Alena’s cries could be heard from outside by the time Edmund arrived.

“Dad, please help me. Haven’t I suffered enough in this family? Jaime cheated on me and fled. But I stayed back in this family. I singlehandedly raised your two grandchildren. I have been nothing but a dutiful daughter-in-law to you! My daughter is on the verge of getting sentenced to prison. I can’t let that happen. If Sonya doesn’t come out immediately, I might die. Please do something!”

Ethan was sitting on the sofa while Alena was sitting on the floor close to him as she cried bitterly.

Although she was speaking rudely, he couldn’t get short with her because what she said was true.

His son, Jaime hadn’t been dutiful at all. He caused pain for everyone and fled abroad without caring for his family back home. If it weren’t for Alena who stayed back, the reputation of the Nelson family would have been completely ruined.

Alena had put up with all the bullshit majorly because of her children. Wouldn’t it be mean to take her major source of joy?

Ethan sighed as he stared at the sad woman. Perhaps if not for the terrible family environment, Sonya wouldn’t have turned out to be so spoiled and troublesome.
