章節 481: Express Her Sadness

Scarlett's composed expression gradually shifted. Hearing Maggie insulting her mother, she felt her heart pounding like war drums.

She didn't mind the insults directed at her; other people's opinions did not affect her. However, if her family, especially her mother, were insulted, she wouldn't tolerate it.

Her eyes bore into Maggie with a sharp intensity. She had a strong urge to give the back of her head a powerful slap, but she resisted. She refused to lower herself to such a level. 

Instead, she turned her gaze to Roland, her look calm yet profound as if she were silently urging him to discipline his daughter.

Before Scarlett could say anything to Roland, her words were halted by the anger emanating from Roland's eyes.

"Maggie Gilwynn, apologize to Scarlett immediately," Roland said, striving to suppress his anger. His voice remained calm, but his words only fueled Maggie's fury.
