His Mistress Had the Baby,I Had the Last LaughChapter 1

"Sharon Jennings, I'm bringing my sworn sister to stay with us for a few days!"

"She's pregnant, and I don't trust anyone else to take care of her."

I was about to respond when Maxwell Head fixed me with a stern look. "You can't even have kids yourself, so don't start getting jealous!"

I could barely contain my laughter. "Sure. Leave it all to me."

"I don't mind helping take care of someone else's baby."

Maxwell broke into a grin. "When did you get so obedient?"

I swallowed my smile. When he found out the baby wasn't his, I hoped he'd still be grinning like that.

The next day, he brought Vera Galloway home.

——

I waited on her hand and foot, treating the woman and her swollen belly like royalty. Steak, lobster, sushi — if she so much as glanced at something, I whipped up a new dish. I rotated the menu daily, making sure she never ate the same thing twice.

Even my mother couldn't stand it anymore. She pulled me aside and called me an idiot.

"Vera Galloway is not Maxwell's sworn sister. She's his mistress!"

"He brought his side piece right into your house, and you're playing maid with a smile on your face? Have you lost your mind?"
