“Mom, I apologize. I’m just worried about you.”
Noemi glared at him but turned to Selina with a softer expression.
“It’s always better to have a daughter. If only Selina were my daughter. Then I’d have two daughters,

Upon hearing Deanna’s words, Brian frowned and responded, “Deanna, that’s not appropriate. I’m still

Selina’s eyes sparkled. “Yes, I’m single.”
“Well, then. You two ought to be together,” Deanna stated with an air of finality.
Brian shot her a warning look. “Deanna, that’s enough.”
