"Shut your mouth! Ethan just has special needs. It's cruel that you can't even tolerate a disabled kid, especially when Ethan is family!" Scarlett Sinclair snapped at Patricia.
Patricia was taken aback. She never expected the usually meek Scarlett to speak to her with such venom.
She immediately looked to Xavier. "Xavier, look at her. I simply offered a suggestion, and she calls me cruel. Everyone saw what just happened!"
Xavier rubbed his temples, feeling a headache coming on.
He didn't look at Scarlett, but his next words were clearly meant for her.
"Enough arguing. I'm giving you one last chance. If you can't keep him under control, I'll find someone else who will."
Scarlett stumbled, barely managing to keep her balance.
With that, the family meeting came to an end.

Back in her own quarters, Amber remembered the insults from earlier and angrily swept a set of glasses off the table.
"That ungrateful brat! If I had known, I never would have given birth to him!"
Mira stepped forward to comfort her. "Ma'am, please don't be so upset. It's not worth making yourself sick over. Honestly, you can't entirely blame Dylan for what happened today. Mr. Sinclair has always favored Patricia and Damian, so this was to be expected."
"Exactly! He's always favored that tramp, Patricia. If he liked her so much, why did he even bother marrying me in the first place? He ruined my entire life!" Amber could never let it go whenever she thought about it.
Mira's expression shifted awkwardly as she recalled the events of the past.
She quickly brushed the thoughts away. What was the point of dwelling on things that couldn't be changed?
"Ma'am, Patrick is here," Mira whispered to Amber.
