Pampered by my three brothers: the return of the neglected heiress

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."

The man of the house, Lester, also looked at his wife. But unlike the displeasure of the twins, he

was more scared of his wife.

Not long ago, they had prepared a small birthday celebration for Nina. Sadly, Nina didn't like it and threw a huge tantrum, telling them she was tired and would rather stay in her room. They waited for her in case she changed her mind, but it was already late.

"Hah. Jessa pinched the bridge of her nose, her reaction was calmer than what her husband expected. "That kid... she's starting to show her fangs now, huh?"

"Mom..." Yuri called, a little worried about what would happen now.

Although the family knew that Jessa wasn't as bad as others saw her, they also knew she had some anger issues in the past. What Nina said was hurtful and harsh, the disdain in her eyes was offensive, and how she stomped her feet was truly baffling.

Initially, Nina acted like a damsel in distress. But the longer she stayed, the more Nina showed how awful her character was. She always complained just about anything. It was perhaps. because Nina figured out that Jessa wouldn't hurt her, so she got cocky.

"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." @
