Chapter 211 We Finally Meet Once More (2)

Holland could no longer hold back. “You are an adult woman. How can you have less self- control than Caroline? She even knew to keep quiet during breakfast out of respect for you, to keep the peace. She knows the importance of a family’s harmony. Must you turn this family on its head?”

Britney might have the guts to shout at Lawrence, but she would never dare retort to Holland. No matter how upset she was, she did not dare to say another word.

“Did something happen that I don’t know about?” Lawrence was a smart man. Naturally, he noticed something was off. He had also guessed that Alice was involved in some way.

However, he did not realize the actual severity of the situation. Perhaps it was because he was unable to imagine something that serious.

He tentatively asked Britney, “Did you and Alice fight?”

In his mind, that was the worst-case scenario.

That was because fights were rare in the Knight Residence, even though Holland screamed and shouted at times.

Marie was a gentle woman with a calming temper who was also very laid-back. She never once reprimanded her daughters-in-law, let alone fight with them.

“All of you are on her side. I did all that for Ethan’s sake! Was I wrong? I did not do anything wrong. You’re the ones who threw away his happiness all for some gratitude!” His words had prompted Britney to burst out once more.

“Ethan married her willingly. No one forced him to do anything. It was entirely his choice. You keep saying you’re doing this for him, but have you asked him what he wants? We do not believe in authoritarian, tyrannical parenting in this household. We never force our kids to do anything they don’t like. When Lawrence chose to venture into business, I respected his decision. Do you think this family needs to sacrifice the happiness of our children just to pay back a debt?” Holland was a hot-tempered man in the first place. Hence, Britney’s attitude utterly infuriated him.
