it was especially quiet at midnight in the villa. The car was still outside the villa
Alfie stared at the last light in the villa going out, and his hand trembled as he held a cigarette. He felt bitter.
He knew that Moira wouldn’t come out of the vill
She had married Barclay, and they lived together.
And Alfie, waiting outside the villa, couldn’t find any solution to the situation.
Perhaps by tomorrow morning, he would see them emerge from the villa, affectionate with each other.
Alfie didn’t know how he drove back home. Along the way, he felt like a puppet, just driving back to the Gurman family instinctively
The Gurman family should have been asleep at this time.
But to his surprise, the Guzman family’s fights were still on.
Alfie parked the car in the garage. Just as he reached the second floor, he saw Jeffrey sitting on the sofa with a cold expression.
“Where did you go?” Jeffrey asked
Lara, afraid of the two men arguing, walked over and patted Alfie. “Coming back so late? Are you busy with work?
Alfie replied, “I went to the Jimenez family”

Lara’s words ignited Jeffrey’s anger. “You still have the nerve to say that? Look at your good son. He ran away from the wedding!” Jeffre snapped. Lara retorted, “Alfie wasn’t raised by me alone. Did you teach him anything? Anything good is your credit, but if it’s bad, it’s all my fault!”
