Sean's heart sank as he scrambled to the living room.
Winston had left home after getting the news about Alyssa's daring escape, jumping from the second
floor, just to meet with Jasper. Feeling enraged, he hurried to Solana City with Neil.
However, it was said that Jonah and Axel had stopped Winston during his journey. To stop Winston
from separating the loving couple, Axel went to great lengths by puncturing the tire of Winston's car. No
one knew where the two brothers had sent Winston.
Only the women of the Taylor family were at home that night.
"Mom, you're not in great health. Take it slow." Simon helped Sinead Everton onto the couch and gently
comforted her, "Now that we know Sean has been with Ms. Tatiana, you have nothing to worry about.
"He's nearing his 30s, but this is his first relationship. Understandably, he's all excited. This is what you
get for having a son. Once he marries a woman, well...

us. So, don't be angry with him. Take care of your health."
Simon appeared to be comforting his mom, but he was silently fanning her flames of anger. Sinead's
expression fell. She pressed a hand on her chest and coughed. "I guess your brother is like what
you've described. If I don't intervene, he'll forget about me and his family."
"Gosh, Mom, you're overthinking. It's not that serious." Simon patted her on the back.
"You're right. Sean hasn't dated girls, and he's inexperienced in relationships. That's why he's head
over heels for that young lady! He's changed." Gritting her teeth, Sinead spat, "If I don't speak up now,
he might be fooled. As his mom, I should take responsibility for him."
"Fooled? Who do you think will fool him?" An authoritative voice broke the silence, much to Sinead and
Simon's surprise.
They found Mandy approaching them, arm-in-arm with Lyla. She looked graceful and regal, further
displaying her high social standing.
Sinead smiled wryly and greeted her, "Madam Mandy, how have you been?"
She had always looked down on Lyla and Colene because of their unrespectable backgrounds. Only
Mandy earned her respect.
"Mrs. Lynch, I know you're worried about your son, but he's a guy. Don't you think it's ridiculous to turn
him into a flower in a greenhouse?" Mandy ignored the greeting and snickered. "If this goes on, your
son will not grow into a man. Besides, you can't control him forever.
"Why don't you enjoy your retired years with your husband? Better than ruining your relationship with
your son."
Sinead jumped from the couch in anger. "Madam Mandy, I know my son the best. What I'm doing is to
protect my relationship with him. Sean is young, innocent, and inexperienced. He's making rash
decisions in relationships, and he has no idea what type of woman he's looking for. I'm afraid he might

Lyla teared up in anger, and her breathing intensified. Without mentioning Tatiana's name, Sinead had
thoroughly humiliated Tatiana. Lyla could not bear the shame.
However, she was too gentle to clap back at Sinead. Thankfully, Mandy came to her rescue. She
snapped, "Madam Mandy, are you talking about Taty now? Think carefully before you answer."
Simon hurriedly held back Sinead when he noticed the escalation. To his dismay, Sinead, concerned
for Sean and enraged at Mandy, cackled and jeered, "Madam Mandy, there must be some
misunderstanding.
"Our sons know their place—the Taylors are out of their league. However, a young lady like Tatiana will
be a perfect match for the Schmidts. Don't you think so?"
Lyla turned red from the anger. Even her lips were twitching.
