Sering Alen staring at Ellie with a goofy grin that reminded her of a clueless kid, Nancy pulled Todd aside to hide. She patted her chest vigorously and took a deep breath, Todd, am I seeing things? Alex and Ellie…
“You’re not imagining it Todd said his voice low but excited. Nancy finally put two and two together. No wonder Alex had been acting so strangely at the hospital
