Everyone from the Thomson family was there, so Emma Smith couldn't just get angry. She simply put on a stern face and said, "I'm a bit tired. I'd like to go upstairs and rest."
She was indeed angry. If they said anything else, even if they insulted her private life or accused her of having an affair with her brother-in-law, she wouldn't say a word. But they just had to talk about Little Thomson!
Every mother treasures their child and cannot bear to hear others say anything bad about them. Although Alexander Thomson didn't outright insult her like Avery Clark did, his meaning was clear: he didn't believe the child's identity.
During these days, Robert Thomson had expressed his intention to get a marriage certificate with her. However, her body was too weak at first and she hadn't had her stitches removed, so it was impossible. Later, they had to wait for the DNA test results. But once the results came out, she pretended nothing had happened, clearly being awkward about it.
