"I know! Of course I know what's at stake. I'm already trying to figure something out. Can you just be quiet for a minute?"
"Yelling at me won't solve anything! If you have the guts, go yell at Natalie! It's all that bitch's fault! If she hadn't gotten involved with Terence, would he have stepped in to ruin your wedding? Would he have sent Marie to jail? The Cross family is in this mess, backed into a corner, all because of Natalie. She's a jinx! I never should have let her into our home!"
"That's enough! Stop talking."
Hearing his mother slander Natalie still made Darren's chest tighten.
Just then, Hanley cautiously approached them.
"Daddy, is Auntie really going to jail?"
Darren knelt down to his son's level. "Hanley, this is grown-up stuff. You're a kid; you don't need to worry about it."
"But Daddy, I heard Grandma say that Auntie will go to jail. And that our family will lose the Ward family's help and go bankrupt."
"That won't happen. Don't worry, Daddy will fix everything."
"Daddy, if I were a little older, I could help you."
Hanley knew that the Cross family was in a difficult position.
At that moment, Victoria looked at Hanley, an idea forming in her mind.
