In her mind, Isabel's life revolved entirely around her son. He was her everything, and Laurel had always kept a tight grip on Isabel because of this.

Before Eva came into the picture and before Isabel's fall from grace, Laurel had actually considered Isabel as a suitable future daughter-in-law.

Even after Isabel was abandoned by her son, and despite her repeated confrontations with the Johnson family-especially her cruelty toward Eva-Laurel had assumed that Isabel still had feelings for her son. But now...

Just moments ago, Laurel had been stunned to hear from her son that Isabel had already married someone else. She wasn't his wife anymore. That news hit her like a ton of bricks.

Eva, too, was reeling. How could Isabel have married someone else?

Kaleb and the others couldn't help but feel unsettled by Isabel's detachment.
