Afraid that Iris would misunderstand, she quickly explained, "Mom, don't listen to him. We are not..."
"Evelyn!"
Marty interrupted her before she could finish her sentence.
Marty stood up and walked to her side. He reached out and held her in his arms. Although his voice was low and gentle, it had a threatening undertone.
"I know that I have made you angry these two days, so you're throwing tantrums with me. But after all, we have been together for so long. We can't keep fighting over such a small matter. What's more, Iris is here with us, and you don't want her to worry, do you?"
As he spoke, his arm gave her a little squeeze. The threatening undertone of his words was obvious.
Evelyn was so angry. Being held in his arm, she couldn't move at all. However, she didn't dare to do anything out of line for fear that Iris would worry about her.
