Ben and Chris quickly chased after her.
"Barbarians, you're a bunch of barbarians! Always resorting to violence!" Maggie was still condemning the first branch.
She saw her son, Nick, lying on the floor unable to get up, and her heart ached.
Elena couldn't hold back anymore and stepped forward.
But Dylan beat her to it. "Stop this noise. Claire is innocent in this matter. The ones who need to provide an explanation are the Carter family and the second branch of the Whelans! Give us an answer!"
Since Dylan had spoken, no one dared to disobey.
No one wanted to offend him.
"Yes, you must give us an explanation today. Our Claire cannot suffer this humiliation for nothing!"
"What is this mess! It's an absolute scandal!" Daniel and Amanda complained.
The old lady walked over, supported by the third son's wife, Lauren Whelan.
"Friends and family, something unfortunate has happened in our home today. I am truly sorry. Please, everyone, head home. We have some family matters to handle. I apologize for ruining the mood!"
The crowd whispered among themselves before saying goodbye to the old lady and leaving the hotel.
"Son, are you okay?" Mrs. Carter looked at Justin with concern.
Justin wiped the corner of his mouth. He walked up to Daniel and Amanda and fell to his knees.
"Mr. And Mrs. Whelan, I'm sorry. It's all my fault. Beat me or scold me, do whatever you want. I was foolish! I wronged Claire!"
"Justin, I thought so highly of you when I entrusted Claire to you. I never expected you to break her heart like this. You've gone too far!" Daniel was heartbroken.
He was also furious.
