Deano Zell interrupted angrily: "Enough, what you and Mom did, I'll pretend not to know. Helena... Girls should be kind first, and secondly, they should be reserved..."
With tears in her eyes, Helena asked, "You said I should be kind, but what about Scarlett Glenn? She's so bad, why do you still like her?"
Deano Zell paused and looked at Helena for a moment, then said coldly, "She's not bad... She used to be a kinder girl than anyone else. She's gone through things you've never experienced or thought of. She's been forced to become what she is now, so don't compare your current situation with hers."
Helena blinked, tears streaming down her face. She calmed down, reached out, and held Deano Zell's hand, saying, "I'm sorry, Brother. I'm wrong. I shouldn't compare myself to Scarlett. Don't be angry with me."
