Chapter 0148

Carmela, steadying Missus Thompson, eyed the Porsche from afar. Her excitement quickly soured into

annoyance, and she spun on her heel to head back.

“Happy birthday, Grandma!”

Amber, with Olivia in tow, stepped out from the passenger side, beaming.” Remember her, Olivia? This

wheels, then found their gazes glued to the Porsche that had just upstaged the anticipated arrival.
