Emmeline returned to the café, still feeling angry about what had transpired earlier.

At least she managed to teach Alana and Alondra a lesson. That made her feel a little bit better.

“I’ll replace it with a glass one,” Emmeline said and waved her hand. “That settles it.”

“Alright then.” Daisy took the car keys and left.
