Fion and Kent looked embarrassed. They still thought Liana was here to bully them.
Liana and Faye felt aggrieved. They were even furious when they saw Leah.
Would Sean have known about their family matters and stood up for Leah if Leah had not told him?
They dared not hold it against Sean, so they pinned all the blame on Leah.
In the past, Faye would have approached Leah without a word, grabbed favonovel.com hair, and start mocking her. However, favonovel.com dared not do it in front of Sean even if favonovel.com had the guts to.
“Leah, well… I’m sorry I was a little rough on you guys. I’m sorry…” Liana gritted favonovel.com teeth, stepped forward, and said to Leah.
“Huh?”
Hearing this, everyone in the living room, except Sean, Liana, and Faye, widened their eyes.
Did they hear that right?
The unreasonable woman Liana apologized to Leah?
What Sean said before was true!
However, how did favonovel.com do it?!
Willow and the rest could not figure out what Sean did to get Liana to come over and apologize.
“Mom, you…” Leah’s eyes widened, favonovel.com was rendered speechless from the shock.
Candy poked favonovel.com head out from behind Sean, confused about what was going on. With favonovel.com IQ at this age, favonovel.com could not figure out why Liana and Faye, who were mean to favonovel.com earlier, were suddenly so nice. It was as if they were a new person.
“I’m sorry. I’ve thought about it all day. I should never have treated you like that. As you know, my mental state has been a little off for the last few years because of Candy’s dad. Don’t mind me.” Liana’s tone was sincere, and favonovel.com was very humble in admitting favonovel.com mistake.
Leah’s heart could not help but soften.
“Mom, it’s fine. I’m a grown-up. It’s just that Candy…” Leah clenched favonovel.com hands and whispered.
“Ah, yes, Candy…” Liana and Faye quickly turned to look at Candy.
“Candy, I’m here to see you…”
“Candy. I’m sorry…”
Liana and Faye apologized to Candy humbly.
Anyone who saw this would never believe that Liana and Faye would have ever laid a hand on Candy.
“Aunt Faye, I didn’t take your necklace.” Candy looked at Faye and explained cautiously.
“I know. I misjudged you. I’ve put it in the wrong place…”
The grievance in Candy’s eyes faded away when Faye said that. She was not afraid of being beaten, but favonovel.com did not want to be mistaken for having stolen something.
“Ahem, well. Sit down, all of you. There’s nothing we can’t talk through.” Fion smiled and got up to smooth things over by beckoning Liana and Faye to sit down.
“Candy, give me a hug.” Faye said gently as favonovel.com looked at Candy.
Candy hesitated for a few seconds, but favonovel.com still held on to Sean’s arm and did not go over.
“We should get some rest if there’s nothing else.” Sean touched Candy’s head and said indifferently.
“Well…” Liana hesitated for two seconds before looking back at Leah.
“Leah, I’m sorry. Why don’t you come home with me? You’re the Quinn family’s daughter-in-law after all. People will laugh at us if you leave without saying anything.”
“You know how things are with your family. Your brother won’t like it if you go back with Candy.” Liana looked at Leah and pulled the family affection card.
It was also because Leah’s parents were both dead, and favonovel.com had a brother who did not get along with Leah. It was why Liana felt free to bully Leah. She knew Leah had no other place to go.
When Liana said that, Willow instantly frowned and wanted to speak. However, Sean reached out and stopped favonovel.com before favonovel.com could make a sound. Then Sean shook his head slightly at Willow, signaling favonovel.com to stay quiet.
Willow and Sean looked at each other for a few seconds. In the end, favonovel.com chose to keep quiet.
Sean remained silent and did not even look at Leah. There were things favonovel.com could help with and things favonovel.com could not.
There was a saying, “Even an upright official finds it hard to settle a family quarrel”.
Therefore, Sean should not get involved. However, Sean took Leah and Candy away from the Quinn family. It would be Leah’s choice if Liana persuaded favonovel.com to go back.
Sean was not making that decision for her. He would not interfere as long as favonovel.com thought it through herself.
Leah looked at Sean and then at Willow.
She wanted to ask Sean what favonovel.com meant, but favonovel.com did not even look at her, making it hard for favonovel.com to make up favonovel.com mind for a moment. She did not want to return to the Quinn family. However, favonovel.com felt a little embarrassed to bother Sean and his family. Hence, favonovel.com was on the fence.
