Chapter 32

Leila knows what is about to come next and she desperately wants to avoid it, she tries to peel away from Carmela's side to get back to her room and lock herself inside but Carmela hugs her.

"Mother, no one is bullying me, Leila and I have made up and she doesn't have a problem with me being around Tatum, right Leila?"

Carmela squeezes Leila tight in a side hug, grinning from ear to ear at Adaline.

Maybe just like her, what he lacks is the courage to tell her that her time is up, that he is done with her and that he no longer needs her.

Adaline scoffs, scowling at Leila as she saunters towards the women.
