Jensen said domineeringly, “I just want her.”
Furious, Gilda refused, “Mr. Harrington, I'm afraid it won't happen.”
Jensen looked displeased and solemn.
Yet he couldn't force her in front of so many people, so in the end, Emily dragged him away.
After they left, Marilyn hurriedly walked to Gilda and asked with concern, “Gilly, are you okay?”
Gilda cback to her senses and shook her head. “Yes, | am! Are you feeling better, Marilyn?”
“I'm fine. It’s just the chronic condition...”

Meanwhile, Britney pulled a boy downstairs by grabbing his ear. He was around eight years old, covered with
paint, clutching two brushes, and wearing a crying look.
“Look what you've done, brat!” Britney yelled, causing the boy to let out a cry that echoed throughout the room.
Marilyn looked annoyed and scolded coldly, “Enough! Don’t embarrass yourself.”
Britney's plan was intended for Gilda, but it went awry, making Jensen the victim instead.
Fearing that Jensen would punish her son if he found out, Britney took the initiative to apologize, saying, “Mom,

Jensen subconsciously took a step back. Frowning slightly, he looked at Emily suspiciously and said, “Emily, | can

Emily suddenly stopped and looked up into his eyes, feeling the urge to express her long-suppressed love...
“Jensen, what if... How wonderful would it be if we weren't cousins!”
As soon as she said this, Jensen’s eyes were full of shock. He pushed her away without hesitation. “Emily, I'm
afraid you are intoxicated and talking nonsense.”
Emily stepped forward as if to show her sincerity. “No, Jensen, | didn’t drink tonight. | just got intoxicated when |
saw you.”
“I don’t know what you are talking about. I'll leave since you seem to enjoy staying here.”
Jensen then strode away.
