Chapter 219

“I guess I’ll skip this time. You guys go ahead and enjoy.”

Mary was clearly not pleased. “It seems like you all don’t care about me anymore. Just because I’m getting older, everyone thinks they can push me around.”

Leanne couldn’t help but laughed. “How am I pushing you around? Don’t be so stubborn.”

“You said you were working late yesterday, and today, when you’re not, you still won’t come over. It feels like you’re just brushing me off.”

Leanne had no choice but to lay it all out. “Curtis and I are getting a divorce. It’s not right for me to come back now.”

“What does your divorce have to do with me?” Mary’s logic was crystal clear. “So what if you’re divorced? This isn’t your in-laws’ house anymore; it’s your home. What’s wrong with coming home for a meal?”
