At that moment, someone knocked on the bedroom door.
“Kids, time for dinner! There’s barbecue ribs, all of you guy’s favorites today!” said Francine from
outside the door.
Joey’s eyes immediately lit up when he heard there were barbecue ribs. He grabbed ‘Bryan’s’ hand
and said, “Let’s go eat barbecue ribs now!”
Benjamin snapped out of his shock. He looked at Joey, and then back at Christine.
He still had no idea how to answer Christine. He did not want to admit he was not Bryan as he was
afraid Corinne would send him home if he came clean. He still wanted to stay and play.
Thus, he ignored Christine and ran downstairs with Joey.
“Hey, be careful! The barbecue ribs aren’t going anywhere so there’s no need to run!” said Francine

However, the two boys were already out of sight by then.
Francine shook her head and turned to look at Christine. ‘Well, I guess it’s true girls mature faster than
boys,’ she thought with relief.
“Christine, where’s your Mommy?”
Christine, who was still hugging the doll, pointed to the bathroom. “Mommy’s in there.”
Francine walked toward the bathroom and took a look inside.
Corinne was picking up the kids’ clothes from the floor for the servants to wash later.
“Corinne, dinner’s ready,” said Francine.
“Okay. Let’s go,” replied Corinne as she came walking out with the kids’ clothes in her arms.
Francine glanced at the clothes she was carrying and noticed something off about them.
“Hey, whose clothes is this?” she asked.
Corinne looked down at the clothes she was carrying.
Most of the kids’ clothes were either bought by her or Francine. Sometimes, Pamela would Thus,
Corinne remembered most of the clothes the kids had.
Moreover, she and Francine would usually buy the clothes from a few fixed brands since they liked the
quality and hypoallergenic materials used.
Unlike little girls’ clothes, little boys’ clothes were usually those few styles. The white polo tee she was
holding was an example. Bryan had a few of them in a similar style, but she and Francine had never
even heard of the brand tag they were looking at that moment.
Francine took the white polo tee to have a closer look. “Corinne, did you buy this for Bryan? How come

Corinne frowned. “I didn’t buy it.”
“This is odd. If you didn’t buy it, and I didn’t buy it, how come Bryan has this polo tee? Give me a
second, I’m going to look up this brand online.”
Francine took out her phone and searched for the brand name online. The result showed that it was an
indie brand from Molomia, and the company only sold its products there.
“Well, this is even odder. We haven’t been to Molomia for quite a while. How did Bryan end up with this
polo tee?” said Francine.
Corinne found the whole thing troubling, too. She was so focused on scolding ‘Bryan’ at the park that
she did not even notice her own son was wearing unfamiliar clothes.
