Alison returned home, and Clara Philips was in the living room.
Seeing her swollen face with five fingerprints, Clara's eyes suddenly widened, "What happened to your face? Who hit you?"
Given their current status, who would dare to touch Alison?
Alison realized she couldn't hide it any longer and didn't want to hide it from her mother anyway, and burst into tears, "Mommy, it was... it was Aurelia, that conniving witch set a trap for me, she hit me and even took a video of it."
Clara knew that things were not simple.
If it were just a straightforward incident of Aurelia hitting her, why take a video? Alison must have acted inappropriately, and that cunning woman Aurelia captured it on tape.
Clara had warned her against impulsiveness, yet Alison didn't heed her advice.
There was anger in her heart, but watching Alison cry uncontrollably, Clara's anger dissipated, and she blamed everything on Aurelia.
