"Because of a stupid business deal or something of that sort. Mom I am fully aware of what is going on and I strongly feel my sister should be left alone . She has every right to get married to the person she wants to marry. old enough to make decisions for herself. Believe me , if it were me I would have been long gone by now, but Eugenia is still around"she said and continued.
"I heard she's grounded, but what exactly is that going to change ? "She asked.
"But Laura, please help me talk to your sister, you know how crazy your dad can be sometimes"Mary said.
"Dad, what will he do?"Laura asked and continued
"See mum, I have to prepare for school, you people should leave Eugenia alone"She said and hung up.
