Tempering Justice with Mercy

But the moment Karen James's family left, Linda James's heart started aching for that sum of money.

She started to blame Finn Taylor. "Why did you throw that punch? Look, because of that punch, our family lost 30,000 dollars for no good reason."

Yvette Larson quickly stood up for her husband. "Mom, I'm sure we both know just what kind of people Karen James's family are. Even without Finn Taylor's punch, their family would've found another reason to take this money from us. Besides, it isn't even the first time such a situation has happened. If you really want to resolve the matter, you have to deal with the root cause of it. There's only one solution: severing all ties with them."

"It's not even the first time I'm telling you to do this, but you've never agreed to go through with it. Not only did Finn Taylor do nothing wrong this time, but he even managed to help you gain respect as an older sister. Don't you think so?"
