章節 55: Chapter 55

“From your lips to God’s ears.”

“Mrs. Matheson, is there any place in particular you’d like us to put the gifts?” I asked.

She looked around, then called, “JR!”

A tall young man who had her strawberry-blond hair and blue eyes joined us. “Yes, Mom?”

“This is Mr. Vincent and Mr. Mann. My son, John, gentlemen.”

His eyes took on a panicky expression as he stared at Mark, but Mark just held out his hand. “It’s nice to meet you, JR.”

He blew out a relieved breath. “You too, Mr. Vincent. Wills has talked about you quite a bit.”

“JR, would you mind taking the gifts Mr. Vincent and Mr. Mann brought and put them on the gift table?”

“Sure thing, Mom.” He seemed more relaxed now. “I’ll see you later.” He grinned, took the gifts, and hurried off.

“You have a very handsome son,” I told her.

“Thank you.” She blushed with pleasure. “Jack and I are proud of all our children.” She rubbed her abdomen again.

“Are you all right?” I asked.
