Hubert reprimanded Rooney with a flushed face and a raised voice.

Rooney trembled in fear. Realizing that she had almost slipped her tongue, she quickly closed her mouth obediently.

Helena also glared disapprovingly at her own mother.

Hubert angrily interjected, “Lauren, will you stop spreading nonsense here…”

Harrison said coldly, “Who’s the one spreading nonsense about the truth?”
