The most important thing right now is to calm Mrs. Thompson down.

When people get impulsive, their brains stop thinking.

“Mom, don’t rush, evidence matters in everything,” Mary Perryne softly advised, “You can’t just blindly accuse Sylvia. Let’s sit down and figure this out! If Sylvia really is responsible, I won’t condone her actions and will insist she apologizes to Viola.”

“If it’s not her, then who else could it be!” Mrs. Thompson glared at Mary Perryne, “She brought Iris White home yesterday, and today, Iris showed up at the hospital with Viola’s ID to get an abortion. Explain this to me!”

Mrs. Thompson had watched Sylvia grow up.

She had always been a handful from a young age.

“Mom, while it’s true Iris is Sylvia’s friend, you can’t just think that Sylvia stole the ID. It’s not fair to her.” Mary didn’t want to falsely accuse Sylvia, the daughter she raised, without any evidence.

Pausing for a bit, Mary continued: “Mom, think about it. How heartbroken would Sylvia be if she wasn’t the one responsible?”

Sylvia might only be guilty of keeping bad company.

It’s not fair to attribute every fault to her just because of that.

Mrs. Thompson was so angry that she was shaking. “Mary, have you ever thought about the impact on Viola if we hadn’t discovered this today? People would shame Viola, accuse her of lacking self-respect, and even say we are unworthy parents!”

“Viola just returned after being gone for so long and you’re already taking advantage of her!”

“Mom, please calm down.”

Mrs. Thompson jolted Mary’s hand away.

Calm down?

How could she calm down?

Viola was bullied by those despicable foster parents in River City, and now that she’s finally back in Capital City, there’s a new group of people harassing her.

“Is Viola your biological daughter or not?” Mrs. Thompson glared at Mary.

Mary took a deep breath, “Mom, I just think it’s unfair to accuse Sylvia like this. Both of them are my daughters, I don’t want to see either of them hurt.”

As a mother, Mary was feeling quite torn.

One was her biological daughter that she lost for eighteen years, the other one was the daughter she had raised for eighteen years.

The love for both is equal.

Mrs. Thompson didn’t want to continue the argument with Mary. She turned to Iris White, “I’m asking you, did Sylvia steal the ID for you?”

Iris White kept her head down, not saying a word.

The situation had escalated beyond her expectations.

She couldn’t even fathom what the scene would be like when her parents arrived.

Pregnant before she was married.

Surely, she has single-handedly thrown the face of the White family!

Viola.

All blames lie with that wretched Viola!

At this point, Iris was even contemplating murder.

Just at that moment. f𝗿𝐞ewebno𝚟𝚎𝗹.𝗰𝐨m

The office door was pushed open once again.

The White family had just arrived from outside.

Seeing Iris White with her face red and swollen, kneeling on the ground, Douglas White and Isabelle Blacksmith were startled.

Their precious daughter was being bullied like this.

“Iris, are you all right!” Isabelle immediately pulled Iris into her arms.

Iris was shivering all over.

Isabelle consoled, “Tell Mom, who did this to you? I’ll get back at them for you!”

Mrs. Thompson snorted.

Upon hearing this, Isabelle looked up at Mrs. Thompson, “Mrs. Thompson, I respect you as an elder, hence the honorific. Our family has always maintained cooperation with the Thompson Clan, so no matter what my daughter did wrong, you shouldn’t bully a child like this!”

Just because the Thompson Clan holds some power in Capital City, they thought they can do anything they want, how outrageous!

“Don’t you ever think that the White family is easy to push around!”

Upon seeing Iris in her battered state, Isabelle was heartbroken.

Which mother doesn’t protect her own child?

Mrs. Thompson laughed, “Child? Mrs. White, have you ever seen a pregnant child about to lose her baby?”

What?

Isabelle was stunned and widened her eyes.

Pregnant?

Abortion?

Isabelle frowned, “What what are you talking about?”

“Instead of asking me what am I talking about, why don’t you ask your righteous daughter!”

Isabelle looked at Iris.

Iris kept her head down, not daring to say a word.

Upon seeing this, Isabelle instantly knew that Mrs. Thompson was speaking the truth.

This shameful thing…!

Isabelle felt like slapping Iris right there and then. Yet now wasn’t the time to berate her.

Upon hearing Mrs. Thompson’s words, Douglas White was also startled.
