“What should I’ve done, huh? He was the son of the richest man in the world. The most powerful clan in Ryeso. And he gave us this?” Maricris looked around. “Our things were not even fixed!”

Brandon sighed. “But it was true. You didn’t even tell your daughter that we were going today.”

Maricris stood up. She looked at her husband, who was changing his clothes. “You are still siding with your daughter! That’s why she’s weak like you! That’s why she left us!”

“Dear, I don’t want to fight with you about today.” He went to Maricris and touched her arms. She might be a strict and serious woman. But he had seen how soft Maricris was. That was why he never thought of leaving her, even though sometimes she was too much for him. “Your daughter was a strong woman like you. You just need to trust her. Take a breath.”

Maricris rolled her eyes.
