Third person's POV

"Eda, I know I have a bad temper, but I have been like this for years." Yvonne raised her head and looked at Howard, who was still standing on the roof. For the first time, she realized that she was such a loser and felt sad about herself.

Yvonne had come to her senses. Eda felt sorry for her. She wiped Yvonne's tears with a tissue. "Why don't you go sit in the living room and leave this to me? I'll deal with the things with Rowena as well. Just stay out of it, alright?"

Yvonne looked at Eda with a complicated expression. She wanted to say something, but she didn't.

"Let me handle it. Trust me!" Eda stopped Yvonne from saying anything more.

At last, Yvonne chose to trust Eda. Maybe it was because Yvonne saw the confident look on Eda's face, or maybe it was because Yvonne had realized that she was being bossy and selfish. She made a big mistake, which was almost at the cost of her son's life. She wanted to change.

Eda helped Yvonne to sit in the living room and quickly went upstairs.

Then, she winked at Howard. He instantly took a step back and complained, "What took you so long? I was so scared that I broke out in cold sweat!"

Eda could not help but laugh out loud. "Isn't that good? You're completely sober now, aren't you?"

"Yes, I am!" Howard nodded.

Eda then said with a serious tone, "Mom just mentioned Ash's name. She said that she heard it from you when you were drunk last night. Mom thought Ash was some girl you were involved with. Do you want to tell her the truth?"

"Yes! I'll tell her right now!" Howard had it all figured out when he was on the roof. Ash was his daughter. He didn't need to keep Yvonne in the dark!

Eda nodded. "OK. Get down and talk to her. I think the odds are in favor of you and Rowena."

Howard said sarcastically, "I knew this could work."

They went downstairs. Yvonne was sitting on the sofa in a daze. Though she dressed up, her make-up was ruined, making her seem somehow older.

"Howard... My son, are you alright?" Yvonne immediately rushed over as she saw him. She grabbed his hand and looked at him carefully.
