Overestimated

Pan Yueyue looked at her mother, feeling even more upset.

She said with tears in her eyes, "Mom, I really can't accept this. Is this how it ends?"

Mrs. Pan frowned. Things had already come to this; was she still going to act up?

"What else are you planning?" asked Mrs. Pan. Without the Li family's support, your father isn't enough to play around with the Jiangs."

"The Jiangs aren't that powerful!" Pan Yueyue said disdainfully.

"No matter what," said Mrs. Pan solemnly, "We can't afford to offend them. Besides, they're cooperating with the Li family right now."

"It's all my fault for overestimating Dad's position in the Li family," Pan Yueyue said in frustration. "That's why this happened."

"Yueyue, what do you mean by what you just said?" Mrs. Pan asked.

Pan Yueyue was speechless.

She felt very guilty that she had let the cat out of the bag.

"Yueyue, tell me the truth. Is there something you're hiding?" Mrs. Pan asked.
