I don’t want him here.”“But he’s my sister’s child.”“That sister of yours has lots of children. If she’d keep her legs closed, she wouldn’t have to farm them out for other people to raise. I doubt this one even knows who his father is.” She looked at the boy and shivered. “And I don’t like the way he looks at me. It’s as if he knows something he shouldn’t.”Claire Swedan wasn’t the only person to feel that way.
