"You’re really surprising ." Hailey Hale calmly spoke, not at all angry, "I almost mistook you for Finn Morgan’s mother."
Claudia didn’t quite understand what was going on, and Hailey continued, "Isn’t the scene from TV where his mom takes out a bank card and tells to leave her son?"
"Who are you all?" She chuckled, "Just a passerby’s mother, thinking a few words could make back off? Isn’t that too belittling towards my relationship with Finn Morgan? Or perhaps, you all are just too into the drama."
Hearing this, Claudia was infuriated, thinking she was so ill-mannered!
So she stepped forward a few steps, couldn’t help but raise her hand and slapped Hailey!
Pah—!
The speed was so quick, she hadn’t even had ti to react.
Hailey was stupefied, instinctively covered her face, glaring at her in astonishnt—
"You actually dared to hit ? My parents have never hit since I was little!"
Zachary rce was actually feeling guilty, given that she was the mayor’s daughter, he pulled his emotionally agitated wife, "Let it go, let it go." He softly persuaded.
Claudia, calming down, also felt guilty, but what could she do since she already hit her?
Just then, a phone ringtone sounded, Hailey Hale withdrew her gaze, took out her phone and saw it was her father calling, she suddenly felt aggrieved.
Showing them the lit-up phone screen! Upon seeing the caller ID, Zachary rce and his wife couldn’t help but feel a bit tense.
The ringtone continued, and Hailey Hale observed their expressions.
Just when they thought she’d answer and complain, she hung up the phone right in front of them.
"Honest people don’t play shady gas." Hailey Hale held the phone, staring unblinking at Claudia, "You hit today; I could totally tell my dad."
"Although he’s the mayor of Riventhal, he has connections with you over here in Veridia as well." Hailey assertively said, "You’re just running an enterprise, I could get even for this slap with just a word! Make you pay a painful price!"
These words had Zachary rce’s heart pounding, he believed it.
Claudia’s expression changed slightly, her earlier arrogance receded sowhat.
"lissa rce is lying here now, whether or not it has to do with Finn Morgan, you both know very well in your hearts." Hailey stressed, "Don’t rely on his kindness, or take advantage of his compassion to force him into anything."
"lissa rce is now in a coma, and everyone regrets it, no one is gloating over it." Hailey clearly laid out, and went on to say, "Including myself. Besides, Dr. Shelby will co, he can cure lissa, so please stop the moral blackmail!"
Claudia was taken aback by such imposing montum from soone so young—quite the courage for her age.
Hailey further said, "If you still think Finn Morgan has more responsibility, I actually think the responsibility lies more on you as parents."
The couple was taken aback, having no ti to argue back, Hailey continued—
"Why choose suicide after losing love?"
"There are too many people in this world who love but can’t have; why haven’t they chosen suicide?"
"In the end, it’s because her ntality isn’t strong enough! Since childhood, you haven’t raised her well!"
"So, while blaming Finn Morgan, can you first reflect on yourselves?"
Sentence after sentence from her left the senior mbers of The Monroe Family speechless.
"Besides, I can’t bear grievances." Hailey emphasized, "If you want to make a big deal small, and a small deal nothing, then please return this slap yourself! I don’t want to do it myself."
At the door of the hospital room, Finn Morgan, who had co over with breakfast, stopped in his tracks as he watched this scene unfold.
Not yet understanding what was going on, he saw lissa’s mother raise her hand!
Finn Morgan’s heart tightened, and as he quickly stepped in, Claudia fiercely slapped herself!
This left Finn Morgan in shock.
At the sa ti, Zachary rce and Hailey Hale turned their heads at the sound, locking eyes with Finn Morgan.
