Midway through the meal, Ethan's phone rang. Elsa's nflashed across the screen.
Ignoring the call, Ethan continued tending to Brenna, letting the phone ring itself silent while he worked on the shrimp.
Barely five minutes passed before Elsa called again. This time, Ethan quietly placed the last shrimp on Brenna's plate, headed to the sink to clean his hands, and then moved to the living room to take the call.
"Hello, Mom," Ethan said in a calm voice.
Elsa was extremely anxious when she discovered viral videos about today's events while scrolling through social media after dinner. Someone had posted the incident online, and it was now spreading rapidly across all major social platforms. Not only did the upper class know about the incident, but ordinary people were also aware of it. Everyone was unanimously condemning the Mitchell family for their shameless behavior.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmElsa didn't know what to do now.
"I thought you toldthe Davies family's situation was resolved! But just now, Minna calledto demand explanations. And this whole mess is blowing up online. Why haven't you fixed it yet?" Elsa's voice was clearly anxious, tinged with a hint of anger. "Didn't the Davies family take your money? How dare they still post about it?" "The incident on the internet? How could they just turn their back on their word like that? Are they expecting both an apology and the money? How could they do that?” Ethan waited patiently for her tirade to end before speaking. “They already returned the money I gave them. Money isn't what they want. If you and Kenny offered a real apology or made a public statement admitting you're wrong, maybe things would settle down. The Davies family isn't being unreasonable." "'Now I'm the one who should apologize?" Elsa's irritation boiled over, her voice rising as she fired off her complaints to Ethan on the phone. “What did I do wrong? Are you tellingthis is my fault?"

"Listen to me. I wanted Minna to join our family as my daughter-in-law. You weren't fond of her, so I figured your brother might be a better match and told her that Minna took her tand made her own choice. I never forced her hand! So how could her family blme for everything now? Do you think she's a good person? She's been eyeing our family's wealth from the start. While she was dating your brother, I showered her with all kinds of expensive gifts."
Elsa was furious. "She didn't mind accepting those gifts at all. Now that my son has run off with someone else, she's decided that everything is my fault? She's the one who couldn't keep your brother interested! Why do I have to apologize now? No way! I couldn't care less about what Minna's family thinks. I refuse to apologize to them! Ethan, you handle this. I refuse to believe they can outmaneuver us."
