“Keith! What are you waiting for? Let’s leave this house!” Evan ordered. He carefully guided his wife away from her seat. When he noticed Keith’s puzzled expression, he repeated, “Let’s go, Keith!”

“Wendell, Sean!” Evan called. “Let’s go!”

Reality hit Wendell. Evan wasn’t going to pick a fight with Keith. Thus, he glanced at Charles Henderson and said, “Uncle, think about your decision because even I will support Keith.”

“Hop Suey!” Sean said before laughing altogether, 1
