Marissa's Regret
Marissa felt tongue-tied at Leon's harshness. She never knew that one day, her son would turn around and scold her as though she were a child. She looked in Maxwell's direction with tears-filled eyes for help and he instantly came to her rescue.
"Leon, your mum has been doing a lot of soul searching and she regrets all her past actions and unfriendliness towards your wife," Maxwell said calmly. "Going forward, she intends to make amend by first asking for your wife's forgiveness and maybe solidifying their relationship."
"How?" Leon focused on his mum, knowing she would be the one approaching Ella and not Maxwell. "How do you intend to make amend, mum?"
"I'll start by visiting her in person to ask for her forgiveness," Marissa answered.
"What if she doesn't want to see you, huh? Back at the island, you and Yvonne practically drove her out of Nana's house. She was terrified by your harshness that she wanted to return to the city, immediately."
