I got you a scarf.”
Michael tilted his head. “Mommy, it took you two days to get me this scarf.”
“Uh, yeah, well, at least I brought it back for you,” Teresa replied.
Feeling a bit guilty, she walked into the room with Michael following her. As she took off her coat, Michael noticed her neck, and quickly said, “Mommy, your neck is hurt!”
Teresa paused, suddenly realizing something. She grabbed a silk scarf from the bedside and hurriedly tied it around her neck. “I’m fine. I just accidentally scratched myself while asleep last night.”
“Mommy.” Michael narrowed his eyes, which were identical to his father’s, and said, ” You’re acting odd.”
Teresa was flustered. “W–What? What do you mean? Don’t look at me like that.”
Michael sniffed in Teresa’s direction, then put his hands on his hips. “You smell like Mr. Lime. You were with him last night, weren’t you?”
Teresa broke out in a cold sweat, wondering who her son took after, with such a sharp nose and acute sense of smell. She protested, “I–I wasn’t hanging out with him. I hardly know the guy!”
“Then why do you smell like Mr. Lime?” Michael probed.
“He’s a guy, not a butterfly. How could he have any scent?” Teresa voiced.
