Once I got home, I was feeling uneasy, but I couldn't directly ask Ariel about it. Then, my mom called. She already knew that Ariel had come to abroad, and Harry was the one who told her
"What on earth does she want? Is she deliberately pestering you? You and Damon are divorced already, what else does she want?" My mom was burning I responded with a hint of irritation, "She's here as a student, and happened to work at Harry's company Some stuff happened, and she quit"
"Did Damon go too?" Mom hit the nail on the head.
I didn't deny it.
Mom was really pissed. She thought Damon and Ariel were just bullying me. She wanted to give Damon a piece of her mind over the phone, but I stopped her. "Mom, just let me handle this. You and dad need to take care of yourselves, especially you. You can't get too worked up, okay?" I worried that mom's health might take a toll if she got too upset.
