Once out of earshot of Isla Winslow, Bonnie Jones' expression turned slightly arrogant. Protectively encircling her arms, she conveyed a clear sense of distance.
"Hallie, I understand that, typically, I should be inviting you back to the Winslow family. However, considering Isla's current mood, at least wait until she comes around. Feel free to move in once she accepts you. But for now, I hope you can decline your father's invitation."
Hallie Morgan watched as Bonnie hugged her arms and gave a light laugh, "I thought I already made it clear—I never planned on moving in. I'm quite comfortable living away."
