Mia Foster...
She was just curious about how lody Zachary would react upon learning that her husband was keeping a mistress, but... her mother actually took it seriously.
With a wry smile, she said, "Mom, don’t be so suspicious. I was just hypothesizing, Dad isn’t really keeping a mistress outside!"
Her mother, Evelyn Bailey, clearly didn’t believe her daughter’s explanation, and even started wiping away tears, "How could it be just a hypothesis? Your dad definitely has another woman out there. Otherwise, why on earth would you ask about this?"
Mia Foster...
She found herself between laughter and tears, "Mom, why are you crying now?"
"Your dad has a woman out there, how can I not cry, Mom? All these years, I’ve been with him, through thick and thin, and look at him, at his old age, still keeping a woman outside..." Evelyn Bailey’s sense of grievance grew as she spoke, and bursting into tears, she suddenly got up, muttering to herself as she walked out of the room, "That old coot, I’m going to settle the score with him for good!"
Mia Foster...
Suddenly realized she may have stirred up trouble.
In the living room, Evelyn Bailey was still buried in tears, Edmund Foster sat in the armchair, hands on the armrests, with a clear look of displeasure on his face.
Mia Foster, in her pajamas with a knitted cardigan draped over her shoulders, hung her head and sneaked a look at her mother, then at her father.
Edmund Foster suddenly spoke with a low growl as he saw his wife crying endlessly, "It’s nothing, why all this crying?" Evelyn Bailey defiantly looked up with a pouted mouth, looking very wronged, "Even if it’s nothing, can’t I have a little cry? What if one day you keep a woman outside too! Look at Oliver Shaw, who seems so family-oriented, yet he’s also keeping a woman outside! Now he even has an illegitimate daughter!"
Mia Foster held her forehead, realizing that her mouth had indeed gotten her into trouble. Why did she have to bring up a hypothetical situation? Now her parents were at odds...
As for his wife’s logic, Edmund Foster found it a mix of amusing and exasperating, "Oliver Shaw having a woman on the side is his own affair, what does it have to do with ?"
"How can it not be related?" Evelyn Bailey sobbed again with righteous indignation, "At least he didn’t have any scandals, but you’ve been rumored with that spokesperson!"
Edmund Foster...
Looked displeasedly at his daughter, "You caused this ss, now you solve it!"
Mia Foster reluctantly got up, went over to her mother’s side, sat on the arm of the sofa, and wrapped her arms around her mother’s shoulders, saying in a good-natured voice, "Mom, stop crying. Dad really doesn’t have another woman out there, it’s all because I was being careless with my words, causing you and Dad to have marital discord. I’m sorry, mom, please stop crying, it’s your daughter’s fault..."
"It’s not your fault, what are you apologizing for!" Evelyn Bailey turned to look at her daughter and scolded her unhappily, Mia Foster helplessly pouted her lips, and gestured powerlessly to her father.
Edmund Foster sighed, stood up, and ca over to his wife, grasping her wrist with an unhappy expression, "Enough with the crying, co here, sit over this side!"
After saying that, he pulled his wife over to the adjacent long sofa, and despite his displeased tone, he placed his arm around her shoulders once they sat down.
"Okay, Evelyn, no more crying. You know that over the years I’ve rarely traveled for work, and the few tis I went on vacation, I took you with . If I were to find a woman, I’d need so private space, wouldn’t I?"
"Are you really not keeping a woman outside?" Evelyn Bailey was still holding a tissue, raised her head and looked at her husband doubtfully, Edmund Foster said helplessly, "You... even if I had the intention, I wouldn’t have the courage! With a fierce wife like you watching over every day, how would I have the ti to seek out another woman."
"Hmph, I dare you!" Evelyn Bailey huffed boastfully and slightly disgusted, she shifted her body away, only to be pulled back by Edmund Foster.
