Simon was already in his 30s and still seeking his father's protection when trouble arose. It was truly laughable.
"Taty and | genuinely love each other. Everything you said is nothing but nonsense and slander!" Sean, full of indignation, spoke with unwavering righteousness. His words were resounding as if he and Simon were once again standing in a courtroom engaged in a heated debate. "I've done everything out of my own will. No one forced me! "| stand with Ms. Alyssa and Mr. Beckett because they speak up for the weak in society. They have hearts set on righteousness! Unlike you, who aid and abet others, only seeking personal gain! Your current state is a result of your own actions. It's your karma!" "Dad! Mom! Do you hear what Sean is saying?" Simon's arrogant demeanor in front of Sean diminished. He began to play the victim in front of his parents, trying to whitewash himself and use his parents to pressure Sean.

"Even without me, Beckett Group would have hired someone else to represent Sophia in court. Does that mean everyone who defends them is evil? | think you've really fallen for Alyssa’s tricks! You're just a puppet in the Taylors" hands!" Tatiana stood outside the ward, listening to the unabashed argument. She felt as if a chill had frozen her entire body.
Sinead's face turned pale at Simon's words. She clutched her chest, struggling to breathe. "What wrong have we done? Why must they harm us like this?" Simon, while comforting his mother, continued to sow discord. He even started pretending. "Sean, | know you want to please your girlfriend and gain the Taylor family's favor. But you can't turn against your own family! "I'm your biological brother. How can you forsake sibling affection for a woman?" Sean's heart burned with anger. Just as he was about to speak up, Spencer, who had remained silent, suddenly spoke up.
"Sean, Ms. Tatiana is outside, right? She's Mr. Taylor's daughter. That makes her a distinguished guest. It's not right to leave a guest standing outside. Let her in." "Spencer, you..." Sinead frowned, clearly displeased.
Sean knew his parents didn't like Tatiana. Despite their long relationship, his parents had never once mentioned meeting Tatiana.
Yet now, his father had relented. There was no reason for him not to be happy.
Sean immediately went outside the door and took Tatiana's trembling hand. With a smile of happiness in his eyes, he pulled her inside. It was as if his dream of marrying her had come true.

He could tell Sean was wholly enamored by Tatiana. As a man, how could he not see the intense love in Sean's eyes? "Nice to meet you, Mr. and Mrs. Lynch." Tatiana released Sean's hand and politely bowed to the elderly couple. With her graceful and charming demeanor, it was evident she came from a distinguished background and had been well-educated by Winston and Lyla.
Prepared with a rebuttal, Spencer found himself at a loss for words upon seeing Tatiana. No matter how he framed it, it seemed cruel to confront this delicate lady.
"How are you, Mrs. Lynch? Do you feel better now?"
