Carly walked in through 523Please respect copyright.PENANAlOoy2go48q
the front door, exhausted. She had too many bags in her hands and her 523Please respect copyright.PENANAJzksOnTAyZ
feet were already giving her hell since she wore high heels.523Please respect copyright.PENANAsfGicvfpjl
One of the helpers, a female, came just in time to help her with her bags. Carly couldn't help but feel relieved.523Please respect copyright.PENANAnECjdL6rdh
"Please take them up to my room," said Carly after handing them over. The helper made her way up the stairs.523Please respect copyright.PENANAmyfhQnBRNN
"I see you're back from shopping," said Amanda as she appeared in the foyer in her wheelchair.523Please respect copyright.PENANA58ECz253CL
Carly smiled. "Yes, I am," she said. "How have you been?"523Please respect copyright.PENANAVJFDuCOD55
"Never better, dear. Where is Diana? I thought she was with you."523Please respect copyright.PENANAL52HSKw9vX
"She had something to do at the salon and told me to come here."523Please respect copyright.PENANAzEILe200hW
"Have you already eaten lunch?"523Please respect copyright.PENANAiXCgrFm6zI
"Yes, we ate at a restaurant."523Please respect copyright.PENANAFVQGuShp5w
"Looks like the shopping did you good."523Please respect copyright.PENANAIWDzng97Ws
"Yes, well, a lot has happened these past few days that I really needed this."523Please respect copyright.PENANAN63sS0SZ8z
"Mmm," Amanda gave Carly a smile. "I can tell. Nice heels by the way."523Please respect copyright.PENANAbSGvB4kdCG
"Thanks," Carly smiled at her.523Please respect copyright.PENANAbH9wrozn9n
"If you need Angel, she's in the study."523Please respect copyright.PENANAwKhaCGUaTS
"In the study?"523Please respect copyright.PENANAb3AdzhWyMQ
"The study downstairs. She was a little bored and didn't want to watch TV, so she decided to spend her time with a book."523Please respect copyright.PENANA7tWvC44l6n
"She's like that. Always a bookworm." Carly turned around to close the door behind her.523Please respect copyright.PENANAf2gmztaz6i
"You should also be on your books, don't you think?"523Please respect copyright.PENANA2RU6RsbJQf
Carly looked at Amanda and wondered what to say. She could even feel her cheeks blush.523Please respect copyright.PENANAOcsDd7izI8
"I know you're supposed 523Please respect copyright.PENANAHdS771wUeo
to be at college," said Amanda as she chuckled when she noticed Carly 523Please respect copyright.PENANAC8t5ATehDS
blush. "But it's okay. It's Friday anyway and considering what's been 523Please respect copyright.PENANAf9dMgJuh6E
going on, it was good you went out to get yourself distracted."523Please respect copyright.PENANAS4tgzGoSRz
Carly felt herself 523Please respect copyright.PENANAiNDr9x7RK4
relax. Amanda was only pulling her leg. She didn't like anyone telling 523Please respect copyright.PENANAKtLkCLz5mT
her that she had to go for lectures. She knew that already. And she 523Please respect copyright.PENANAaEcU0toL93
wasn't going to be comfortable if someone who was not her sister told 523Please respect copyright.PENANAutx7EYW2nE
her that.523Please respect copyright.PENANA4IWhcpURIR
"I better go and see Angel," said Carly.523Please respect copyright.PENANAocWrZzuqak
"You go do that," said Amanda, "I think I'll go and entertain myself with some soap opera on TV."523Please respect copyright.PENANAn6iD4nYiOk
Just before the two 523Please respect copyright.PENANAR3HeuGuT74
could part ways, Mrs McDonell came down the stairs, talking and laughing523Please respect copyright.PENANAfwdpYdwdty
loudly on her iPhone. When she reached the bottom, she cut the call.523Please respect copyright.PENANA9QiewD33PF
"I see you're back," said Mrs McDonell as she looked at Carly.523Please respect copyright.PENANA4t5bwa0asY
"Yes, I am," Carly answered.523Please respect copyright.PENANAxzx3Whl903
"Nice heels," Mrs McDonell raised an eyebrow towards Carly's pink heels. "Did Diana chose them for you?"523Please respect copyright.PENANAwFEDbFMGZY
"Oh, no, I picked them myself."523Please respect copyright.PENANAhxuXGGn6x0
"Nice. You've good taste. I hope your sister does too."523Please respect copyright.PENANArj1Tif8Cgt
"Oh, she does. You have seen nothing yet. Wait until she gets better."523Please respect copyright.PENANAmiR4ff32N5
"Can't wait." Mrs McDonell tried to smile but it came out dry.523Please respect copyright.PENANA3nHMjqVwUj
"I better go and check on Angel," said Carly.523Please respect copyright.PENANAcQgAPsRRVA
Carly went on her way 523Please respect copyright.PENANA9qAHRosQgx
taking the left side of the foyer and into the hall where Angel and 523Please respect copyright.PENANAGWZUowv860
Amanda's room were. It also led to the study she just found out about 523Please respect copyright.PENANADlQXCsO4FX
from Amanda.523Please respect copyright.PENANAAx4DQ1tOXa
She was within earshot of the two ladies who remained in the foyer when she heard Mrs McDonell saying:523Please respect copyright.PENANA6gK3rvrjSF
"Kim will be coming for dinner today. I invited her."523Please respect copyright.PENANAdA6rITgZtx
"You really want Leo to be mad at you, don't you?"523Please respect copyright.PENANAO838Y8oq1a
Carly couldn't hear 523Please respect copyright.PENANAyZdVpSsL3a
their conversation any more when she turned round the corner after 523Please respect copyright.PENANAefAuaN8N05
bypassing the two bedrooms and found a huge large mahogany door at the 523Please respect copyright.PENANAy6ze2TF0B1
end of the hall. She guessed that it might be the study.523Please respect copyright.PENANAPcu39xqcuY
Before she could get to 523Please respect copyright.PENANAb162VZa68H
the door, she wondered what the two women were talking about. It 523Please respect copyright.PENANAzIHPZvCQXr
intrigued her in some way because it concerned Leo.523Please respect copyright.PENANACwH9bWA4cX
She opened the door to 523Please respect copyright.PENANAePzZU2bxfJ
the study and was greeted by the sight of shelves filled with books. The523Please respect copyright.PENANAMqibYpTExH
room looked cosy though. The brown coffee carpet and the empty 523Please respect copyright.PENANAMEm8UwUkma
fireplace with cosy brown couches next to the fireplace gave a warm 523Please respect copyright.PENANAN0VpQhgCAL
feeling. There was a huge glass window overlooking the garden outside 523Please respect copyright.PENANAlBEVWud4OG
and just in front of the window was Angel in her wheelchair. She sat 523Please respect copyright.PENANAjSuGZOCQKx
facing the windows but her face was on the book in her hand. She looked 523Please respect copyright.PENANAtiuLWa09wL
taken away with what she was reading because she hadn't heard the door 523Please respect copyright.PENANA3oCYywGHKo
to the study open nor Carly approaching her from behind.523Please respect copyright.PENANA0NkdtS71tC
"Hey, sis," said Carly when she reached out to Angel slowly and placed her hand on Angel's shoulder.523Please respect copyright.PENANA4gchi25KoC
Angel looked up from the book she was reading and at her sister. She didn't seem startled.523Please respect copyright.PENANA1bAdQ5RDki
"You're back," said Angel. She sounded blunt. "How was the mall?"523Please respect copyright.PENANAh1Yh86TbaK
"It was great," Carly answered with glee like a little child.523Please respect copyright.PENANAQT6OvTJSI6
Angel tried to give a slight smile but failed. "Glad you had fun."523Please respect copyright.PENANAKDnTpoKusn
"How has been your day?"523Please respect copyright.PENANAsJCMb24DT0
Carly asked as she went over to an office desk at the corner of the 523Please respect copyright.PENANANX3HIlr9rk
room next to the huge glass window and took a chair, came back and sat 523Please respect copyright.PENANAYOAOX9SuWj
facing her sister.523Please respect copyright.PENANA1yBUa2VH4u
"It was okay, I guess," Angel shrugged her shoulders.523Please respect copyright.PENANAxPB1y9igXr
"You didn't have another fight with Leo, did you?"523Please respect copyright.PENANACAYSivcLlZ
Angel furrowed her eyebrows as she looked at Carly. "And why do I want to pick a fight with him?"523Please respect copyright.PENANAmCth8K47pU
"You look irritated. That's why I asked."523Please respect copyright.PENANA5fiXMKODx2
Angel faced the glass 523Please respect copyright.PENANAFxAbNnv3QV
window. "You know he and I can't fight each other within the four walls 523Please respect copyright.PENANA0Jmx0zVu7l
of this house. We were with Amanda almost the whole time."523Please respect copyright.PENANAdX6NFDpWvy
"You were?" Carly sounded surprised. "How did the two of you handle each other with her around?"523Please respect copyright.PENANAusCsN6Q0p2
"We didn't. Immediately she left we had a chat. And it wasn't a good one."523Please respect copyright.PENANALcqyP6LvWA
"Okay, I am not ready to hear what you two had to say since I know it concerns me."523Please respect copyright.PENANAMQgFQkzmOp
Angel rolled her eyes. She didn't say a word more as she went back to her book.523Please respect copyright.PENANAC5Ed7JwAZA
"I heard these two women, Amanda and Mrs McDonell talking just now," said Carly changing the topic.523Please respect copyright.PENANAiUdHo5RvC2
"You know I'm not in the mood to gossip," Angel answered, her eyes still on the book.523Please respect copyright.PENANAUkOLrFqalt
Carly didn't listen to her sister as she continued, "I heard them talking about Leo. And someone called Kim."523Please respect copyright.PENANArgLkzk6weH
"Kim happens to be the woman Leo was supposed to marry."523Please respect copyright.PENANAKsSUcousAH
Carly's mouth fell open 523Please respect copyright.PENANACxzs2fCdM9
as she had a surprised look on her face. She looked at Angel, who 523Please respect copyright.PENANATC9yqAGI58
happened to be still looking at her book and not at her sister.523Please respect copyright.PENANAd2D92DFUFi
"Are you serious? You must be joking," said Carly as she shook her head and tried to laugh like it was funny.523Please respect copyright.PENANA0V7lCQ3tgu
"Do you think I would 523Please respect copyright.PENANAVrWyXqX4Wr
lie to you?" This time, Angel turned to look at Carly. "If you hadn't 523Please respect copyright.PENANA4Al5sv1FSP
gone out to the mall, maybe you would have heard it for yourself."523Please respect copyright.PENANANC6iApk3EZ
"You sound like going to the mall is a bad thing."523Please respect copyright.PENANAEPuyuQsxpP
"For you, yes because 523Please respect copyright.PENANA0Z3T28Ahyh
you were just from mourning. I know we have to try and distract 523Please respect copyright.PENANARjwI8eBwad
ourselves from our mother's passing, but did you seriously have to go to523Please respect copyright.PENANANHuDsngF5s
the mall?"523Please respect copyright.PENANAJIsSlq6gkI
"Sorry, I couldn't help myself. It was fun though. Look at the amazing heels I got."523Please respect copyright.PENANASQrwWrQHRE
Carly gestured towards her feet with a grin on her face. Angel looked down at the heels. She sighed and shook her head.523Please respect copyright.PENANAo6dVoRA1wm
"Are you really not listening to me or what?" Angel asked. "You should be worried."523Please respect copyright.PENANAJxm2TU7Poi
"Worried about what?" Carly instantly stopped smiling.523Please respect copyright.PENANA5bJAfZpCR8
"About Kim. I feel she is really going to cause trouble for us if we ever get to meet her in person."523Please respect copyright.PENANAeBJLETG1hS
"Well, she's coming over so, I guess you'll be worried."523Please respect copyright.PENANArMC0PgEhMI
"She's coming here?" Angel couldn't believe what she was hearing.523Please respect copyright.PENANA0e0V8Epb80
"I heard Mrs McDonell say that she invited her here for dinner. Amanda didn't sound too pleased."523Please respect copyright.PENANAtTbggLtWWH
"The way I see it, she thought Kim wasn't good enough for Leo."523Please respect copyright.PENANAXsPuEzFzN8
"I wouldn't worry about 523Please respect copyright.PENANAUGm4dN5Ku0
Kim though." Carly leaned further back on the chair to relax. "For one 523Please respect copyright.PENANAHmUUqvQlLg
reason only. She doesn't know the truth about Leo and I."523Please respect copyright.PENANAiPpswRiIEg
"When a lady's fiancé 523Please respect copyright.PENANAsGtquDjkbD
dumps her on her wedding day, the lady has no other option but to think 523Please respect copyright.PENANAqew4gjT9tM
that there might be another woman."523Please respect copyright.PENANA7GlCdR86Oh
Carly looked at Angel. "An accident happened that day."523Please respect copyright.PENANAKVoFiSi5T6
Angel felt like 523Please respect copyright.PENANAD1r8AKyo3b
squeezing the life out of Carly but she looked the other way instead. 523Please respect copyright.PENANAEmfmh9qNnt
"Stop using the accident as a scapegoat. It's irritating."523Please respect copyright.PENANAv22vHFyEi2
"Then what should I say? That Leo fell for me?"523Please respect copyright.PENANA3QsS50UHgR
"Well, what do you 523Please respect copyright.PENANArm2L0qRCrd
think?" Angel faced her sister again. "If the accident happened and 523Please respect copyright.PENANApdvoD8mPDa
delayed the wedding, Leo would have still gotten married another day. 523Please respect copyright.PENANAGA7KaImor2
But instead, Leo falls for you, the accident happens and then he dumps 523Please respect copyright.PENANAhENSisIhih
Kim for good."523Please respect copyright.PENANANzuAbJ392y
"Okay, okay, I get it," said Carly as she sat upright. She couldn't take anymore of her sister reminding her about everything.523Please respect copyright.PENANAqqmLimLbtB
Angel placed the book 523Please respect copyright.PENANAcPKo5clfUr
she was reading closed on her lap and turned the wheelchair around. She 523Please respect copyright.PENANAKsJIMD1Fbk
started to wheel herself out of the room.523Please respect copyright.PENANAXZ2g4F7hu0
"Where are you going?" Carly asked as she looked at her sister.523Please respect copyright.PENANAi1t1kcZ5T5
"Reminding you about what you've done is getting on my nerves," Angel answered as she continued on her way.523Please respect copyright.PENANAe45I9M5Xdk
Carly got up from her chair and quickly rushed over to her sister, grabbing the handlebars from behind to stop her from going.523Please respect copyright.PENANAgPaqk9uKZg
"Why can't you learn to move on from all this, Angel?" Carly asked.523Please respect copyright.PENANAT7kKwVw870
"You want me to move on 523Please respect copyright.PENANACNyGU6YTwn
after what you've done?" Angel asked without turning to look at her 523Please respect copyright.PENANAIyh3b6U1xW
sister. "You not only betrayed me, but mum as well. She was right when 523Please respect copyright.PENANAJtLaT32L8s
she said something was up with you the moment you came home in the early523Please respect copyright.PENANAXPfJT6ihWx
hours of the morning and found a stash of money in your bag."523Please respect copyright.PENANABsxOoXrWDj
"What?"523Please respect copyright.PENANABU0q8xmgIj
Carly felt powerless as 523Please respect copyright.PENANALtOg8Dt4SU
she slowly let go of the handlebars. Angel shifted a little to the side 523Please respect copyright.PENANAu5vv8Jsb3J
on her chair so as to look at Carly.523Please respect copyright.PENANAN7opARqIzF
"You heard right," said Angel. "Mum had a feeling about you long before I even knew anything."523Please respect copyright.PENANATs01PUkUGi
Carly went pale and she felt her mouth go dry. "When did she tell you this?"523Please respect copyright.PENANA1zBQ6asaHD
Angel hesitated before she answered, "the day she died."523Please respect copyright.PENANAI8QoHm0Yw2
Carly felt her knees 523Please respect copyright.PENANASE8xHxmSnu
lose their strength and she felt like she could drop to the floor any 523Please respect copyright.PENANAZ7KO0gyML2
moment. She took a few steps back away from the wheelchair. She felt 523Please respect copyright.PENANAEOywoZQPC3
lost and confused.523Please respect copyright.PENANAuvZv7uWiCa
"At least you now know 523Please respect copyright.PENANANqSUHuJ9Hc
that mum knew something was up with you," Angel continued. "She just 523Please respect copyright.PENANAWjjPfl1TgP
wasn't sure what it was. I'm glad she didn't know what you were truly up523Please respect copyright.PENANAdOJm9QqW9q
to or else that would've killed her instead."523Please respect copyright.PENANApOyWh9aZYd
"Don't say that, Angel," said Carly. She felt like tears were about to drop down her cheeks.523Please respect copyright.PENANAkmE4Lm4Xrl
"But it's the truth." 523Please respect copyright.PENANAlbzJCrv3jb
Angel fully turned her wheelchair around so as to look at Carly straight523Please respect copyright.PENANAQ4hpiHiEUw
in the face. "You know mum wasn't feeling too well at times and finding523Please respect copyright.PENANAsDKqrv2Ubu
out what you did would've killed her. I'm glad the good Lord took her 523Please respect copyright.PENANAdXjU5Q0axC
away instead because if you did you would have felt my wrath."523Please respect copyright.PENANAutdeq49lOb
Carly flinched at her sister's words. Angel was upset for sure and Carly knew better not to say a word.523Please respect copyright.PENANADTS5AI9YT6
Angel looked on at 523Please respect copyright.PENANAYPqiEw0IPZ
Carly. She was one person who in the past never liked to see her sister 523Please respect copyright.PENANAZzwAk9Jb35
cry. Whenever she did, Angel was always there to comfort her. But this 523Please respect copyright.PENANASOCExozUSl
time, everything was different. She didn't even feel like hugging her 523Please respect copyright.PENANAdA9xCXBGTs
sister anymore.523Please respect copyright.PENANAo1tQuS9Q4Y
"I'm tired," said Angel as she looked away. "I think we've talked enough for today."523Please respect copyright.PENANA9O8CxuJN1w
"Is anything the matter in here?" Amanda's voice came at the door. "I thought I heard someone shouting."523Please respect copyright.PENANA5gq9lGh7iV
Angel flinched by the 523Please respect copyright.PENANAgGXKCuAeck
sound of Amanda's voice and she silently winced. She prayed that Amanda 523Please respect copyright.PENANAb5V8CHnecR
hadn't heard their whole conversation.523Please respect copyright.PENANAOqHLgMyHTx
Angel turned the wheelchair around and saw Amanda by the door. She looked on at the two sisters with a worried look on her face.523Please respect copyright.PENANA08Oxiur4gc
"It's nothing, Amanda," said Angel. "I was just scolding Carly for going to the mall. That's it."523Please respect copyright.PENANA3KaLZTRWIu
Amanda continued to look523Please respect copyright.PENANAiM7uWzf2cg
at Angel, then went on to look at Carly. For a moment, Angel was 523Please respect copyright.PENANAMODAJWF6Yy
praying for Amanda to believe her. But with each dying second that 523Please respect copyright.PENANAYEShKdY829
passed, it looked like that was far from happening.523Please respect copyright.PENANAXFWHgCPlbR
"Well, you should have 523Please respect copyright.PENANAzVLZ7OqWV3
talked to her properly, don't you think?" Amanda asked with a smile on 523Please respect copyright.PENANA7yMG5XgEWO
her face. "Look, you almost made her cry."523Please respect copyright.PENANA6MchgEtwZe
"Angel could be a bully when she wants to be," said Carly, trying to hide the hurt in her eyes.523Please respect copyright.PENANAx3NByqPSu2
"I can let this go for now. But Monday, you should be getting back to school, young lady. It's important."523Please respect copyright.PENANAERvico5pvP
"Of course."523Please respect copyright.PENANAbCT7uPkMoI
"Angel only wants what's best for you. You should be considered lucky to have a sister like her."523Please respect copyright.PENANA1OjO8upb2o
Carly smiled at Amanda and said nothing more.523Please respect copyright.PENANAyryw3zr5JA
"Well, I better go and 523Please respect copyright.PENANAMF8YvSkkZz
try to relax myself," said Amanda as she started to turn around in her 523Please respect copyright.PENANAiEAWPrg84M
wheelchair to leave the room. "Before the evening comes, I better be on 523Please respect copyright.PENANA35RGXy3Rd2
my best behaviour."523Please respect copyright.PENANAS6soNZcTBG
"Why do you say that?" Angel asked.523Please respect copyright.PENANAvSdo4hAWTg
Amanda looked at Angel. "Because my very loving daughter in law invited a guest over."523Please respect copyright.PENANAJzAsL5WKD7
"You sound really sarcastic," said Carly. "And not in anyway happy."523Please respect copyright.PENANAgeFiaGNmVR
"You're right, dear. I'm not."523Please respect copyright.PENANAw9MhqfEnIx
"Could it be that you don't like who is coming?" Angel asked when she already knew the answer.523Please respect copyright.PENANANP5o7JDa2b
"It's not that I like the person. I'm just worried about Leo because it's his ex fiance coming over."523Please respect copyright.PENANATlgXa85a5D
Carly went pale behind Angel and Angel was as still as a statue.523Please respect copyright.PENANAvn64dmMAvr
"Why don't you tell Leo about this?" Angel asked.523Please respect copyright.PENANAorPqsonzi8
"I want to but if Leo doesn't show up, his mother will know I had something to do with it," said Amanda.523Please respect copyright.PENANAa9mPLY3cjv
Carly looked at Angel 523Please respect copyright.PENANA2eBAWgiG0s
who was busy contemplating over the issue. Amanda wasn't the only one 523Please respect copyright.PENANAT0SzyvX6DH
who didn't want Kim around here tonight. And if any one of them called 523Please respect copyright.PENANAbmd1YgcPOn
Leo, he probably wouldn't show up.523Please respect copyright.PENANAPrc3T04vHZ
"So, you're saying that you would rather let this happen?" Carly asked.523Please respect copyright.PENANAIr7XWDsNtA
"What should I do?" 523Please respect copyright.PENANAShIRVztjQF
Amanda asked as she shrugged her shoulders. "My hands are tied and my 523Please respect copyright.PENANAfuFrBvc8cF
son wouldn't like it if his wife and I argue over Leo not showing up for523Please respect copyright.PENANA5jnozVfH0V
dinner."523Please respect copyright.PENANAC61YuA5d7z
"What if I inform Leo instead?" Carly asked.523Please respect copyright.PENANAS3EKvRPhcX
"Are you serious?" Angel523Please respect copyright.PENANADRcqfdRUPA
asked as she looked at Carly. "You heard Amanda. Even if anyone were to523Please respect copyright.PENANAv62FjIELRA
inform Leo, Amanda will still get blamed if he doesn't show up."523Please respect copyright.PENANAsfXywFAqg1
"Looks like someone knows Bertha more than I do," said Amanda with a sarcastic smile on her face.523Please respect copyright.PENANAZCswOBMSFS
"I wouldn't like to know523Please respect copyright.PENANA6d0ejLyuVJ
her, trust me," said Angel as she looked at Amanda. "But I would rather523Please respect copyright.PENANAp3y7lE30h6
know her now so that I won't be surprised by her temper tantrums in the523Please respect copyright.PENANArI3vZ5wETa
future."523Please respect copyright.PENANAyc7wGVo6wE
"I like your thinking," said Amanda. "Just don't get into any trouble with her."523Please respect copyright.PENANAJwkKKFEp7v
"Trust me, I wouldn't," said Carly. "So, are we really going to let this slide? I mean, not tell Leo."523Please respect copyright.PENANAQPgjJogw0F
"We shouldn't," said Angel. "Because Leo's problem doesn't concern us. We only just moved in to this house."523Please respect copyright.PENANAn3iV52SCa5
"But Angel..." Carly started but Amanda interfered.523Please respect copyright.PENANATnYhKKSeWO
"She's right, Carly," said Amanda. "It's best you don't get involved."523Please respect copyright.PENANAF0mPlnYyVf
Carly almost gave a 523Please respect copyright.PENANAXL4uSmvSgC
frowning look at her sister but controlled herself. She really didn't 523Please respect copyright.PENANAwAc30tDOjC
want Leo to get here and find Kim waiting for him at the dinner table. 523Please respect copyright.PENANAiZpD7SoWNx
How she wished she could tell him what's going on, but like Amanda, she 523Please respect copyright.PENANAcYDDv1E3kd
couldn't. She didn't want Amanda to get in trouble with Leo's mother and523Please respect copyright.PENANAzDUkeFBIYT
Angel would only get more upset with her than she already is.523Please respect copyright.PENANACjwKZ7jwRs
"I'll be going now," said Amanda. "You two take care."523Please respect copyright.PENANAz9KNhcNaGP
Amanda turned her 523Please respect copyright.PENANAmdk5NByNaK
wheelchair around and left the room. The two sisters waited for a good 523Please respect copyright.PENANA5rg5wsbTsy
few minutes to make sure Amanda wasn't within earshot.523Please respect copyright.PENANAVKs0QJCOYK
"We've to do something, Angel," said Carly.523Please respect copyright.PENANAS2YqBanlJo
"With what?" Angel asked.523Please respect copyright.PENANAYIQchQhIet
"You know what I'm talking about. Somehow we need to let Leo know that Kim is coming here."523Please respect copyright.PENANAGzk0QfGaoJ
"Carly, you aren't going523Please respect copyright.PENANASa7O1bjxYW
to call Leo. You heard Amanda. Leo's mum is like a pain in her 523Please respect copyright.PENANAKDROl5RXRt
backside. You don't want to make it worse."523Please respect copyright.PENANADIp1rUcdGq
"But aren't you scared?"523Please respect copyright.PENANA5MXPH5aVo0
Angel raised her eyebrow523Please respect copyright.PENANAAuw0FhiGRQ
at her sister. "Oh, now you're taking my words seriously when I said we523Please respect copyright.PENANAdHo9nK02NX
should be cautious of Kim, aren't you?"523Please respect copyright.PENANA6vxYxmhOOy
Carly didn't say anything as she continued to look at her sister.523Please respect copyright.PENANAb9tKg1TKrF
"I'm glad you've changed523Please respect copyright.PENANAk20WKuyS4i
your mind," said Angel with a slight smile on her face. "Maybe you'll 523Please respect copyright.PENANAlzVGlEmsKH
realise that all this isn't a joke and I was serious when I said Kim 523Please respect copyright.PENANA0bYFvbdSbw
would be a problem."523Please respect copyright.PENANAlGbFJvJRA7
"You seriously aren't going to do anything?" Carly asked.523Please respect copyright.PENANAO2lzDR2wY3
"It's none of my 523Please respect copyright.PENANAgyQ3fJi77C
business, Carly. Our hands are all tied here. If Kim is coming for 523Please respect copyright.PENANA8M16V49RdK

room, Carly felt helpless. There was nothing she could do about dinner 523Please respect copyright.PENANATSBpngHgWI
