Standing outside the room, Jeremy watched Jerlina talking to his mother with a smile. She seemed to be holding up well. He thought after Gina's visit she'd be blue. Turns out, Daisy has cheered her up.
He saw his mom with her usual kind smile. But she can be pretty scary at times like when she forbade him to get in the room.
He could understand his mom is not willing to trust him with Jerlina. It hurt him and he felt like no one trusts him anymore.
Of course, he knew his mom is not that fond of Emma, for some reason. Emma, on the other hand, loves his mom as much as she loves her mom. He could only hope that there comes a day when his mom understands Emma.
Since his mom learnt that Emma's husband is Jerlina's ex, she thinks that truth somehow factored in his decision to marry Jerlina. Maybe Jerlina thinks that way too. But the truth is far from that.
He does have a personal reason for his desire to keep Jerlina close to him, and it has nothing to do with Emma.
