Mrs. Horton pointed at them and said, "Lewis and Keera are back, and they're joining me for dinner. As for you two—"

Before she could finish, Selena smiled and cut her off, "Of course, Grandma! We'd love to stay and have dinner with you."

Old Mrs. Horton was perplexed.

Wait a minute. Was that what she meant?

She frowned, about to speak again, when Marisa, Selena's mom, jumped in, "Oh, Grandma, I'm just a simple woman who's not used to fancy meals. I might not have the best manners, certainly not up to the standard of this family. I hope you won't mind me."

Old Mrs. Horton was shocked.

So what, now she couldn't even ask them to leave? If she did, wouldn't that imply she was looking down on them?

Old Mrs. Horton's lips twitched. Suddenly, she didn't know what to say anymore.

Since she was stuck, Keira gave a light laugh. "Sorry for the sudden visit, but we didn't prepare extra food for you two."

Selena didn't miss a beat, "Oh, that's fine! My mom and I barely eat much anyway. We really just want to enjoy dinner with Grandma."

She then turned to Lewis and Keira with a smile, "Uncle, Aunt, you know, back when Jake and the others were around, they could be a handful. But now that my mom and I have moved back, we plan to spend more time with Grandma. You wouldn't want to stop us from taking care of Grandma, would you?"
