Sorry for Your Loss, It's Me, I'm the Loss novel Chapter 176

She burrowed deeper under the covers, blindly fumbling for the phone on her nightstand. She finally found it and answered without opening her eyes.

A warm, gentle voice came through the line. It was Mrs. Gonzalez.

“Yvonne, I’m so sorry I missed your birthday party yesterday. I’ve cooked a special meal to celebrate with you today. Let me know when you’re ready, and I’ll have Matthew come pick you up.”

The sound of her voice finally pulled Yvonne from her sleepy haze. She sat up, rubbing her eyes with one hand while holding the phone with the other. “That’s so kind of you, but there’s no need to trouble Matthew. I can drive myself over.”

“Alright, dear. I’ll be waiting for you,” Mrs. Gonzalez said with a warm laugh before hanging up.

Yvonne tossed the phone back on the nightstand. She had just publicly humiliated Matthew yesterday, and now his mother was inviting her over for a meal. She suspected this was less of an invitation and more of a trap. Still, she knew she needed to put an end to things with the Gonzalez family once and for all.

After a quick shower, she changed her clothes, grabbed her car keys, and left.

The Gonzalez family was still living in their villa in the affluent district. Yvonne rang the doorbell, and after a moment, the door opened. Verna stood there, her chin tilted up defiantly. “You’re here. Come in.”

She turned and walked back into the house without another word, showing none of the courtesy one would expect for a guest. Yvonne didn’t let it bother her; she walked in, her heels clicking softly on the floor.
