    Ellinor cocked an eyebrow, “Theo, Rome wasn’t built in a day ya know. Your sister turned out this way


    because you and your folks spoiled her silly when she was a kid. You can’t just kick her to the curb.


    Maybe you should have some patience, go a few rounds with her, and let her figure things out so she


    can change on her own.”


    Theo froze a bit. Ellinor always knew how to look out for him.


    He was tough on Veronica, but deep down, he couldn’t bear to really kick her out.


    Where would she go? Back to her flirtatious mom? She’d just get worse!
