After nearly an hour, Isabel and Liam came back by car.

holding a plate of freshly cooked appetizer in her hand.
When she saw Isabel and Liam return, she instantly smiled warmly and gently. "Isabel and Liam,
go and sit down. Dinner will be ready soon."

Just leave!"

leave after I finish the last dish."

"Okay, I'll leave."

had been bullied into leaving.

"Ahem." Sebastian cleared his throat.

play first. I'll cook some noodles for you to eat."
"Okay," Isabel answered, "Aunt Tonya, don't be angry. I'll help you drive away that ugly woman
next time she comes."

about Isabel and Liam, so I wanted to make dinner for them, but Aunt Tonya seems to think that I
want to harm them..."
