Gary was still a little moved when he heard those things being said without him present.
Grace was even more surprised that her daughter would have such an understanding view.
All of a sudden, Grace was stunned and didn't say anything for a long time.
Seeing that Grace wasn't speaking at all, Sylvia supposed that she was in agreement with herself, or at least with part of it.
"Celeste didn't grow up in the same environment as you did," Grace finally still spoke, "So you all should be more forgiving towards her."
"Mom." Sylvia looked up and said in a low tone, "Is it okay to let Gary suffer like that then?"
"Gary is the initiator of everything after all." Grace did not try to favor her son. "He has to take at least half of the responsibility on this matter."
"However, I think she should fight alongside with him. She knew that he got tricked, yet she still chose to leave just like that. Isn't it too much?"
