Chapter 188

Emily's voice cut through the air, sharp with irritation, "I'm still talking to you, and you're already off chatting with someone else? Do you even have any respect for your elders?"

Allison took a deep breath, her gaze low before she looked up with determination. "Grandma Emily, I'm not sure what I've done to upset you, but if me being here bothers you so much, maybe I should just leave?"
