Fitting so many people into a regular car would be really tough. Thankfully, it was a minivan.
Caroline was just about to ask when a shout came from the door.
âWait for me! Iâm coming too!â Jamie rushed out, with Freya following closely behind.
The Shentons were instantly shocked by the voice.
âFuck! The crazy woman is coming too?â Brandon said fearfully.
Gregory was trembling. âI donât want to go anymore! Iâm getting out!â
But Jamie had already squeezed herself into the car as their voices faded.
The Shentons cowered in fear.
Caroline sneered, not expecting Jamie to have such an effect on them
Jamie glared at the Shentons, then turned to Caroline. âI want to come too, Carol.â
âSure,â Caroline agreed.
Tyler and Liora giggled on the side. These people are so scared of Madam Jamie, huh?â
The Shentons remained silent and kept their distance from Jamie during the journey.
Upon arriving at the restaurant, the Shentons scrambled out of the car as if their lives depended
on it.
The waiter guided them to a long table inside. He smiled and asked, âMs. Shenton, will your
children be having the childrenâs menu again?â
âYes, Iâd like the truffle steak for myself. What about you, Jamie?â Caroline asked.
âIâll also have a childrenâs menu,â Jamie replied.
The waiter took their orders before attending to the Shentons.
Brandon waved his hand impatiently. âYou were busy taking orders but didnât bother to give me a
menu.â
The waiter smiled and handed him a menu.
Brandon glared at him. âTerrible service!â
His expression shifted as he realized the menu was entirely in Ylesirese.
Seeing Brandonâs confusion, Jade asked, âWhatâs wrong? Why havenât you ordered?â
Brandon whispered, âStop pressuring me, Mom! I canât read it!â
âYou canât read a menu?â Jade exclaimed. âUseless!â
She took the menu, and her eyes widened in shock. âWhat kind of restaurant is this?â
Jade spoke loudly, drawing disapproving glances from other diners.
Caroline intervened with a smile. Just bring a few courses, please.â
âOf course, Ms. Shenton!â
â
The Shentons fell silent after their embarrassing moment and sat solemnly.
Soon, the childrenâs meals arrived.
Lioraâs eyes lit up âThe ice cream is here!â
The waiter placed the ice cream in front of Liora. âYou really love ice cream, Ms. Liora.â
Liora responded, âYou know me well, Mr. Waiter!â

Liora picked up a spoon, ready to eat, when suddenly a hand reached out. In an instant, the ice. cream
was snatched away and placed in front of Gigi.
Liora was shocked. âMâMy ice cream
Carolineâs expression turned serious. âEach childrenâs meal comes with ice cream. Why are you taking
Liaâs?â
âBecause. I want to!â Brandon emphasized each word, his gaze challenging Caroline.
Without warning, Jamie stood and grabbed Brandon by the collar. âYouâre going to get yourself
killed!â
Jamie raised her arm and slapped Brandonâs face forcefully. Her eyes were red as she continued to
strike him âHow dare you take Liaâs ice cream! Are you tired of living?!â
âGah, youâre mad-â
Jamie delivered three more slaps. The Shentons watched in astonishment, lacking the courage to
intervene.
