"I would like to see this child." Martha's father requested.
"Impossible." Martha showed her stance to the request.
There was no way she was going to let Cori come here. Her father is someone who liked dictating how the lives of those around him goes. This was the main reason she left and didn't come back, not even once during the past thirty years she has been away. If her father thought she would bring Cori here, then he was joking.
"Don't speak to your father in that manner." Martha's mother scolded harshly.
Martha grunted and didn't say anything else.
Lucas saw the tension between them and said, "Sir, we have no issues with bringing Cori here, but she will leave with us as well."
Martha wanted to speak but Lucas grabbed her hand tightly, making her stay quiet.
She needed this for Cori as this was the only way she knew they could help her, but she didn't want her father to forcibly take Cori away from her.
