Jean kept going, her voice shaky. "Don't tell me you're really planning to let me stay here alone while my husband and kids sleep in the street…"
Olivia rolled her eyes so hard it looked like they might get stuck.
"Seriously?" she muttered under her breath.
She was just about to open her mouth again when Theodore put a hand on her shoulder and shook his head.
"Let the adults handle it," he said quietly. "It's their problem."
Olivia folded her arms and looked away. "If I don't say something, this woman's gonna bring her entire ancestral family next. Great-great-grandpa included."
Adriana let out a small laugh and quickly covered her mouth. Lucas pretended to fix his shoe so he wouldn't start laughing too.
Meanwhile, Jean kept staring at Mary, blinking like she was about to cry.
"Mary, please…"
But Mary had had enough.
"I gave you two nights," she said in a cold voice. "Take it or leave it."
