Mark Reed had already told them that Little An was not his flesh and blood but refused to disclose the identity of Little An's biological father.
The Reeds' mother and father could not accept Little An and insisted on sending him away.
Claudia Ross might agree to other requests, but sending Little An back to his biological father was something she could never agree to, even if it cost her life.
Wasn't this making things difficult for him?
Mark Reed's expression darkened again, "Mom, Dad, I really like Little An. Over the years, I've treated him as my own child. He's a very lovable kid..."
"No matter how lovable he is, he's not Reed blood. Our Reed family doesn't need any illegitimate child!"
Father Reed spoke with righteous indignation.
Originally, he couldn't even bear Claudia Ross, but once his wife spoke up, he had no choice but to reluctantly agree.
This was the greatest concession they could make.
