Emma immediately noticed the odd tone of her voice and asked awkwardly, "Brenda, what's with your voice?"

Her own voice was scratchy from the lack of sleep, so was that the same case for Brenda?

Brenda sighed heavily and didn't hide the truth from her.

"I didn't sleep well last night so my voice sounds weird. You didn't sleep well either, did you?"

Brenda was honest, so Emma heaved a sigh as well.

"Yes, I was so worried that I didn't sleep all night. After I came back, I kept thinking about it. I'm worried about yesterday."

"Thus, I thought it'd be better to call you to talk about this and not tell our kids. After all, their relationship is going great, and they might feel displeased if we mention such a thing."

As she spoke, Emma gradually lost confidence while her voice grew softer, "Brenda, forgive me for being selfish, but I think Ollie and Sam are adults, and they have their own thoughts. We can, at most, discuss it with them, and we can't interfere in their decisions."

"If they really want to be together, and if we, as parents, are in their way, it'll hurt their feelings."

Brenda remained silent for a long time, and only the sound of her breathing was heard over the phone.

Emma was a little anxious, "Did I say something wrong?"

"No, you didn't."

Brenda shook her head. She hadn't slept all night, so she had called Ollie early in the morning when she got up. However, she had a different feeling right then.

Ollie's words echoed in her ears.

"That's because you didn't listen to me. If you were willing to do so, all of this wouldn't have happened!"

"I didn't want to be in a relationship, but you forced me into one. It got so bad until I avoided coming home and moved out instead."

"Now that I'm in a relationship, you're trying to ruin it."
