Let Me Stay The Night

Anya paused in her tracks, her face as black as thunder. “How dare you little bastards tell on me!”

She would have taught the two kids a lesson if Azure weren’t present.

Lucas and Camila squirmed into Azure’s arms and sobbed piteously, “Great-Granny, save us!”

Azure protected the two young kids and chastised, “Anya, you shouldn’t be so hard on them. They’re just kids. You’re so much older than them.”

“Grandma!” Anya was so apoplectic that she could almost feel steam coming out of her ears.

Her room was in such a terrible mess that it had practically become a huge garbage dump.

“Grandma, Christina was the one who told them to mess up my room. How could you still take their side?”

Lucas and Camila nodded cheerfully with their hands wrapped around Azure’s neck. “Sure! Let’s go and finish all the snacks! We won’t be leaving any for that nasty woman.”

Anya glared at the two rascals and gritted her teeth.

I shall see how long that arrogance can last.

Christina brought her two children back to the hotel after dinner.

Nathaniel had been working alone in the hotel for the entire day.

Lucas and Camila were deadbeat after such a long day and fell asleep promptly after Christina gave them a bath.
