Aurora pressed her lips tightly together, not saying anything, simply coldly watching Mrs. Lewis, who refused to leave.
Others were whispering, muttering all sorts of insults and justifications, creating a buzz. Aurora felt like she was in a marketplace.
"I'm not leaving! Why should I leave? Why isn't this bitch saying anything? Is she guilty? She's just a young thing who seduced my son and took his money, shameless to the core!"
Mrs. Lewis shouted loudly, and Alexander's face flushed with anger. He coldly snapped, "Enough! Do you want your son to be condemned for eternity?"
The sharp rebuke left Mrs. Lewis stunned. After all, she had been a mother for over 20 years and had never been yelled at by her son like that.
She had lost her husband at a young age and struggled to raise two kids on her own. Her son had always been considerate, never arguing with her, let alone raising his voice.
