Grace couldn't believe what Ling Ye just told her, so she walked past Ling Ye and went through the same path her mom took; she needed to confirm from her mom immediately.
After going down the long corridor, she heard some arguments from a room. One thing was sure: one of the voices belonged to her mom.
"You don't scold me," Mei Li said angrily when a male voice said.
"I am not scolding you; I am just upset... Can't you tell?"
"No, I can't... When you are upset, then you let me know you are upset rather than lash out," she scolded, and the room went all silent.
"Okay, let's not argue... I missed you, okay?" His voice became low and laced with so many emotions.
Grace pushed the door and walked in; she saw the man's hand wrapped around her mom's waist.
They stared at her in surprise. "Uhm...Grace." Mei Li quickly took a step backward as Grace's gaze was stuck on the man who was Ling Ye's dad.
