Her voice was loud, attracting the crowd’s attention. The receptionist had no choice but to turn toward her and say politely, “I’m not concealing the information from you deliberately. Mr. Fuller receives many guests every day, but each of them has to make an appointment with him. If you don’t have an appointment with him, I’m afraid that I can’t let you meet him.”
Mrs. Eriksen was annoyed. “How busy is he? Does his wife need to make an appointment to visit him?”
The receptionist was stunned for a while before bursting into laughter. “Ma’am, Mr. Fuller’s fiancée just visited. How is it possible for him to have a wife? Did you mistake him for someone else?”
“That’s impossible!” Mrs. Eriksen placed the pastries on the table and said furiously, “Mr. Fuller has been married for almost three years. Why would he have a fiancée? He’s even going to have a child soon. Are you sure that you aren’t mistaken?”
The receptionist scoffed disdainfully. “You mustn’t spout such nonsense, Ma’am. Of course we’d know if Mr. Fuller is married or not. His fiancée has been visiting him for the past few days. We can’t possibly be mistaken, right?”
Mrs. Eriksen was about to rebuke when I interrupted, “Mrs. Eriksen.”
“Letty!” She looked at me and asked worriedly, “What’s wrong? Are you tired? Sit there for a while and I’ll speak to them.”
Chuckling, I shook my head and walked to the receptionist with my hand on my stomach. “There’s no need for that!” Looking at her, I asked, “Is Mr. Fuller’s fiancée’s last name Larson?”
She was shocked for a while before nodding. “Yeah! She’s the missing daughter from the Moore family. She got to know Mr. Fuller in J City and they already have a child together. I heard that they’re going to be married soon!”
“Nonsense!” Unable to stand it anymore, Mrs. Eriksen cursed, “What crap is that? Even until now, Rebecca’s still constantly pestering Mr. Fuller. It’s impossible for that child to be his.”
“Ma’am, please be more careful with your words. Don’t slander others so casually!” The receptionist seemed to be very defensive of Rebecca.
scoffed, “Slander her? Ha! If she’s a decent and upright woman, it’s impossible for her to
