Chapter 79: Slap

Mary's face turned pale, and she shook her head.

"No... Adriana, you are misunderstanding, I—"

Adriana interrupted her.

"Mom, please. You didn't want him to suffer with us, so you didn't bring him back. Now that our financial situation is a bit better, you're starting to think about him.

Why do you love him so much, Mom? Why can't you let him go? We are your children! We! Not him! Stop chasing after him!"

Aurora frowned and said,

"Sister, you are being too harsh—"

"No! I am not!" Adriana shouted.

"I am telling the truth! Aurora, I thought you understood us and loved us, but now, I think you too are charmed by that b*stard..."

Slap.

Mary slapped Adriana. Her eyes had turned red, and she gritted her teeth.

"He is not a b*stard! Don't you dare call him that."

Adriana placed her hand on her face, her eyes widening in shock. She froze, unable to speak.

The atmosphere stilled.
