Lady Octavia followed with a heart full of dissatisfaction and grievances.
When they were so distance away from the room where Aria Rowlett was staying, Brandon Heath stopped.
He turned around, looked at Lady Octavia who was slowly approaching him, and asked directly when she was close enough, "Mom, why are you here at the hospital?"
Because Lady Octavia had previously tried to take Aria away with her n, Brandon had officially fallen out with her. His normally warm and affectionate attitude towards her mother had disappeared and had turned cold and aloof.
Lady Octavia felt even more wronged when she heard his questioning tone and saw his cold and aloof expression. She had been ignored by her family mbers all this ti.
"Can’t I co to the hospital?" she said angrily and aggrieved, "Why are you so nervous? Are you afraid that I would do sothing harmful to Aria? Brandon, I am your mother, the person who gave birth to you and raised you, and who is closest to you. Why are you being so guarded against ?"
In the past, when Lady Octavia complained about her grievances in front of her sons, she would definitely receive their comfort and reassurance.
But now...
Seeing her like this, Brandon remained indifferent. His handso face still had that cold expression, "I don’t want to be guarded against you, but what have you done to Aria before? Have you forgotten?"
"If you have forgotten, I have not. I can’t trust you now."
"Brandon, you!" Lady Octavia’s face darkened as his blunt words angered her. She exclaid indignantly, "I am your mother! Am I even less important than that girl Aria in your heart?"
"Are you really willing to disregard our mother-son relationship for that woman?"
"Mom, you’re my family, and Aria is my lover. Both of you are equally important in my heart. Aria hasn’t done anything to hurt you, but you’ve targeted her ti and ti again simply because you think her family background and status are not good enough to match mine."
"As her husband, I naturally protect her when soone tries to hurt my wife. If you could treat Aria well for my sake, our family would be able to live in harmony."
"So, you’re saying it’s all my fault? That I’m the one who caused this family to be discordant?" Lady Octavia raised her voice.
Brandon Heath looked at her calmly, "Indeed, it’s because of you. One person has caused the entire family to be discordant. Mom, haven’t you thought it through during this ti and realized the mistakes you’ve made?"
"What did I do wrong!" Lady Octavia clenched her lips. She actually regretted it a little in her heart, but she continued stubbornly, "Everything I did was for the good of our family. It’s you who didn’t understand ! If only you had followed my advice and married a girl with a matching social and economic status to the Heath family, I wouldn’t have opposed at all!"
"Even if you couldn’t find soone compatible with our family, you should have at least found soone from a scholarly family with a clean background. But Aria doesn’t even co from a scholarly family, and her family is a ss! How can I possibly accept that!"
Lady Octavia grew more agitated as she spoke, "With the conditions of the Heath family, what kind of girl can we not find? Many girls in our social circle are queuing up for your selection. But you had to choose the worst of them all. Did you do that on purpose to infuriate ? What’s wrong with my opposition, I don’t..."
