  Lannie then said in a slow tone, "I know you really like Serena, I didn't object to your marriage this time, especially since you already have two children together.

  "Mom, Serena and Elliot usually have no contact with each other," Elliot quickly clarified.

  Lannie sneered disbelievingly and said, "No contact? Then why did I hear that you give Serena's father five thousand yuan as a monthly allowance? Is that not considered contact?"
