Felix swallowed hard but still didn’t dare tell Miranda the truth.

“Mom, I really just slipped. It had nothing to do with anyone else.”

There was no way he’d let Jonathan or Elliot look down on him—especially not in front of the girls.

If he needed his mom to step in, he’d just look like a spineless mama’s boy.

Seeing he wouldn’t say anything more, Miranda sighed and let it go.

“Be more careful next time, okay?”

“Got it,” Felix replied quickly, nodding.
