lied and accused you. I'm sorry...” Bella sighed, “Oh, Mariela, Lauryn did indeed do something wrong, but she
has already apologized to you. Please forgive her.”
Mariela frowned.
How did she feel that Bella's tone was somewhat impatient?

Mariela was about to speak when Lennon beat her to it, “Grandma, what are you saying? Whether to forgive or
not is Mariela’s decision, and no one should interfere with her.”
Bella looked displeased and said, “Lenny, are you blaming me?”
“No,” Lennon said indifferently, “I just wanted you not to put pressure on Mariela.”
Mariela saw Lennon arguing with Bella for her, without hesitation, she immediately spoke up, “Alright, alright, |
forgive her.”
After speaking, her gaze lightly drifted towards Lennon, and at the stime, she reached out and held
Lennon's hand, giving it a gentle squeeze, signaling him not to argue with his grandmother.
Lennon received her signal, and the sharpness in her eyes faded away.
Lauryn saw this scene and was so angry that her back teeth were almost crushed.
She tightly clenched her fist, her nails sinking into her flesh.
