Chapter 228 Alston Won't Shift Blame onto the Child

"So what are you worried about? You can chase them away if you want, but make it clear beforehand. If Gladys throws a tantrum again, don't come looking for me!"

This time, Alston fell silent. Caleb was right; Cecilia didn't even take care of Gladys herself. Him finding someone to look after her was already going above and beyond. Did he have to personally look after her too?

A flash of light in the corner caught Alston's sharp eye, but apart from the black crowd, there was nothing else.

Following his gaze, Caleb asked, "What's wrong?"

Alston shook his head. "Nothing."

He glared disdainfully at the women in front of him, feeling a headache coming on.

He randomly pointed at a few women. "Go change into clothes suitable for playing with children, then come back!"

...

The Baycrest Manor.

When Brian arrived, Cecilia was crouched on the steps, her slender figure buried in her knees, her body occasionally trembling.

Seeing this, Brian felt pity and helped her up.
