190 Punishing Vera

"Achoo!" Vera sneezed and dragged the cover to wrap herself even more. "Ma, I can't take it anymore. That child has become my nightmare." She cried

Madam Caroline stared at the girl holding a cup of piping hot tea with a big white duvet wrapped around her and asked; "What happened again?" She had been receiving calls from Vera reporting the happenings in the house to her. The problems were always about Jeslyn and she never sounded this upset and unwell. 

"He refused to see me as his mother and the worst part is that he's very disrespectful to me." Teardrops left her eyes and fell on the duvet. 

The cover was so tightly wrapped around her that one would fear for her getting suffocated. 

"What new thing has my grandson done? This isn't the first time he has disrespected you, is it?.... And why are you wrapped so tightly?" She didn't bother about Vera's white face.
