Evelyn Grant didn't look at Julian Sterling again and walked straight upstairs.
Behind her, he watched her go, wanting to follow and continue their conversation, but Chloe Shea suddenly stopped him.
Julian Sterling froze.
"Mom?"
"Julian, tell me honestly, is it really just because... you weren't paying enough attention to Eve that she got this angry?"
At first, she had truly believed him.
She didn't have the slightest doubt.
But after seeing her daughter's reaction just now, she felt something wasn't right.
Evelyn had been an obedient child. She was stubborn, yes, but she wasn't the type to be disrespectful for no reason.
Julian Sterling hesitated for a moment before nodding.
"Mom, I'm busy with work every day. I simply don't have time to do anything else to make her angry! Of course, I'm reflecting on myself, too. If she says anything to you, please tell me! I'm willing to change anything."
Lying was his only option now.
