"Donald cheated on your mother on purpose to infuriate her.For all these years, I've been living with them and watching.I know that Donald loves my sister very much, but he loves her too humbly.Sometimes he's strict with you, but he doesn't mean it to be harsh to you, rather, it may be because he loses control of his temper.Don't blame him."
