Amelia Clarke was momentarily overwhelmed by Jackson Johnson's words.
The family of four who had just come in was none other than the Taylor family.
She recalled what Ciara Taylor and Sherry Taylor were wearing and asked Jackson, "Was the injured girl wearing a skirt or shorts?"
Ciara Taylor was wearing shorts, while Sherry Taylor was wearing a dress.
Jackson replied, "She was wearing a dress. How can a father be so cruel to beat his daughter like that out of anger? It's sinful. If she doesn't make it through, the whole family might fall apart. Didn't you see how desperate the mother was? Even I, a grown man, felt my heart sour just watching..."
Amelia stared blankly at Owen Moreland.
Isaac Taylor's sudden outrage must have something to do with Owen's words earlier. Even when Mia Taylor came to her humbly, even though she couldn't clearly state her request, Amelia guessed that Isaac's company was in trouble and they hoped to use her to connect with Owen.
