Victor Linden looked at Anna Linden and said, "Ryan just had a moment of foolishness. He's a changed man now."
"A changed man?" Hearing this, Anna Linden found it laughable. "Maybe in your eyes, hitting your wife is a trivial matter! That's why you think Lana should just revolve her life around that house and the kids! That's why you think as long as Ryan apologizes, Lana should just obediently come home!"
"Anna," Victor Linden said, "We're family. You watched Ryan grow up. Why are you willing to sour our relationship over an outsider like Lana? Besides, weren't she and Ryan doing just fine at home before? It's only since she started staying with you that she can't see things clearly and has gotten ideas into her head!"
Standing to the side, Anne Sutton's hands clenched unconsciously as she listened to Victor Linden.
