Chapter 393

Recently, Timothy had been forced into going on many blind dates. If he refused, Donald would threaten to shut down his law firm.

Having only taken over the company a few years ago, Timothy was struggling with the tough environment. In the end, he could only accept Donald’s plans.

Maelis was a woman with no backbone. Whenever Donald suggested setting up blind dates, she just went along with it. Deep down, Timothy felt very disappointed in both Donald and Maelis.

Timothy looked at Maelis and said flatly, “Mom, people aren’t stupid. Our family is a messed–up place. What kind of fool would want to jump in?”

Timothy’s voice was flat, showing no emotion, but his eyes focused on Zinnia. He couldn’t tell what they were saying, but she clearly found something funny.

Her bright smile lit up her face, making her look stunning. In his usually cold eyes, a flicker of strange envy appeared. ‘She left this family. Good for her,‘ Timothy thought.

“Timothy, are you still blaming me?” Maelis said tearfully, sensing his coldness. “I never wanted to force you- your father made me. I had no choice.”

Maelis thought, ‘I never wanted to push my son into an arranged marriage. I tried to talk Donald out of it, but he was firm.

‘If the Lynns hadn’t gone so far, I wouldn’t have had to pressure Timothy, and he wouldn’t have drifted away from me.

‘I’m a family member, yet they’d go so far against me, all for Zinnia. What kind of parents cut ties with their own daughter, just for some girl they just found? They’ve completely lost it!‘

Thinking about the Lynn family, Maelis couldn’t help but get angry.

“If anyone’s to blame, it’s Zinnia-” Her words were suddenly cut off.

“Mom, are you blaming Zinnia again?” Howard, who had been scrolling through his phone, looked up, his voice flat and tired.

Howard thought, ‘These days, everything at home is going wrong. Betty isn’t feeling well, locking herself in her room, while every day Mom curses Zinnia and calls Grandpa and Grandma cruel.
