Chapter 79 Protect her child.

Regina was truly enraged, and it was too much for Gladys, just a child, to bear.

Her body shivered, and while one hand held onto Cecilia, the other one wrapped around her.

Cecilia's face, initially just slightly pale, turned even paler in an instant due to Regina's words.

Her lips trembled, revealing a hint of true emotion buried beneath her composed expression.

She lifted her head, her gaze like a deep, bottomless abyss.

"Mom, Gladys is just a child, as you said, she doesn't understand anything, and none of this is her fault," Cecilia said.

As soon as Cecilia finished speaking, Mandy sneered.

"You're quite bold, not only did you let Dad discipline Alston, but now you don't even respect Mom."

Mandy sighed mockingly, then continued, "Hedda, Olive, won't the three of us widows be even more of a nuisance in Cecilia's eyes?"

Hedda, supporting Regina, naturally felt her body trembling slightly in anger. Hearing Mandy's words, she couldn't resist adding fuel to the fire.
