Emmett stood up, got himself a glass of red wine and savored it slowly. “The kids are getting along fine with their stepmom now. You showing up will just stir up trouble”

Leah stormed over, her emotions running high. “But a stepmom will never be their real mom! You need to think about how the kids feel too.
