"Of course, I don't blame you for growing up like that." Madam Liu's tone was harsh. When it comes to her values, Madam Liu is known to be very strict. She would not hesitate to argue with someone who insulted her way of raising her two children.

To Madam Liu, love is a blessing. But falling in love and staying in love are two different matters. As someone who had been married for almost thirty years, Madam Liu knew that starting a family needs hard work and patience. It needs devotion and faith. Without these... a marriage will fail.

Now she understands the need for attraction in marriage. However, she also believed that looking for the ideal qualities in a partner is needed for a long-lasting relationship. And this is where... she and her husband comes in.

Madam Liu feels that she has all the right to choose these qualities for her daughter's future husband. After all, she only thinks about her daughter's welfare. She only wanted what's best for her.

Yu Yanwan's face contorted. She glared at Madam Liu. "Well... are you going to live with your daughter's husband? Why would you think that you know what's best for her? This is her life. Why not let her decide who she wanted to marry? After all, she will be living with the man until she grows old." she argued. Yu Yanwan knew that Madam Liu is unlike her own mother.

While her mother never cared about her decision, Madam Liu was the exact opposite. But for Yu Yanwan, Madam Liu's controlling actions will soon ruin her children's future.

"That is enough." Liu Chin interrupted the awkward silence. She already saw her mother's face getting redder and redder, and she would not want to make her more furious. Liu Chin knew that the result would be horrible if her mother loses her composure. "I think you already made your point." She looked at Yu Yanwan.

She then held her mother's shoulders. "My mother is exhausted. We are going to leave first." She uttered. Without saying a word, Madam Liu stood from her seat and walked out of the room.

"Well... that was intense." Jennie chimed in. As the 'bystander', Jennie thoroughly enjoyed the show. She gave Yu Yanwan a provoking smile. "Quick and intense but... you have an excellent point."

Jiang Ruo cleared her throat. "Why don't we... um... relax. Let's take some time to calm down." She said while shaking her head inwardly. What happened earlier was too quick and unexpected that she felt her brain short-circuited and she could not react in time. She then eyed Jennie's smiling face and sighed.

Jennie only said a few things and the conversation completely turned for the worse. With the same smile on her face, Jennie watched as she enjoyed the drama. She instantly wondered if Jennie deliberately did it. However, if one would analyze things properly, Jennie would not benefit if these women would turn against each other. So why do it?

Was it because she wanted to entertain herself? But what kind of terrible human being would create some chaos just for fun? Another sigh escaped her lips.

"I think you have done enough trouble for today." Jiang Ruo froze when she heard Yu Yanwan's voice. She looked at her sister-in-law, surprised apparent in her face. How could Yu Yanwan say something like that to Jennie? Is she courting death?

"What do you mean?" the smile on Jennie's face was innocent. This, however, was enough to infuriate Yu Yanwan even more.

"You think I didn't know what you were trying to do?" Yu Yanwan sneered.

"Sister in law... please... I think we all need to relax. Miss Jennie is here for the charity. Let's all- "

"This woman is trying to get our inheritance and yet you - you dared invite her here!" Yu Yanwan gritted her teeth. "Don't you know what happened when she met with father?"
