Upon hearing what Tina said, Mandy looked even more embarrassed.

"Mom, you can go upstairs first. I want to talk with Aunt Tina alone," said Jean as she looked at Mandy. But Mandy refused, "Jean, I don't think..."

"It's okay. I'll be fine." Before Mandy could finish her sentence, Jean sent her off. Then Jean sat next to Tina and said, "Aunt Tina, it's good that you're here. You can ask me about any subject that troubles you. I won't hide anything from you."

"It's good that you think so. Julia and Terence have been married for three years, and he is your brother-in-law. I hope you can behave yourself. Don't do anything to embarrass yourself," said Tina in a rude tone.

Despite Tina's harsh words, Jean's expression didn't change. Instead, she revealed a smile and said, "Aunt Tina, you must have misunderstood something. You think that Terence divorced Julia for me, don't you?"

"It's the

ree years that I had been abroad, I had tried my best to forget everything between Terence and me. I told myself that he was my brother-in-law and I couldn't do anything to hurt Julia. By distancing myself, I thought they would finally be happy. But as you can see, it turned out like this."

After a pause, Jean continued, "I thought that I finally moved on. But the moment I saw Terence, I realized that I had never forgotten him in the past three years. I believe that he is the same as me.

Since Julia and Terence are divorced, he has the right to pursue his happiness. That is also the same for me. So, I'm sorry. I won't agree to your request. I love Terence. He already corrected the mistake from three years ago. It took me tremendous effort to wait for this opportunity. I can't afford to give up."

Tina was so enraged that her face reddened. "Are you setting yourself against me?" she roared.
