"Mom, what did you just say?" Karina asked as her head snapped to look at her mother.
Ian could see as Karina's hands balled into fists. She was normally the most rational, calm, and collected, but when she snapped it was best for everyone to stay as far away as possible.
"Mom, how did you know he was trying to sell the properties in your name?" Ian asked as he couldn't believe that his mother would just stand by while his uncle tried to take what was theirs.
"Relax." Constance Lim said with a laugh as she realized that her children were over reacting.
"Mom, how could you stand by and let him do that to you?" Karina asked.
"Karina!" Her father scolded. "Let your mother explain."
Karina sat back down and calmed a bit, taking deep breaths.
