Chapter 123

Seeing Rosie on the verge of tears, Cody, fearing a beating from Jasper, immediately stopped teasing her. "Alright, alright, Stella is part of your family."

Stella playfully tossed a cushion at him. "You never know when to quit, even going so far as to tease a child."

Cody caught the cushion, grinning ear to ear. "My bad, entirely my bad."

Rosie scratched her head, as if she'd found a solution. "Cody, I'll add her to the drawing."

Stella beckoned her over. "Rosie, do you have something to say to us?"

Rosie hesitated a little. "Yes."

"What is it?"
