Chapter 456

Shelmaine played with Tamisha, who showed no signs of sleeping. She was babbling happily and giggling nonstop. Samuel entered the room, got onto the bed, and instantly wrapped himself around Shelmaine. "Why isn't Tammy asleep yet?" "She's not ready to sleep yet. Where's Yolanda? Is she gone?" "Yeah," he replied. "I've told Nancy not to let strangers in next time." Shelmaine seemed deep in thought. "What did Yolanda tell you?" "What else could she say?" "Did you get your revenge?" Samuel rubbed her belly's soft skin. "Nope. I just gave her a little warning. Brody was behind most of it—it's not really my business." "He works for you." "True, but you're the one and only for me." "Stop playing dumb, Samuel." He rubbed his nose and moved even closer to her. "It's their fault for calling me a boy toy." Shelmaine couldn't stifle her laugh. "I thought you didn't care what people think of you." "I do, because it embarrassed you." For a moment, Shelmaine didn't know how to respond.
