Mrs. Whitman was also angry with Robert for not living up to her expectations. But when Mrs. Whitman heard her son being belittled by Lily, she showed displeasure in her eyes.
But almost in the blink of an eye, Mrs. Whitman suppressed the displeasure, and a gentle smile appeared on her face as always.
Mrs. Whitman said, "Lily, I know it's Robert who is sorry for you. But today is Old Mr. Whitman's birthday, and he watched you grow up. As a junior, how can there be any reason you can't come to greet him?"
Lily looked at Mrs. Whitman's benevolent face coldly, and Lily curled her lips into a smile.
Lily spoke, "Mrs. Whitman, you should know that it's not that I don't want to stay to celebrate Old Mr. Whitman's birthday, but that Daisy will never give me the chance to stay. And your son is devoted to protecting her... Do you think I haven't been hurt badly by them?"
