"Second brother didn't say anything. He is just worried about Daddy," Gillian Thompson sobbed, intruding, "Daddy was taken into the emergency room after meeting with her. It's only natural for the second brother to suspect... after all, they've always been at odds..."
"Who are you saying is at odds?" Amanda Leaford rebuked her, and casting a glance at Ethan Hopkins, a touch of impatience crossed her face, "Take your people and leave immediately. You don't deserve to be here."
This was Ethan Hopkins' first time meeting his mother-in-law, and he never imagined that she would be so fierce, so venomous in her words.
Ethan Hopkins's face changed slightly. His gaze wandered, with no place to land.
Facing Amanda Leaford's accusation, Gillian Thompson was no longer as hurt and sad as before.
Amanda Leaford was not her birth mother in the first place, so she had no expectations and therefore no disappointments.
