Maya glared at her resentfully when Nina teased her. It seemed like Nina was no longer afraid of her Maya Punch.

Stephen looked at the playful kids and chuckled.

He found these kids amusing and likable the very moment he saw them. It was probably because he met them at his favorite place—or perhaps it was because the girls bore a resemblance to Rosalie.

What did she do to the kids? Why did they hate her so much?

“What did she do to y’all?” he asked again.

“She asked the servants to catch us and throw us out of the estate!” Maya replied without holding back.

“Yeah. She’s so fierce! I can’t believe she’s Mr. Levant’s mother! She’s an old witch,” Nina agreed.
