The Conflict Between Shelly and the Winters

Nox looked disgusted. "Who wants to treat her as a sister? I don't want to see her at all."

"Nox." Mrs. Winter's face darkened.

Nox was getting a little impatient. "Zoe is here. Can you not talk about Shelly?"

Mrs. Winter pursed her lips. After thinking about it, she realized that it was indeed inappropriate for her to talk about Shelly on such an occasion. Hence, she did not say anything else and changed the topic.

The dinner lasted for two hours. When the group walked out of the private room, they saw Shelly standing at the front desk. She seemed to be talking to the manager, and she looked anxious. However, the manager looked serious.

Suddenly, the manager shouted at Shelly, "You're the busiest person ever, aren't you? You're either leaving early or late! And now, you're saying that your daughter is sick at home. Since you're so busy with your family, why are you still working? Go back and be a full-time wife!"
