Bonne breathed heavily and pointed at Larissa to scold. “If you wanted to run away from your marriage, then you should have stayed. away. Why did youe back?”


    Larissa sobbed, “Grandma, this is my home too. Just because Prisci isn’t happy, does that mean I can’te back?”


    “Let me ask you, why did you look for Wesley when you came back?” Bonnie pressed.


    She was old but not blind. Larissa had always overstepped her bounds.


    Tania held Larissa and said with some dissatisfaction, “Larissa <i>and </i>Wes grew up together and have a deep bond. Even if they can’t be a couple, can’t they at least be friends?”


    She really felt it’s okay.


    “You ran away from the marriage first. Where do you get the nerve to be friends?” Bonnie scolded coldly. “All you do is to cry, cry, cry. What a bad luck.”


    “Grandma.” Larissa was ashamed and angry.


    “From today on, you’ll stay in the hospital and take care of me. When I get better, you’lle back to the countryside with me.” Bonnie had already decided to take Larissa away.


    She couldn’t let Ci keep suffering.


    “No way.” Tania became anxious. “Larissa can’t go. She can’t stand the hardship.”


    Bonnic pped the nket and sand finally, “Cille has led –. the countryside for twenty years. You never thought the wa but now meet such heartless parents like you in ther


    The more she spoke, the angrier she became. And her fee grew more and more intense


    Larissa hid in Tania’s arms to cry


    Dillon’s face darkened. “Mom, we’re family!


    No one tried tofort the olddy, instead, they kept fanning the mes.


    Prisci came out and gently rubbed Bonnie’s back to help her calm


    down.


    “Don’t get angry. Your health is more important.”


    She didn’t look at anyone.


    Feeling her granddaughter’s filial piety, Bonnieunched into another round of scolding at Dillon.


    “Back then, when I disagreed with Ci marrying Wesley, you took advantage of my hospitalization and used me to threaten her. What right do you have to call yourself family? Did you ever treat Ci as family?”


    Dillon felt a little guilty and didn’t dare talk back


    After all, three years ago, it was indeed he who used Bonnie to threaten Prisci, making the arranged marriage go smoothly.


    Tania was displeased. “She lived with you in the countryside, but <b>we </b>sent money every month. It’s not like we mistreated her. Do you have to be so harsh?”


    Bonnie snorted coldly: “You fool. You don’t keep your <b>own </b><b>child </b>by your side, and the one you do keep, you can’t teach properly. The Wilburn family will be ruined in your hands sooner orter.”


    “I…” Tania was furious and was about to retort.


    “Get out.” Prisci straightened up and looked at her with a nk expression.


    She kicked them out without the slightest courtesy or respect.


    Tania screamed in anger, “Prisci, I’m your mother!”


    Prisci sneered, “If you don’t leave, I’ll post about Larissa running away from her wedding online.”


    “Prisci…” Dillon’s face darkened as he prepared to lecture her.


    “And you… If you don’t leave, I’ll tell Amelia about you hitting Wesley on the back of the head.”


    The air went deadly silent.


    Dillon and Tania left angrily with Larissa.


    After all, it was all true.


    And Prisci never cared about saving face for her family: she always meant what she said.


    Bonnie who was still unsatisfied grunted, “I haven’t even finished scolding them yet.”


    Prisci burst outughing. It was good that Bonnie still had the energy to scold people.


    “I know you’re getting stronger with age. Just take a rest now


    The heavy atmosphere instantly dissipated


    Bonnie said, “I meant what I said earlier. I really do n <b>to </b>take Larissa back to the countryside for a while.”


    Even though she lived in a big vi in the city with people serving for her. Bonnie still felt uneasy.


    It was only because she couldn’t bear to leave her granddaughter alone and unsupported.


    Now, she wanted to take Larissa away and let Prisci have a few peaceful days.


    “You want to go back?” Prisci leaned on Bonnie’s shoulder and said softly, “I want to go back too.”


    In the three years since Bonnie came to Aetherton, through the worst days of her life.


    <i>ne </i>had lived


    Out in the corridor, Larissa was sobbing quietly in Tania’s arms.


    “Grandma is so biased.”


    They were both granddaughters, so why did she only care about Prisci?


    Tania’s heart broke at her daughter’s tears. “Larissa, be good, don’t cry. Mom won’t let you suffer.”


    She kicked her husband, “We need ideas. Be quick.”


    Dillon didn’t take it seriously. “Mom didn’t really mean it. Don’t take it to heart.”


    “But what if she means it?”
