Olivia rose calmly as Cheryl stormed in, Maddie, Dylan, and Lucas trailing in her wake. Then, my aunt froze, her eyes widening in recognition as she laid eyes on Olivia.
“It’s time for you to face the consequences of your actions, Cheryl,” Olivia said firmly. “I’m here to discuss Jenna’s inheritance – and how you’ve been misusing it.”
My aunt’s face drained of color, turning as pale as a specter. “I… I don’t know what you’re talking about.”
