Chapter 666:
Elianna intentionally extended the evening. She wanted to keep Yelena there longer, knowing Yelena might be anxious to check on the cat now. Yelena, however, remained perfectly calm, showing no sign of impatience.
Amilia was another story, barely able to sit still.
She attempted several times to speak with Dina, but Dina, busy chatting with Callum and the rest, paid her no attention.
When Elianna finally dismissed them, Amilia could hardly contain herself. She tugged Dina upstairs, urging her, “Mommy, come on p>
Dina fully understood Amilia’s eagerness. She had intentionally allowed Amilia some space to let off steam.
Dina had overlooked Amilia’s attempts to interrupt earlier, hoping to prevent any impulsive remarks.
“What is it?” Dina finally asked.
Amilia swung Dina’s hand back and forth, her eyes wide and pleading. “Mommy, can we get a cat p>
Dina immediately said no, knowing Elianna’s stance. “No, your grandmother doesn’t allow cats here p>
Yelena might have been out of the loop and unaware of these rules, but Dina, as Elianna’s daughter-in-law, was well-versed in her preferences.
“But why not? Is Grandma allergic to cats like Kevin?” Amilia inquired, confused.
Dina shook her head. “No, Grandma doesn’t have allergies to cats p>
Amilia grew even more perplexed. “If Grandma isn’t allergic to cat fur, why can’t we have a cat? Mommy, I really want one p>
Dina explained, “Cat fur gets everywhere, and Grandma thinks it’s messy p>

Amilia pouted, clearly frustrated. “Just because of a little cat fur, she doesn’t like such a cute kitty p>
As she sulked, an idea struck her, lighting up her face. “Mommy, what if we move out? Like Uncle Callum and his family p>
Before Amilia could finish, Dina sharply cut her off. “Absolutely not p>
Amilia froze, shocked by Dina’s firmness. It was unusual for Dina to be so strict, and her intensity startled Amilia.
“Why is Mom so upset about just moving out?” Amilia wondered silently.
Just then, Kaiden entered the room.
“What’s going on here? I could hear you all the way outside,” Kaiden asked.
Seeing her father, Amilia felt supported and burst into tears. “Daddy p>
Kaiden embraced her, soothing her gently and said, “It’s okay, sweetheart p>
Comforted, Amilia cried even harder.
Dina massaged her temples as she watched them, overwhelmed.
Once Amilia calmed down, Kaiden turned to Dina. “Honey, what happened? Why were you so harsh with her p>
Dina sighed. “I’m sorry, I just lost my temper. We’ve spoiled Amilia a bit, and now she’s pushing boundaries. She suggested moving out just to keep a cat. If your mom and brother heard that, they’d be upset p>
Kaiden stroked Dina’s hand reassuringly. “I understand it’s tough for you with all these family rules. Callum managed to move out when he found the right moment. It would be difficult for us to do the same. Besides, I don’t want to leave. Here, I can look after Mom and stay close to my brother. We can handle things together as a family p>
Dina nodded. “I feel the same way p>
