"Since mum has already expressed her dislike for you, there's no need for us to stay here and endure her disdain, let's go," Albert Brown put away his phone into his pocket and initiated to leave with Amelia Sanchez.
Mrs. Brown watched as they headed for the door, her hands clenched. She wanted to vent her anger, but her social status wouldn't allow it. She was a woman who cared deeply about her reputation. But what about her eldest son if they just left?
Unable to bear it any longer, Mrs. Brown spoke up, "Alright, this is my fault, do come on back."
Still, Albert was unwilling; he was determined to leave.
Amelia tugged at him a little, "Mother admitted her mistake, let's stay."
"..."
Albert turned to look at Mrs. Brown, "Just this once, for Amelia's sake."
Mrs. Brown's face was taut with suppressed rage, but she held it back for the sake of securing Nadia Fitzgerald as a daughter-in-law.
"Make the call."
