"She said that was the moment she believed the whole thing was possible."

Quiel continues on with his trivia about his grandmother. "Wow, that's surprising to hear, Daddy! I've never thought and imagined that we have a superstar in our family!" Eleana exclaimed, while looking amazed. "Like Great Grammie, just like great granddaughter!" Eliza smilingly commented. "I couldn't agree more, darling." Quiel nodded to his wife in agreement.

Like I was a pathetic soap opera character unraveling before her. Lillian looked up at me like I was pathetic. “We can make this work, Elena,” she said sweetly, rubbing her belly. “You just need to be open-minded. Graham’s right… you’re still young, beautiful.

She faked a smile and nodded her head before replying, “Of course I am Gilbert, what do you think? Well apart from me missing my mom and all, I think I am perfectly fine” She said, but Elena could tell that she was lying because she was fidgeting with her fingers. She always does that whenever she lies or isn’t ready to admit something. “Okay as you wish, but you know I can tell when you are lying right?

It seemed like she was about to swallow me whole. Could you show a little sympathy, at the very least?” “Look in the mirror.

She switches her gaze between Sean and her uncle suggestively. Sean chuckled and grab the chair opposite to her and inclined back. “El, I know that you consider me more intelligent, more capable than yourself.” Sean smirked arrogantly and Elena gaped at him in disbelief. “But you know my heart is very big and it can sacrifice big opportunities after all you are a good helping hand when it comes to work under pressure, also your tiny brain has great innovative ideas.” Elena crossed her arms over her chest and gave him a tight smile. “Oh, the generous and humble Sean Brown.

I grabbed her wrist with both hands as I struggled with her palm whose grip was tightening with every passing second. “Do you think you can stop this? Do you think you can stop me from being with Vernon? Huh? You’re a failure! You don’t even have a wolf! And Trudy me, not even that little thing growing in your womb can stop me!” She growled.
