There is not a single decent person in your family!" Kenny had expected this. The moment he stepped inside, he knew what was coming. He had screwed up badly. He should've ignored Elsa's pressure, should've never conspired with Minna to make Ethan break up with Brenna. Now that the truth was out, he had no choice but to face the consequences.
"I'm truly sorry, Mrs. Davies. I messed up,” Kenny said, his voice steady but full of remorse. He didn't shy away from the moment. If the Davies family wanted to take their anger out on him physically, he wouldn't lift a hand to stop them.

He turned his head slightly and said to Minna in an even tone, "I'll send the compensation to your account later." Minna couldn't hold back any longer. Her tears spilled freely.

Ethan studied her face with a slight frown. Her eyelids twitched several times-clear enough proof for him that she was faking.
There was no need for him to handle the remaining matters. Turning to Brenna, he said softly, "Sorry for dragging you into the mess again today." Brenna's expression didn't shift much. She gave a calm smile. "No need to apologize. I handled it fine. But I have a feeling your mom dislikeseven more now." "She won't get in the way of our relationship. I won't let that happen," Ethan replied, casting a glance at Elsa, who was still pretending to be unconscious.

"Ethan, cwith me. Let's take Mom to the hospital. Her blood pressure might be t be Even though acting up again." Kenny knew Elsa was putting on an act, he couldn't help but feel concerned. He simply didn't have it in him to be as detached as Ethan.
