At this, Mrs. Johnson took a deep breath, her right hand clenched into a fist, trembling uncontrollably.
"But what truly chills my heart isn't Marie Wellington. I've long lost hope in this man; I just didn't expect him to say something so shameless. What truly freezes my heart is the Jenkins family… is my own family. I never expected the entire Jenkins family to side entirely with Sophie Jenkins!"
At this point, tears welled up in Mrs. Johnson's beautiful eyes and a flash of heartache passed through them.
"I understand why Jonathan Jenkins stands by Sophie Jenkins, I can understand… After all, they are father and daughter. Jonathan Jenkins helping Sophie Jenkins is nothing more than having no shame, no regard for propriety, and being shameless!"
"But I don't understand, why even my father, even my brother, even my closest sister… all have to side with Sophie Jenkins!"
Yes, this is what Mrs. Johnson finds hardest to understand and hardest to let go.
