"What's wrong with you now, you psychopath!" Amanda asked as she rolled her way to the foyer.740Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCTmugl8BIS
"Don't you start with me, Amanda!" Mrs McDonell snapped at her mother-in-law. "You just stay out of this."740Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkXKvWUznpL
Mr McDonell suddenly appeared from the open front door as he looked surprisingly shocked at his wife.740Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvAfQMs2xVy
"What's up with you, 740Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNxwSYMCgBF
huh?" Mr McDonell asked. "Do you want the whole neighbourhood to know 740Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡILwlq0ar6D
that this house is a mental asylum or what?"740Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrsjW3YawNC
"Come on, Fred," said Mrs McDonell, lowering her voice a little. "This isn't an asylum."740Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpCtOee4E2E
"Well, you're making it look like one. What's the matter with you, Bertha?"740Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqr97mqIEFv
"I just wanted to know whose this luggage belongs to."740Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0DZpGCMFZ1
"And you have to make a 740Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSrzY7A8Ntr
scene out of it?" Amanda asked. "You're crazy and you know it. We have 740Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8WqQCFDcYs
guests in the house so mind your manners."740Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxKYNlGbytP
"Guests? What guests?" Mrs McDonell had a look of surprise on her face. 740Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoe6uXdDpw4
"Don't act dumb, Bertha. Lisa's daughters are here."740Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyezsAmmME9
Mrs McDonell's face turned pale. She looked at the suitcases in front of her and said nothing at that moment.740Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZexsfQ4STS
"What? Those girls are here?"740Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbxkESyjLLX
"Yes, Bertha," said Mr McDonell. "I brought them here. All I'm asking is that you behave yourself in front of them, alright?"740Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡS7O61t2TqQ
Mrs McDonell nodded her 740Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYOfAqoyX8e
head a little but didn't look up at her husband nor Amanda. She turned 740Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3Z6et1sGkE
to look elsewhere and was lost in her own thoughts. The expression on 740Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvOZC4oVvwK
her face was totally hard to read.740Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBFKbwDQ6AB
"Bertha, are you alright?" Mr McDonell, looking a bit concerned.740Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7ivN5XIDOu
"Let's hope so," said Amanda, almost jeering. "We don't want her running around as wild as she already is."740Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqgLUivQLUk
"Are you calling me a lunatic?" Mrs McDonell snapped at Amanda.740Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXEIf8pZHnG
"Ah, looks like she is still the same old after all," said Amanda with a smirk on her face.740Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHm1AJdvwTJ
"May you two please have740Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtKAqDSXrd2
your brawl some place else that isn't here," said Mr McDonell, standing740Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqvVwDMrfDZ
in between his mother and wife. "We have guests in the house."740Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnikToVAjXI
"Couldn't you have given them another place to stay apart from here?" Mrs McDonell asked. 740Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5f1PwRkele
"Look, Bertha, I made a promise to Lisa to take care of her daughters. And that's what I am doing."740Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSeHGcjkxBk
"For once could you at least have broken that promise? Have you ever considered that we are too many in this house?"740Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXTD2hPwHff
"You really know how to 740Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡj7BlGHlKZN
make lousy excuses," said Amanda. "Those girls have no where to go and 740Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMX5s9cOPLW
you just want to leave them out on the street?"740Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUEYtRqXRgJ
"We could provide them somewhere else to stay."740Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZ5wA9bEYLS
"What's wrong with them 740Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmxZ8yRirvZ
staying here?" Mr McDonell asked. "I already made a decision and you 740Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYb3e9XDSh8
have to respect it. Besides, Angel needs us more than ever after the 740Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrg17UaKiRK
accident."740Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWNlYUW3gql
Before Mrs McDonell could say anything else, Carly, Eric and Angel appeared, with Eric pushing Angel on the wheelchair. 740Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9ZLTFToLCh
"Hey, is everything okay, aunt?" Eric asked. "I thought I heard you screaming."740Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZYN5xHsKfz
"It's nothing, Eric," Mrs McDonell replied, trying to look composed.740Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTWMqxsKWAC
Mrs McDonell soon turned740Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCubqFSqmM3
to Carly and Angel. For a moment, she thought she was going to lose 740Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0lUtzhoL1M
control and say something offensive. But instead, she put up a wide 740Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBVSgdk6vhV
smile, trying to hide how she truly felt.740Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMDUHEppaop
"Oh, you must be Lisa's 740Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDYzDp6mCu4
daughters," Mrs McDonell brought herself a little closer towards them. 740Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnxw4uXJKcr
"It's so good to finally meet you."740Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOHctCTSK4a
"The pleasure is ours, Mrs McDonell," said Angel. "I'm Angel, by the way."740Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAmMh8PpUlJ
Angel held up her hand 740Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡik4tk909lD
to Mrs McDonell for a hand shake. Mrs McDonell stared at Angel's hand 740Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4tVwcbaEUZ
for a moment and slowly took it. The two locked their eyes on each other740Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYUn3S9psCz
until they finally let go of each other's hands. Mrs McDonell's smile 740Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJWmpMYTSmK
almost dropped, but she tried to keep it steady and cool especially in 740Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdPfaZmjYcs
front of Angel, who seemed to feel that something was a bit off with Mrs740Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2rOOZXua96
McDonell. 740Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRXe2KkwfnD
"And you must be Carly," said Mrs McDonell turning to Carly.740Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6vqHUVw0LC
"That's right," said Carly with a smile wider than Mrs McDonell's.740Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxiPmYxFecV
"Looks like you already 740Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpJcOvoTxaZ
like this place," said Mrs McDonell, there was a hint of venom in her 740Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡI6jugRfLuP
voice and Carly didn't seem to catch it, but Angel did.740Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2zwzFWpjv2
"It's beautiful, Mrs McDonell," Carly replied, cheerfully. "This place is like a palace." 740Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRyCsaNkWP5
"Thank you, dear," Mrs McDonell replied, trying hard not to roll her eyes. "Feel free to do whatever you like."740Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡu1vBUXacNq
"Now that the 740Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAZTpseIHTR
introduction is done," said Mr McDonell, "Eric, would you please tell 740Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5ngnFPFsLN
the helpers to come and take the lady's bags to the guest rooms. It's 740Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡacAKDdbCU3
time they settle down and get comfortable. Angel should take one of the 740Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRNIUwpRxaY
guest rooms downstairs."740Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvrb4vX13xs
"Of course, uncle," replied Eric, leaving Angel's side and running off to fetch the helpers.740Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡocAYTaxgiF
"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."740Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDQlS5pYGw7
Angel just smiled at 740Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFutCjLVpYm
Amanda. For a moment, Angel thought she had seen Mrs McDonell frown 740Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8Ut8RRP9Ih
through the corner of her eye. But she pretended to be oblivious about 740Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMg6TCdPQcy
it.740Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlJhnkVAEyf
A few seconds later, 740Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3PNpdUPAbB
Eric came by with two male helpers. One took Angel's luggage to the 740Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBr8jsQII22
rooms along the hall. The other took Carly's things upstairs and Carly 740Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7mwdiDnIDg
followed suite. Eric dragged Angel along to her room, leaving Mr and Mrs740Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVI50gh1d7M
McDonell with Amanda by the foyer.740Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡv4Flbczxia
"Well that went well," said Bertha sarcastically rolling her eyes and rubbing her forehead in frustration.740Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrKpiRZnWKv
"Humph......" muttered Amanda. "Some people will just never change."740Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ83JoAibQuC
Amanda rolled herself away following Eric and Angel.740Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrfvT3wqkEG
Mrs McDonell turned to 740Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpZVxKEvYSl
her husband and before she could say anything to him, Mr McDonell just 740Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXXNg6mPORn
shook his head, clearly warning her that he had heard enough from her 740Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡK0A2V0IdPs
for one day. He quickly went upstairs leaving Mrs McDonell alone.740Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgqvWMpaJ22
***740Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAT8iaPFTkt
It740Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNJdmz4lzA2
was getting dark outside as the sun started to set. Angel was staring 740Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQ1VHDQaqa5
outside the window of her beautiful room which out looked the whole 740Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVwsHTuDDCi
garden outside. She took a look around her room at the magnificent white740Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBNbNRpY5oA
coloured walls and the double bed with white sheets and fluffy pillows.740Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8uG0tPiQtf
740Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdRsok4FMRU
She740Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡB3EReNz4mT
rolled around on her wheelchair, in the room. I was such a spacious 740Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXATzm1nNID
room and Angel liked it a lot. The house was nice, the McDonell family 740Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAQAf6oskJB
were quite nice and even the house help were kind to her as well and 740Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTy4FkpRoKT
they would even check up on her to see if she was comfortable.740Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTAqwPY15Sp
No740Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ14n7C354qA
doubt she was going to like this place, the only problem, it wasn't 740Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡygRsbaVoL6
going to be that pleasant. Not with Leo and his mother around.740Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKx93ITdwSD
Leo.740Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwIhkX9y2wR
She hadn't thought of him for a while and she was so not prepared to 740Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFDcbJmdSBU
meet him face to face. He wasn't around for lunch earlier, so he was 740Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjKtJZisiVM
probably on his way home at this very moment. Angel clenched and 740Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpyBJCdAr26
unclenched her fists time and time again.740Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡa5bWhdxjF1
While740Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVc8tv30YpM
Angel was lost in her own thoughts, there was a knock on the door and 740Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnXrmhLu9TP
Angel called out for the person to come in. Eric came in and a young boy740Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQQVKC4rZsz
followed suite. The little boy looked like Eric with the same green 740Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0btVPCrRUz
eyes.740Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvWpBgB89CD
"Angel, I want you to meet Oliver, my little brother," said Eric, "Oliver, this Angel."740Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡK6P3ARHwNZ
"Nice to meet you, Oliver," greeted Angel with a smile.740Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSwOYgCEKDd
"With pleasure," said Oliver, bowing a little.740Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7KtViivZI4
"Wow, you're quite the gentleman, aren't you?"740Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡO2aahWpMhk
"Well, not really. You're very pretty, that's why."740Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡO6kUhIUtpB
Angel740Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFk8iILiozq
laughed out loud so as to hide the blush on her face. "Awww, that's so 740Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCslfYt1MTg
sweet of you. You, my friend, are handsome, much more than your older 740Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZGdzMC20D0
brother."740Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyz2SC7OWpr
"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."740Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfFmaBeVT4R
"Mambo-jumbo?740Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡi3A5cn2qQE
Just so you know Eric, every girl at school is dying to be with me 740Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsiTfCJlH0N
right now," said Oliver. "I just brush them because none of them are as 740Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ51PAPUFTUb
pretty as Angel here."740Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡi0pBrKVSSS
"May you please zip it?" Eric scolded playfully as Angel laughed out loud, this time with tears in her eyes. 740Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaDmM7jbPJs
Oliver740Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbVUm3RQNql
just winked at Angel as he quickly ran out of the room. Angel couldn't 740Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhIVFPZkuJt
stop laughing and Eric just shook his head as he stared at the door.740Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3vJ6nDpKRP
"Oh my, your brother is really something," said Angel, as she tried to control her laughter. 740Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2b8YkadH4M
"Ya, he has always been like that," said Eric. "Wait until he starts pulling off pranks."740Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMGKPzynFgo
"His young. Let him do whatever he wants."740Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSG3HV05aq4
"Well, I'm glad he made you laugh. I thought you were going to stay gloomy like that forever."740Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2ihpB3LkAl
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.740Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbXWBGg3sGS
"I heard you laughing from my room," said Amanda. "Did I miss out something funny?"740Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYv1m3pAVdW
"Just Oliver and his silliness," replied Eric.740Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwoZtH5xJM2
"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."740Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6TM6m1qXg0
"And why is that, grandma? It's not close to supper yet." 740Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJ4nXL5NWR6
"Leo is back. I just heard his car pull up on the driveway."740Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzkZbLaReJu
Angel's face suddenly turned pale. She turned to look the other way to avoid Amanda's gaze.740Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbsJIAjOTPJ
"Oh, Leo is already here?" Eric turned to look at Angel. He could only imagine what she was feeling right now.740Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLf7er5DDLV
"Well,740Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSrQ9TL32BL
yes. I want Angel to come to the living room so that they could meet. 740Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡb6CG5CZhJv
Come on, you drag her along. You two will meet me there."740Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiW3cd1jYfL
Amanda740Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWZku3jZfRu
rolled herself out of the room leaving Eric and Angel alone. Eric 740Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgW1JZWRvLF
continued to stare at Angel who had her eyes somewhere else.740Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4BnU69Nsws
"Are you ready for this?" Eric asked softly.740Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0kSHS1n0J6
"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."740Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhI57weBaiU
Eric could feel the anger behind her voice. He placed his hand on her shoulder. Angel looked up at him.740Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDqynF4RzbP
"You740Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8vEEkV8eOU
two won't be able to avoid each other, now that you're both living 740Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaWvJb944Vf
under the same roof," said Eric. "Don't forget, we have to make sure 740Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSBhGMWaZLV
that no one knows what really happened that day."740Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcFObZgeUyP
Angel breathed out deeply. "You're right." She closed her eyes and then opened them. "Let's go."740Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7imwEtExBs
Eric740Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDGcOofXjR6
gave Angel an encouraging nod as he took the handles of Angel's 740Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyHLXSFgFcx
wheelchair and took her out of the room. Angel's heart beat faster than 740Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoWjKpOxALK
it ever had before. She knew meeting Leo was going to be hard, but she 740Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡebEQw2RLNP
was tired of being scared. If anything, Leo was supposed to be scared of740Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjBIXxt3iND
her and not the other way around.740Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIVX9Ai1uYf
***740Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsHYfwRV8Ei
Carly740Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtc1jA42V4g
and Diana were comfortably seated on the posh sofas of the living room 740Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡK4fArBB8gu
with fashion magazines in their hands looking at the latest fashion from740Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYlf4uCYlG2
around the world. They seemed to be getting along well as they talked 740Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaxDniq26Ki
about fashion with so much glee. There talk was soon interrupted when 740Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMZch0pR55s
they heard a car pull up right in front of the house.740Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPkr6DkWXaB
"Now who could that be?" Carly asked.740Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJ4SgKypdLR
"Looks like Leo is here," said Diana she stood up and walked towards the window. "Yes, it's him."740Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUxHfDXVc2c
Carly's740Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBJby3qF4RC
heart soon started to beat faster. She couldn't tell whether she was 740Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡowip9Cf8Rf
excited that Leo was going to be closer to her than ever or scared 740Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrEAkAqbswC
because of how her sister would react.740Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnqoDPN9PlK
Diana740Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡs069ZUNEgG
went to the front door so as to let Leo in. Carly stood up and 740Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIBK70PJTtX
straightened her clothes. She still wore the black clothes from the 740Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmqHZmz1Pm6
funeral and she scowled as she wished that she could have changed 740Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIxo5vME3Ix
earlier. 740Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡB42g9L5CKr
Diana740Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡut7tJjQhHf
opened the door and a moment later, Leo walked in. Carly held her 740Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhdBez5jYo8
breath for a moment as she saw Leo. He looked so handsome and smart that740Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡz3b0KIwtS9
she felt she could run up to him and kiss him. She swallowed hard as 740Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡf8nPicndPF
she tried to hide her urge.740Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIRMmfl55FF
"Hey, aunt Diana," said Leo. "How has been your day?"740Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbqZexT1NsE
"It's been okay, except for your angry mother," replied Diana. "You know how she is."740Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRLmy2UpgvW
"Is she still mad at me? Because if she is, I don't know what I'll do."740Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrVQtgjFcoj
"Oh, I forgot to remind you, our guests are here."740Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5cGl1lVl1t
"Guests?"740Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9VfQC6OyK4
"Hey, Leo," said Carly.740Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQGQN7WKXAp
Leo turned to look behind him and his jaw dropped when he saw Carly. He was left with no words.740Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5vTn5Ea2ld
"Umm....hey, Carly," said Leo with hesitation.740Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbCaEVA0qab
Carly740Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZfvyb4mxGE
blushed a little as Leo greeted her. She could tell that Leo was a bit 740Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDfxPaBxfMd
surprised to see her. She could only imagine what would happen if he saw740Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3smAZf7yIi
Angel.740Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8q2MxvXamt
"Leo,740Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBXPGWDrV5B
I'm glad you're here," said Amanda as she came from the other side. Leo740Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYD27g3tdDF
tried to put up a smile as he went to hug his grandmother.740Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1ZF9CTWmZ1
"How are you?" Leo asked, trying to be casual, yet feeling uneasy.740Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYnMOfbh37b
"I have never felt better," replied Amanda, with a smile. "First, I received news that you and Kim broke off your engagement."740Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡG5hTbQOzjZ
Leo740Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQlCcPN5bYz
swallowed hard and he could feel Carly behind him shift uneasily. He 740Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2THjM0qVzi
continued to look down at his grandmother thinking of what to say.740Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkvK1qrzBpZ
"I'm740Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrqVDoC7RvL
so proud of you, Leo," Amanda continued. "You made the right decision. 740Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3o1EBB7WSo
I'm also happy that Carly and Angel have come to leave with us."740Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRKY2CJG318
Leo740Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡidnSb4GkQn
felt like the world beneath him was spinning out of control. His worst 740Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXsjsLO7A0H
fears had come true. Angel was here. That was a problem for him all on 740Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNW07CaoVmT
it's own.740Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuoavcLfuZc
"Ah, look, here she comes now," said Amanda.740Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjxU3a9JFBh
Leo740Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMto5JoZg4x
looked behind his grandmother and Angel appeared on a wheelchair and 740Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡP33zPbkipw
Eric was helping with dragging it. Leo couldn't help but stare at Angel.740Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡr8cYPxiRCq
When Angel's eyes met his, Leo could see and feel the tension behind 740Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJRSmc3HsHw
them. Just like him, he could tell that Angel never liked the idea of 740Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuTDxfd0Rqf
being here in the McDonell household.740Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwARvaQErkz
When740Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKWb8gc72Dp
Angel's wheelchair pulled up right next to Amanda's, Leo felt the air 740Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ731nfptFgw
in the house grow stale. Leo continued to stare at Angel and Angel did 740Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxpmnLLO047
exactly the same. There was silence between the two and it was starting 740Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDkuUPHYigc
to feel awkward. For a moment, both of them didn't know whether to be 740Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQrlLwx0pxM
angry at each other, because playing along seemed a whole lot harder 740Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSM7hJBmFGN
than they thought.740Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWpudgi6z3Y
"Aren't you going to say something or are you just going to stand there, Leo?" Diana asked, as she spoke first.740Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡynoAFThy0N
"I....eh...,"740Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDqTOfOsnvR
Leo hesistated. He never thought he would be this agitated, not in 740Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4X7Y2qxOs6
front of Angel for that matter. Carly just scratched her head in 740Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡySn18PFrD9
embarrassment. Angel continued to stare at him and that made Leo feel 740Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡj6Kq7VQd0u
more unease. Whatever she was doing to him, just made him more uneasy by740Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhG1afafT9L
the minute.740Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHUChNomc4s
"How are you, Leo?" Angel asked.740Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLGxHXdBQsq
"I'm okay and you?" Leo replied.740Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8v0bOjJqv2
"Never better."740Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmNgRMV8lfQ
"Well, now that everyone is here, let's go in the living room while we wait for supper," said Diana.740Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqIh2d1YFMY
"That's a good idea," said Amanda. "Come on, lets go."740Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡo4wmOj4U1k
"Sure740Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnQzWUUgZ4s
thing," said Eric as he dragged Angel towards the living room and Diana740Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQai5aBCxAe
took Amanda. Carly and Leo just stood there in the foyer. Leo looked up740Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHAQdUGzOw3
at Carly who had been looking at him the whole time and there was 740Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRAFvoEUmlX
nothing but silence between them.740Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ585ZCyq6hH
"Aren't you coming with us?" Carly asked, trying to be a little sympathetic with him.740Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJ0EY9FJJDo
"You go ahead," said Leo. "I'll join you. I just need to freshen up a bit."740Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpJIQsAj3Qn
"Okay."740Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3zwMIVUXhx
Carly740Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrPSV9UNUjb
gave Leo a little smile, reassuring him that everything was going go be740Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIbfBvTfN50
alright. She turned around and joined the others in the living room. 740Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkVZOt4ELz4
Leo just looked on as a conversation had quickly sprang up amongst his 740Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9vJOq6in4S
family members with Angel and Carly. They all seemed to be enjoying 740Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIDLrVePQvX
themselves especially his grandmother who was right beside Angel and 740Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeHhTMTWDIv
holding her hand.740Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqsYpiMbTxM
While740Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCDEkEYLtc5
the conversation was going on, Angel looked up and noticed that Leo was740Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpB2Ut5sCJE
still standing in the foyer staring at them. When Leo caught Angel 740Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVoPR3DiNpA
staring at him, he quickly turned away. Her eyes were already blazing 740Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNvGmYo0msM
enough to set him on fire just like it had happened earlier. With a 740Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡe3dyH7ln4H
sigh, he went up the stairs to his room.740Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCGMw8eovPg
When740Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNBkaEB8LX2
Leo reached his room, he quickly closed the door behind him and leaned 740Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQqBmtzqSLx
on the door. He was so frustrated. First, breaking up with Kim was one 740Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQEFeaKsz5x
heck of a disaster and secondly, Angel was now staying here and that was740Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvGJB1C2Bd4
a living nightmare.740Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFqy3d9EiZB
He740Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡysp4MmjQJs
passed his hand through his hair wondering what to do. Trying to act 740Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDwF589RF2b
like there was nothing unusual with Angel staying here was going to be 740Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfIYWLCWiXQ
difficult. Besides, he was the one responsible for getting Angel into an740Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡT2RjjOws60
accident and he had never apologised for it.740Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡm92Q4xtu4l
He740Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkf0jM93gn2
was in for a wild ride now that she was closer to him than ever. And he740Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ98uTVYJgWe
knew that if she ever got the chance to be alone with him, she would 740Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6PCLi0fzKf
definitely kill him.740Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJ0GFqw73fM
