"We're all family here. Why makea fuss? Let's all take a step hack, Since we can't sort this out, why not just let it go? No need to hold grudgest"

Halle, ever the peacemaker, chimed in. She didn't want to offend anyone, so she supported Cameron's words. "Cameron is right. Let's all back off a bit." Charlotte was eager for this issue to fade away. Her outburst had mainly aimed to confuse everyone and divert attention from Dalton's imprisonment of Meryl. Now that Meryl hadn't brought up the kidnapping, Charlotte felt a sense of relief.

"Alright, alright. consider Dalton's injury as his own misfortune. Let's just leave it at that. We won't hold it against her. Meryl, don't keep dwelling on minor issues!"

Meryl smiled, but her eyes sparkled with mischief. "What minor issue am I dwelling on? Dalton, why don't you tell everyone what really happened? I've given you a chance." Dalton froze. Though Meryl was smiling, he could see the deep sarcasm etched on her face.

records of calls with Dalton. Just check, and you'll find out if they've been in contact or if they planned to harm Chandler." Meryl's gaze landed on Dylan's face.

Dylan had always treated Meryl fairly well, but she wasn't naïve enough to believe he would side with her over his own grandson. However, since this involved Chandler, the stakes were different.

Chandler was Dylan's youngest son. Meryl couldn't help but wonder whom Dylan would support between his son and grandson. Ever since she married Chandler, Dylan had appeared to care

She didn't understand why, right after Chandler's birth, Dylan had sent him to live with a farming family and had then ignored him for so many years. Chandler had never enjoyed the privileges of the Aniston family. They only brought him back when they needed him.

Meryl's status didn't allow her to question these matters, but she wanted to know if Dylan truly felt paternal affection for Chandler.

When Meryl mentioned Dalton's intent to harm Chandler, Dylan remained silent.

Meryl pressed her lips together, suddenly feeling a pang of sympathy for Chandler.

It was one thing to suffer herself, but she couldn't allow Chandler to endure the same fate.

Just as Meryl was about to speak, she heard Chandler's cool voice from behind her.

"Meryl, come here."

She turned to look, locking eyes with Chandler.

For a moment, she was stunned. She had planned to handle this situation herself, not realizing she would draw him in. Write your comment
