"What's wrong with you now, you psychopath!" Amanda asked as she rolled her way to the foyer.806Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRdwMfTUzEl
"Don't you start with me, Amanda!" Mrs McDonell snapped at her mother-in-law. "You just stay out of this."806Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡY8PsDWXfYv
Mr McDonell suddenly appeared from the open front door as he looked surprisingly shocked at his wife.806Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡD1VlSvlxNv
"What's up with you, 806Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2U0M8qJffn
huh?" Mr McDonell asked. "Do you want the whole neighbourhood to know 806Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7VCp9i9IAl
that this house is a mental asylum or what?"806Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1EQ2cfrTnw
"Come on, Fred," said Mrs McDonell, lowering her voice a little. "This isn't an asylum."806Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcZov2Lf27R
"Well, you're making it look like one. What's the matter with you, Bertha?"806Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡP09wId4g3J
"I just wanted to know whose this luggage belongs to."806Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxi82rHwyBC
"And you have to make a 806Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXygzq4b07w
scene out of it?" Amanda asked. "You're crazy and you know it. We have 806Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRJF4V51wBw
guests in the house so mind your manners."806Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTch1fjwh3a
"Guests? What guests?" Mrs McDonell had a look of surprise on her face. 806Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTAWFA0b1oB
"Don't act dumb, Bertha. Lisa's daughters are here."806Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDkOF58HbhS
Mrs McDonell's face turned pale. She looked at the suitcases in front of her and said nothing at that moment.806Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEHO7O2aOVx
"What? Those girls are here?"806Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡECvzsQa6Ro
"Yes, Bertha," said Mr McDonell. "I brought them here. All I'm asking is that you behave yourself in front of them, alright?"806Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZzayLlM004
Mrs McDonell nodded her 806Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpP5Z1OUxoD
head a little but didn't look up at her husband nor Amanda. She turned 806Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUEYcdDtDzK
to look elsewhere and was lost in her own thoughts. The expression on 806Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3rxMuD0rW6
her face was totally hard to read.806Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCZrrdgRkLF
"Bertha, are you alright?" Mr McDonell, looking a bit concerned.806Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡR1sJjCf4MH
"Let's hope so," said Amanda, almost jeering. "We don't want her running around as wild as she already is."806Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNMno6crAJk
"Are you calling me a lunatic?" Mrs McDonell snapped at Amanda.806Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ46leu5t0pc
"Ah, looks like she is still the same old after all," said Amanda with a smirk on her face.806Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5d9Fq0gxht
"May you two please have806Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3WOVwNfZRL
your brawl some place else that isn't here," said Mr McDonell, standing806Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFkkZE5jmfw
in between his mother and wife. "We have guests in the house."806Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbhfNSdzHmX
"Couldn't you have given them another place to stay apart from here?" Mrs McDonell asked. 806Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8APmDssh7i
"Look, Bertha, I made a promise to Lisa to take care of her daughters. And that's what I am doing."806Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaTkZl4mgGa
"For once could you at least have broken that promise? Have you ever considered that we are too many in this house?"806Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrJ3ibinOCu
"You really know how to 806Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ78yRXDqO3l
make lousy excuses," said Amanda. "Those girls have no where to go and 806Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaapw5W6Dim
you just want to leave them out on the street?"806Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqIUyx5yq02
"We could provide them somewhere else to stay."806Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbjElnMUFvE
"What's wrong with them 806Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbAttaqpsN9
staying here?" Mr McDonell asked. "I already made a decision and you 806Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZkaCL5lFFX
have to respect it. Besides, Angel needs us more than ever after the 806Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGlOzPAq0Ox
accident."806Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7I9u6thaYz
Before Mrs McDonell could say anything else, Carly, Eric and Angel appeared, with Eric pushing Angel on the wheelchair. 806Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiAZjIn7y6K
"Hey, is everything okay, aunt?" Eric asked. "I thought I heard you screaming."806Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCfrmHTkIHr
"It's nothing, Eric," Mrs McDonell replied, trying to look composed.806Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxg8LWbGD5e
Mrs McDonell soon turned806Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNdnaXSJp1T
to Carly and Angel. For a moment, she thought she was going to lose 806Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡq2H0GasCwf
control and say something offensive. But instead, she put up a wide 806Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡf1EiexVxJf
smile, trying to hide how she truly felt.806Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOLdj39nXTj
"Oh, you must be Lisa's 806Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmNZSxr9FPg
daughters," Mrs McDonell brought herself a little closer towards them. 806Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ81QhIQnGOq
"It's so good to finally meet you."806Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡajxLvfRrkG
"The pleasure is ours, Mrs McDonell," said Angel. "I'm Angel, by the way."806Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡm0cqwU7IU3
Angel held up her hand 806Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡt6EUdmOJ4w
to Mrs McDonell for a hand shake. Mrs McDonell stared at Angel's hand 806Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZA7FvF8JyT
for a moment and slowly took it. The two locked their eyes on each other806Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWAPYCw2upk
until they finally let go of each other's hands. Mrs McDonell's smile 806Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡs5IYRv5Tty
almost dropped, but she tried to keep it steady and cool especially in 806Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡo1TEitp1ta
front of Angel, who seemed to feel that something was a bit off with Mrs806Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8SaGQOXZXm
McDonell. 806Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMjgvZlpqGw
"And you must be Carly," said Mrs McDonell turning to Carly.806Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8xURKkjPsE
"That's right," said Carly with a smile wider than Mrs McDonell's.806Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4utvCh1F9i
"Looks like you already 806Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8ke0Zf4jbO
like this place," said Mrs McDonell, there was a hint of venom in her 806Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVSoDRXaAiE
voice and Carly didn't seem to catch it, but Angel did.806Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyN2lbdV4k1
"It's beautiful, Mrs McDonell," Carly replied, cheerfully. "This place is like a palace." 806Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPwMd4VGNYB
"Thank you, dear," Mrs McDonell replied, trying hard not to roll her eyes. "Feel free to do whatever you like."806Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqIpqHqAyqp
"Now that the 806Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1yyJDwbgf5
introduction is done," said Mr McDonell, "Eric, would you please tell 806Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaE1Ib7ZKEl
the helpers to come and take the lady's bags to the guest rooms. It's 806Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWyvEMQ6YN7
time they settle down and get comfortable. Angel should take one of the 806Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwGNKEPBgL2
guest rooms downstairs."806Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUk8ztMi2wx
"Of course, uncle," replied Eric, leaving Angel's side and running off to fetch the helpers.806Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1ZWxs7mcTz
"You should take the room right next to mine," Amanda said to Angel. "That way I would be checking up on you from time to time."806Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9wycjOFneb
Angel just smiled at 806Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxH5Xbqxctf
Amanda. For a moment, Angel thought she had seen Mrs McDonell frown 806Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiv4HixAeig
through the corner of her eye. But she pretended to be oblivious about 806Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡofOa4AUCc9
it.806Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcTW1z5QD6C
A few seconds later, 806Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUM0Hux79bb
Eric came by with two male helpers. One took Angel's luggage to the 806Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpVjLDkIB1q
rooms along the hall. The other took Carly's things upstairs and Carly 806Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRo7b2RKshG
followed suite. Eric dragged Angel along to her room, leaving Mr and Mrs806Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpemP3kOi0Q
McDonell with Amanda by the foyer.806Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIv1E0KQpxl
"Well that went well," said Bertha sarcastically rolling her eyes and rubbing her forehead in frustration.806Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuE9KXQSfXA
"Humph......" muttered Amanda. "Some people will just never change."806Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWupcmnmXCF
Amanda rolled herself away following Eric and Angel.806Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgrcTWZmdTj
Mrs McDonell turned to 806Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6xCQHDAYvI
her husband and before she could say anything to him, Mr McDonell just 806Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7tlAz5ZeKL
shook his head, clearly warning her that he had heard enough from her 806Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7edVQqMmqB
for one day. He quickly went upstairs leaving Mrs McDonell alone.806Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAeR12F3Vvs
***806Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGKeRQZaHBo
It806Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡChRCvSdf5T
was getting dark outside as the sun started to set. Angel was staring 806Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡB9tDivvzA6
outside the window of her beautiful room which out looked the whole 806Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡADpvYKnGw0
garden outside. She took a look around her room at the magnificent white806Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCHDZKWqW21
coloured walls and the double bed with white sheets and fluffy pillows.806Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡB3hLY0yq5G
806Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfAr1mHkpRC
She806Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKZfObQOJ5h
rolled around on her wheelchair, in the room. I was such a spacious 806Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHcF14fA5Jd
room and Angel liked it a lot. The house was nice, the McDonell family 806Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcChC3PnqGl
were quite nice and even the house help were kind to her as well and 806Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxMwkpB9UEA
they would even check up on her to see if she was comfortable.806Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡN1FQrqhOc4
No806Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLYbKhPbGJJ
doubt she was going to like this place, the only problem, it wasn't 806Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvO7F2oqi9g
going to be that pleasant. Not with Leo and his mother around.806Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡq5fiPjmA06
Leo.806Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcwivkVCIqI
She hadn't thought of him for a while and she was so not prepared to 806Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVQ60JwJe6s
meet him face to face. He wasn't around for lunch earlier, so he was 806Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡw5Z0D8K1Ym
probably on his way home at this very moment. Angel clenched and 806Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3ppDwX7wBc
unclenched her fists time and time again.806Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡef07B8VoZU
While806Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡm7kBn5TVW3
Angel was lost in her own thoughts, there was a knock on the door and 806Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEYlU3MJUTK
Angel called out for the person to come in. Eric came in and a young boy806Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡR1wogr1sHM
followed suite. The little boy looked like Eric with the same green 806Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoSo7e7VJ0X
eyes.806Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWcetSqdTrj
"Angel, I want you to meet Oliver, my little brother," said Eric, "Oliver, this Angel."806Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzH57dEcHrY
"Nice to meet you, Oliver," greeted Angel with a smile.806Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡy3RVELcl3c
"With pleasure," said Oliver, bowing a little.806Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWbw9qOarqK
"Wow, you're quite the gentleman, aren't you?"806Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡakXttUHTy6
"Well, not really. You're very pretty, that's why."806Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQYiM8xmgx2
Angel806Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUfbQCsg0FO
laughed out loud so as to hide the blush on her face. "Awww, that's so 806Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡR8KBONrtZe
sweet of you. You, my friend, are handsome, much more than your older 806Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡY9hg5cqA0m
brother."806Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqgBos6VgVZ
"Don't get his hopes up," said Eric as he ruffled his brother's hair. "His way too young for all that love mambo-jumbo."806Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZchpMjTGSL
"Mambo-jumbo?806Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnjDoogqjVJ
Just so you know Eric, every girl at school is dying to be with me 806Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLLRTwrj5iD
right now," said Oliver. "I just brush them because none of them are as 806Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdYr7bs3Xm0
pretty as Angel here."806Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTgecUdBG1x
"May you please zip it?" Eric scolded playfully as Angel laughed out loud, this time with tears in her eyes. 806Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡx9ZJ3R5UOE
Oliver806Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2I6yh0YVsH
just winked at Angel as he quickly ran out of the room. Angel couldn't 806Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlR9rzj0ps4
stop laughing and Eric just shook his head as he stared at the door.806Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyBVXMvFQbi
"Oh my, your brother is really something," said Angel, as she tried to control her laughter. 806Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡm4uW0YisIu
"Ya, he has always been like that," said Eric. "Wait until he starts pulling off pranks."806Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBWsRbPHuSW
"His young. Let him do whatever he wants."806Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWMBMbiRzGs
"Well, I'm glad he made you laugh. I thought you were going to stay gloomy like that forever."806Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFCkRU4thE5
Angel just gave out a wide smile at Eric and he did the same to her. Then they turned to door and there was Amanda.806Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiSgNhu0E8T
"I heard you laughing from my room," said Amanda. "Did I miss out something funny?"806Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxrutY3Fv7v
"Just Oliver and his silliness," replied Eric.806Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpT3mh9MmDT
"Why am I not surprised? That's just how he is anyway," said Amanda with a smile. "Well, we better head for the living room."806Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOWL47WlNPs
"And why is that, grandma? It's not close to supper yet." 806Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoXtwyif4en
"Leo is back. I just heard his car pull up on the driveway."806Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsxresqaWjt
Angel's face suddenly turned pale. She turned to look the other way to avoid Amanda's gaze.806Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoODW8zFjHa
"Oh, Leo is already here?" Eric turned to look at Angel. He could only imagine what she was feeling right now.806Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWag9WnXjPH
"Well,806Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZP6kPXBnUR
yes. I want Angel to come to the living room so that they could meet. 806Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡK0gcG1KOzd
Come on, you drag her along. You two will meet me there."806Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsKz5sIcUt8
Amanda806Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhXp1XfSYv9
rolled herself out of the room leaving Eric and Angel alone. Eric 806Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKbopH2Aeft
continued to stare at Angel who had her eyes somewhere else.806Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtC03i1lcim
"Are you ready for this?" Eric asked softly.806Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAAGz5NPkpX
"I'm never ready for such things, Eric," Angel replied. "I don't know what to do. I feel like when I see Leo, I will kill him."806Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHjj1xgwHtI
Eric could feel the anger behind her voice. He placed his hand on her shoulder. Angel looked up at him.806Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡC1vhcnB5FQ
"You806Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcVu7F66PFo
two won't be able to avoid each other, now that you're both living 806Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ75kRoUIymo
under the same roof," said Eric. "Don't forget, we have to make sure 806Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9AilEYKEfq
that no one knows what really happened that day."806Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHuKZp36MLM
Angel breathed out deeply. "You're right." She closed her eyes and then opened them. "Let's go."806Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAwATzzNoOI
Eric806Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRQ7zQa5iLA
gave Angel an encouraging nod as he took the handles of Angel's 806Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjxbQo90TcX
wheelchair and took her out of the room. Angel's heart beat faster than 806Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAP1hpdFeW4
it ever had before. She knew meeting Leo was going to be hard, but she 806Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvlCzPrO7iZ
was tired of being scared. If anything, Leo was supposed to be scared of806Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfOCaPjl7mt
her and not the other way around.806Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSLruMsO2TI
***806Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkvwQS4TG72
Carly806Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYmfYceChzL
and Diana were comfortably seated on the posh sofas of the living room 806Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjD4XyvIGiS
with fashion magazines in their hands looking at the latest fashion from806Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBPdBxBwb0y
around the world. They seemed to be getting along well as they talked 806Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpeRx1WZn33
about fashion with so much glee. There talk was soon interrupted when 806Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYV4O8gaocg
they heard a car pull up right in front of the house.806Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡleCzFgyBr1
"Now who could that be?" Carly asked.806Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRIfZ7d2JvR
"Looks like Leo is here," said Diana she stood up and walked towards the window. "Yes, it's him."806Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrxkzP2Ng0N
Carly's806Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeMfnkYuVr3
heart soon started to beat faster. She couldn't tell whether she was 806Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0ng6LfOomz
excited that Leo was going to be closer to her than ever or scared 806Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLw6YfaY9j3
because of how her sister would react.806Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ01YKaEtOJU
Diana806Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSnk5M78Jyy
went to the front door so as to let Leo in. Carly stood up and 806Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡH1EuhBOGyy
straightened her clothes. She still wore the black clothes from the 806Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdjntATfnT2
funeral and she scowled as she wished that she could have changed 806Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡh4Td5c6ErQ
earlier. 806Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2VIPMOkIbt
Diana806Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSGfkfGSNTH
opened the door and a moment later, Leo walked in. Carly held her 806Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡO1PKnOiE5X
breath for a moment as she saw Leo. He looked so handsome and smart that806Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4YOgDpj5jP
she felt she could run up to him and kiss him. She swallowed hard as 806Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTwM3dRHIly
she tried to hide her urge.806Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvF1sf4NHlR
"Hey, aunt Diana," said Leo. "How has been your day?"806Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUBfIdCKy2X
"It's been okay, except for your angry mother," replied Diana. "You know how she is."806Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡo7FPxLpAkU
"Is she still mad at me? Because if she is, I don't know what I'll do."806Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyREhONHZ0r
"Oh, I forgot to remind you, our guests are here."806Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡunQBBTRr2D
"Guests?"806Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuxzSSYlbD6
"Hey, Leo," said Carly.806Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡo1kiNYUoRM
Leo turned to look behind him and his jaw dropped when he saw Carly. He was left with no words.806Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiZSa56qdD1
"Umm....hey, Carly," said Leo with hesitation.806Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡc8HPnRmGVr
Carly806Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZwILH6Rz13
blushed a little as Leo greeted her. She could tell that Leo was a bit 806Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJtFBioNFnn
surprised to see her. She could only imagine what would happen if he saw806Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWig3cazgVT
Angel.806Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFnIwlrgxxn
"Leo,806Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVOHVDon4AO
I'm glad you're here," said Amanda as she came from the other side. Leo806Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5bdKUQ80ON
tried to put up a smile as he went to hug his grandmother.806Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡK2BgEOuQqS
"How are you?" Leo asked, trying to be casual, yet feeling uneasy.806Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhuIMwl99HI
"I have never felt better," replied Amanda, with a smile. "First, I received news that you and Kim broke off your engagement."806Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtaBRQZaj02
Leo806Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJnXZLAIgp5
swallowed hard and he could feel Carly behind him shift uneasily. He 806Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6nDzokDZUs
continued to look down at his grandmother thinking of what to say.806Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6NQysFfgcz
"I'm806Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVY17sc8tZV
so proud of you, Leo," Amanda continued. "You made the right decision. 806Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbc78UHNpcM
I'm also happy that Carly and Angel have come to leave with us."806Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2n8lDXd6hq
Leo806Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwDOgXd3hVE
felt like the world beneath him was spinning out of control. His worst 806Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3W5weJwQ00
fears had come true. Angel was here. That was a problem for him all on 806Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtqT2CAio72
it's own.806Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡklTssmPfi4
"Ah, look, here she comes now," said Amanda.806Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIX3UwbGD1y
Leo806Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSvrxvVWaAw
looked behind his grandmother and Angel appeared on a wheelchair and 806Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡihEbTXl8mT
Eric was helping with dragging it. Leo couldn't help but stare at Angel.806Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8njOHbiF4e
When Angel's eyes met his, Leo could see and feel the tension behind 806Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡml4ilJwQVi
them. Just like him, he could tell that Angel never liked the idea of 806Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQ6vfnBHl5p
being here in the McDonell household.806Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8KHFNBEobt
When806Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxfDNH7yFLF
Angel's wheelchair pulled up right next to Amanda's, Leo felt the air 806Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfVeANiawG0
in the house grow stale. Leo continued to stare at Angel and Angel did 806Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWnKOBM24Br
exactly the same. There was silence between the two and it was starting 806Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvA6cn8PcKT
to feel awkward. For a moment, both of them didn't know whether to be 806Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhJEIpj99LZ
angry at each other, because playing along seemed a whole lot harder 806Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoThFhv0hHN
than they thought.806Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4c5QiByOBi
"Aren't you going to say something or are you just going to stand there, Leo?" Diana asked, as she spoke first.806Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ80AQ7Zpkev
"I....eh...,"806Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡA7LIS8rkmv
Leo hesistated. He never thought he would be this agitated, not in 806Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFKGBWD97uc
front of Angel for that matter. Carly just scratched her head in 806Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAVpsiQFcwi
embarrassment. Angel continued to stare at him and that made Leo feel 806Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHP4fExSPaI
more unease. Whatever she was doing to him, just made him more uneasy by806Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4u7ykHcSUf
the minute.806Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡR5wcfDaxdd
"How are you, Leo?" Angel asked.806Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJwiB4KQSpl
"I'm okay and you?" Leo replied.806Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsbXlASGTMt
"Never better."806Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5Xe3esdNxu
"Well, now that everyone is here, let's go in the living room while we wait for supper," said Diana.806Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXKVqz2D8vk
"That's a good idea," said Amanda. "Come on, lets go."806Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡg8hlFZbRSm
"Sure806Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOqLwKhL12k
thing," said Eric as he dragged Angel towards the living room and Diana806Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpIkJwNYi6G
took Amanda. Carly and Leo just stood there in the foyer. Leo looked up806Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZbKhbA1Go3
at Carly who had been looking at him the whole time and there was 806Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqGo3N2KDxr
nothing but silence between them.806Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsx1aU7Zy95
"Aren't you coming with us?" Carly asked, trying to be a little sympathetic with him.806Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRmhbIObKWi
"You go ahead," said Leo. "I'll join you. I just need to freshen up a bit."806Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXJRwWgtFhJ
"Okay."806Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMm4yTQ5sFf
Carly806Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYByQkcG99l
gave Leo a little smile, reassuring him that everything was going go be806Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpZQ1eAGaFF
alright. She turned around and joined the others in the living room. 806Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZOHhXXBMnS
Leo just looked on as a conversation had quickly sprang up amongst his 806Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡR96IATj2ch
family members with Angel and Carly. They all seemed to be enjoying 806Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfHKjPIP47s
themselves especially his grandmother who was right beside Angel and 806Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡP1rIC5KjVC
holding her hand.806Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmpGacWISSr
While806Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOtzAoLrBPK
the conversation was going on, Angel looked up and noticed that Leo was806Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcIY3NY7eYZ
still standing in the foyer staring at them. When Leo caught Angel 806Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNMlR23Eips
staring at him, he quickly turned away. Her eyes were already blazing 806Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRKWXwPKSzl
enough to set him on fire just like it had happened earlier. With a 806Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRBuzrnWhpL
sigh, he went up the stairs to his room.806Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMYtHtZaz3o
When806Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3r5t4gKawt
Leo reached his room, he quickly closed the door behind him and leaned 806Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxsBdKN0f5M
on the door. He was so frustrated. First, breaking up with Kim was one 806Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡga3xOlBwNd
heck of a disaster and secondly, Angel was now staying here and that was806Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTIvDdg4TdN
a living nightmare.806Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBihiI4r9Jx
He806Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhx0fynrBAZ
passed his hand through his hair wondering what to do. Trying to act 806Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYZ24NQSb8C
like there was nothing unusual with Angel staying here was going to be 806Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡh83qXvz0Yi
difficult. Besides, he was the one responsible for getting Angel into an806Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9OtHLGOCZH
accident and he had never apologised for it.806Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3ZyIWu1OMG
He806Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡylTfpVznH2
was in for a wild ride now that she was closer to him than ever. And he806Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmYXoopKiGQ
knew that if she ever got the chance to be alone with him, she would 806Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRARBNhmfDZ
definitely kill him.806Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYYnCc2RPpB
