Maclis‘ face paled, then flushed crimson. Rage surged through her. “What kind of mother are you? the shrieked. “I’m your daughter, and yet you defend the person who ruined my family! Do you have any idea what my life is like now?”

“Mom, please, that’s enough,” Yosef pleaded.

That cold, steady stare sent a jolt of panic through Maelis. A terrifying feeling that she was about to lose everything washed over her.

“Sofia, don’t take Maelis‘ words seriously. She’s not herself right now,” Donald cut in quickly, forcing a placating smile. He recognized the disappointment in Sofia’s eyes. “She’s not thinking straight. Let me take her home. I’ll bring her back to apologize once she’s calmed down.”

Without even glancing at Zinnia, Donald grabbed Maelis‘ arm to pull her away. Rage simmered inside him as he mentally berated her stupidity.

Since the Lynn family pulled their investment, the Shaw family had struggled badly. They couldn’t afford to sever ties completely, not yet.

The Lynn family were already losing patience, and now Maelis caused another public scene. People were staring, hungry for drama. What an idiot! Donald shot her a furious glare.
