My mother-in-law is in quite a bad shape. It was indeed an unforeseen circumstance that put her in this state. Who would have thought that Carmen would really go after her?" Seeing Charlie's arrival, Elaine, who was aggrieved, finally found someone to express her feelings of being wrong too. "My good son-in-law, I'm just feeling so miserable..."

"Mother, don't argue with Father anymore. He cto visit you out of concern." Elaine scoffed and replied grimly. "I do not need his concern."
