Chapter 76

Jealous Desmond

"Sander?" I was shocked to see my son here.

"Are you my Mama's male friend? Greetings!" I flinched when Sander bowed his head at Nicklaus. "I am Sander Verlice, son of Papa, Desmond Verlice, and Mama, Seraphina Beryl."

I chuckled as I smiled wryly when he already introduced himself before Nicklaus. When I looked at Nicklaus, he was already smiling, nodding his head.

"Greetings to you, too, young lord. I am Nicklaus Romero. Yes, I am your Mama's male friend."

"Pleasure to meet you, Mama's male friend, Sir Romero."

"Sander!" I scolded him. I suddenly felt bashful when Nicklaus even joined in the way Sander addressed him. "My apologies, Nicklaus. It is rude that my son addressed you that." I smiled apologetically.

He gestured his hand as if dismissing it. "It's fine. He looked respectable with the way he greeted me."

Even though he didn't mind it, I felt like it still felt wrong that Sander had to call Nicklaus like that.
