Lauren was currently embroiled in a heated debate with her father, Peter. Tomorrow, Matthew MacKenzie would be holding a press conference to address Lauren's accusations against him. After his recent meeting with Madelyn, Peter felt like his world had crumbled overnight.
He blamed his daughter for what had happened with Madelyn and how the Castillo family had withdrawn all their support for his campaign. He desperately needed their resources and influence to win the election.
"You can't blame me for this, father. You did this to yourself," Lauren retorted.
"None of this would have happened if it weren't for your actions!" Peter screamed at her.
"I'm not the one who told you to be so high and mighty with Madelyn!" Lauren replied, knowing that her father had confronted Madelyn Castillo-MacKenzie, thinking he could control her.
"As I said, none of this would have happened if it weren't for you!" Peter spat back.
