Lately, Sheila had been more compliant, improving her relationship with Joshua. He was even thinking of introducing her to his parents soon.
Sheila was sure that handling Bianca would be easy once she became part of the Reed family.
Besides, Sheila had a secret advantage.
Sheila texted Haris, “How long do I need to wait?”
Haris replied quickly, “It seems Bianca and her boyfriend aren’t getting along. He hasn’t been around much. I’ll be able to act soon. Have a million bucks ready and wait for my good news.”
Sheila read the message, turned off her phone, and relaxed on the couch.
Stacey came downstairs and noticed Sheila’s wide smile.
“What made you so happy?” Stacey asked, taking a step closer.
Sheila winked playfully. “Mom, just wait and see. I’ve got a nice surprise coming for you in a few days.”
Yesterday, when Stacey learned Joshua planned to introduce Sheila to his parents, she was overjoyed.
