Corinne was already bad enough, and now we have to deal with this, too?’ Sherlyn frowned in alarm. "Who are you guys? And what business do you have with my dad?" "I'm an old friend of your father, and I've cto ask him something," answered Emily.
'An old friend?’ Sherlyn knew things were not as simple as they seemed, so she did not want to cooperate with them.

Emily was not going to give up that easily since she was already there. "He can't possibly be out fishing the whole day. We're not in a hurry, and we don't mind waiting for him inside." Sherlyn's frown deepened. 'So she's not going to let up that easily, huh?' "I told you that my dad isn't home, and | don't know any of you. What if you robor something after I let you in? You should call my dad if you're in a hurry to see him. Now get out of my way. The sun is burning me. | need to slather on slotion so | don't get sunburn." Sherlyn pushed away Emily and Melinda, took out her key to open the door, and quickly went inside her house.
Emily wanted to push her way in, but Sherlyn closed the door too fast for her to do that.
Melinda had guessed by then who the mansion belonged to.
"Emily, maybe we should head back first since Marvin's not home. We can always canother day," advised Melinda.
"You can go back with Lilin. I'm going to wait here for him. | won't be able to sleep tonight if | don't get to the bottom of what happened back then," replied Emily.
She wanted to interrogate Marvin why he told her Luna was dead when she was very much alive. What good was that to him? 'He's the one to blfor separatingand Luna! My poor daughter wouldn't have to suffer in the countryside if it wasn’t for him. And yet he’s clearly doing well for himself. He even has the nerve to go fishing for leisure!'thought Emily.

Meanwhile, Sherlyn quickly called her mother as soon as she stepped into the mansion.
Lilliana was elsewhere playing cards, so it took her stto answer her daughter's call.
"What is it, Sherlyn? I'm busy right now!" she said impatiently.
"Mom, how can you say you're busy when you're just playing bridge? Look, two pretty women who are about the sage as you are standing outside our door right now! They say they're here to talk to Dad. One of them even has a seven or eight-year-old kid with her! There's definitely something going on, and if you don't cback now, you'll lose your husband!" "What? How dare those hussies try to steal my husband? Where's your father now? Is he home?" 1 "No, he's not. That's why I'm telling you; you should cback right away! You have to get rid of them before Dad gets home. What if his heart goes soft forthose women again? We'll have nowhere to go then! You should know very well that Dad doesn't really care about US anymore after what that b*tch Corinne did. | don't have a job right now, so if he kicks US out of the house, we'll end up homeless and starving!"
