Audrey quickly signalled Joanna to say something but she turned her face away and acted as if she didn't see anything.
[I can see that silly girl is dying to get herself into big trouble and unluckily for her I am here to stop that]
Audrey grinned and turned to Anthony for help since Joanna won't budge.
"Dad, please don't be mad at Big Sis, ok?" Anthony interfered.
Mr Anderson stared at his second daughter. Her nonchalance irked him and he so much wanted to hit her hard but he knew without being told that this was not the right place for that.
He would surely discipline her at home.
"Go on with what you were doing. Call me if you need anything," Mr Anderson said to the boy who was eagerly waiting for his reply.
"Sure, Dad," Anthony replied, his face lit up almost instantly.
