109 Just give her up for adoption!

[Cortez Household]

Jessa, the twins, and her husband sat quietly in the dining room. The air was still and nearly suffocating.

"Mom..." Yugi called, his expression dark. "Why did you make an effort to cook for that kid?"

Yuri also couldn't hide her disappointment, glancing at the empty seat around the table. "I'm starting not to like her now."

was more scared of his wife.

"Wife, you should calm down." Lester reached out for Jessa's hand. "The food was great and we enjoyed it very well. Why not pack some and send it to Penny? I'm sure she'll like it." @
