[Cortez Household]
Jessa, the twins, and her husband sat quietly in the dining room. The air was still and nearly suffocating.
"Mom…" Yugi called, his expression dark. "Why did you make an effort to cook for that kid?"
Yuri also couldn't hide her disappointment, glancing at the empty seat around the table. "I'm starting not to like her now."
The man of the house, Lester, also looked at his wife. But unlike the displeasure of the twins, he was more scared of his wife.
Not long ago, they had prepared a small birthday celebration for Nina. Sadly, Nina didn't like it and threw a huge tantrum, telling them she was tired and would rather stay in her room. They waited for her in case she changed her mind, but it was already late.
"Hah." Jessa pinched the bridge of her nose, her reaction was calmer than what her husband expected. "That kid… she's starting to show her fangs now, huh?"
