A Beautiful Misunderstanding

Albert nodded slightly with a smile. He was again very happy with how graciously she comported herself under the circumstances. She was sensible and reasonable. "It's rare to have a daughter-in-law who is so well behaved. You should treat her well in the future. Don't try to find fault with your family members for an irrelevant outsider." He had made it very clear that he didn't want Valery to become a member of the Rong family.

Mary held her tongue and sulked in silence. She knew very well that Albert bore a grudge against Elizabeth because of the fact that Elizabeth had kicked Luce out of his life. However, he had never shown it.

Perhaps that explained why he didn't like Valery and why he supported Essie.

Noticing his wife's silence, Albert did not address her again and left her to reflect on her actions. He turned his back on her and walked away with Walt and Essie.

"Brother, Daddy, please don't tell Zac about what happened today. I don't want their relationship to turn sour because of me," Essie pleaded as they walked back to the mansion. She already knew that they wouldn't talk to Zac about it, but she asked them this favor to showcase her tolerance and generosity. That way, she wouldn't be blamed if the relationship between Zac and his mother deteriorated.

Albert nodded with appreciation in his eyes.

As the future hostess of the Rong family, she should be generous, tolerant, and magnanimous. Mary was narrow-minded and vindictive. If it were not for the sake of keeping the family secrets, he would not have tolerated her like this.

As soon as she was back in her room, Essie placed some ice on her face, lest Zac came back and see the reddened hand print on her face. Since Albert had already helped her clear the air, letting Zac chastise his mother once he saw her face would be counterproductive.
