Edwin chuckled, “If you’re going to be so salty about it, then you should have acted yourself.

Bang!
Urs mmed her fork down and glowered at Edwin.
“Don’t forget that I am your aunt! Mind your manners when you speak to me! How dare you disrespect me like this? I heard that Hannah took you in and looked after you for a certain period.

Edwin’s face darkened.
“You can berate me all you want, but don’t drag Hannah into it!”

“Grandpa, I’ve been kneeling in the garden for days.
I’ve truly realized my wrongdoing.
Please, I beg of you.
Give me a chance to make amends and prove myself.
Please let me stay by your side.
”
She was choking with sobs as she spoke, and by the time she finished, tears were streaming down her face.
Johanna then turned toward Tinsley.
“Grandma, you raised me ever since I was a little girl.
I know that I’ve greatly disappointed you and Grandpa.
Please give me another chance.
”
Tinsley was known for her being softhearted, especially to her loved ones.
Seeing Johanna weep brought back images of her granddaughter as a young child, always clinging to her skirts.
She heaved a sigh and nced at her husband.
