Benjamin started drinking porridge, Isla took care of him beside him, the mother and son seed to treat Thomas as nonexistent, Charlotte sensed the awkward atmosphere, and quickly went over, "Thomas! My mom and I are here taking care of Benjamin, you should hurry and go handle your own affairs."
Charlotte’s attitude towards Thomas hasn’t changed from before, still treating him as if she didn’t know he and Alice were together.
"I..."
"I have my mom and my sister here, you can go back and focus on your own matters without worry."
Thomas wanted to say that he had no issues staying at the hospital to care for Benjamin, but he didn’t have a chance to speak up before his three brothers interrupted him.
Both Benjamin and Charlotte were vocal about asking him to leave, and their attitude seed quite resolute. Thomas didn’t persist in staying, "Alright then, I’ll co back in the afternoon."
"Aunt Isla! Sister Charlotte! Third brother! I’ll be off then." Regardless of the other’s attitude, he needed to inform them, and after he did so, without waiting for a response, he lifted his steps towards the door.
"Drive carefully on the way." Charlotte followed him for a few steps, addressing Thomas’s hasty back heading towards the door.
"I got it, sis!"
Thomas didn’t look back at her, waved his hand behind him towards Charlotte, and strode out of the ward. After exiting, he gently closed the door.
Seeing the door to the ward close, Charlotte turned back to the bedside, looking down at the seated Isla, "Mom! You shouldn’t have treated Thomas like that, he didn’t do anything wrong."
She looked at her mom with so dissatisfaction, unhappy with how her mom treated her brother’s friend.
"How did he not do anything wrong? Knowing full well Alice is Benjamin’s wife, yet he insists on clinging to Alice." Last night, despite Alice not revealing who the person was, Isla was certain that Alice was talking about Thomas.
Knowing that Alice had feelings for Thomas made Isla furious, and after returning ho last night, she called Autumn.
Charlotte only learned about the situation between Alice and Thomas when she heard Isla calling Autumn.
Last night, when she first heard about it, she thought her mom was mistaken, but after hearing her mom speak with such certainty, claiming that Alice confessed herself, she gradually began to believe it.
Although Charlotte believed Isla’s words, she had different views and understanding than her mom, "Mom! You can’t bla others for this, if you want to bla anyone, bla you and dad. Even though you knew Benjamin didn’t want to marry Alice, you still forced him to. Now it’s like this, you and dad have responsibility."
She spoke justly, attributing the responsibility to her parents.
"Your dad and I just wanted him to have a good wife, who knew it would turn out like this?" Isla felt angry, helpless, and sowhat resentful, she glared at Charlotte, "Which side are you on anyway? Benjamin is your biological brother, that brat is just..."
"Are you both here to see ? Or to co to the hospital to upset ? If it’s to upset ? You both can relax and go back now, because you’ve successfully pissed off." Benjamin suddenly spoke, interrupting the mother-daughter conversation.
