章節 96: His Gifts to Her Family

I got the answer the next day. 

I woke up to the sounds of barking dogs, and Nicole's squeal of laughter. It was followed by Claude's shout of glee. Then Colin cursed like a sailor. 

I was alone in Nicole's room and the sun was halfway up the sky. Duncan must have let me sleep in. The side of the bed where he slept was cold. 

I got up, did my usual routine in the morning, and braced myself for whatever I would find.

I know this was not my house. I guess it would be eventually, but now, I breathed a sigh of relief that the kitchen was not in shambles, which was a good sign. There was also a note on the fridge telling me that my food was warming in the oven. They cooked waffles and left me two pieces. As for the kids, I do not know how many had they eaten, I was not going to that territory.
