Chapter 278: Originally Clever

Mrs. Brown cried heartbrokenly, unable to contain her sadness when she saw James Parker's leg.

James Parker was quite calm: "It's in the past, you don't need to dwell on it. Instead, how did you end up like this? You were fine..."

"He did something unforgivable to me, and I'm sure he's had enough of it. Let's not talk about him anymore. Is your leg not going to get better?"

Mrs. Brown became concerned for James Parker. They hadn't seen each other for many years and had a lot to talk about.

Amelia Sanchez and Albert Brown returned, bringing some fruits with them.

After greeting them, the couple went to the kitchen. Mrs. Brown got up to help, but Albert stopped her, "You go and catch up with Uncle James. I can handle this."

Mrs. Brown didn't know what to say. She felt disappointed in her son, but also grateful. If not for this son she didn't like, she would have had nowhere to go.
