Chapter 1592 Sophia thought back to the past and realized that Adam never cared so much about her mother before. She got angrier the more she thought about it.
Adam was so occupied with carrying Lilin that she did not notice Sophia's souring emotions. It was only when he wanted to bring Lilin to Sophia that he seemed to be aware of Sophia's presence. When he saw that Sophia was alone, he frowned and asked, "Did you chere alone, Sophia? Where's Zachary and Benjamin?" Sophia snapped back to her senses and explained, "I didn't ask Zachary to cbecause his disability makes it difficult for him. Benjamin is with him at home, too." Adam snorted. "Doesn't he have a wheelchair? Couldn't he have shown seffort in meeting his wife's parents from the airport? This is basic courtesy!" Sophia did not like hearing her father talk about Zachary that way. "Please don't say that about Zachary. You know better than anyone why he's in this condition now. He wouldn't have wanted this either." Adam felt a twinge of guilt when Sophia pointed that out, but it was for Sophia instead of Zachary. He knew that his explosive temper and impulsiveness had made him beat up the love of Sophia's life. Sophia had to live with a crippled man because of his actions.
Adam could only remain silent.
Suddenly, Lilin then said, "It's not fair for you to say that, Sophia! You should be thanking Dad instead of blaming him!" Lilin's words triggered a wave of anger in Sophia, but Sophia managed to control her emotions before asking politely, "What do you mean by that, Lilin? Would you be grateful to Dad if your future husband is crippled because of what Dad did to him?" Lilin took her hands out of her pockets and waved J "Of course not!" Sophia frowned instantly and had an ironic look on her face. "Then why do you expectto be grateful to Dad? You shouldn't give other people advice if you've never been in their shoes." "I won't thank Dad for beating my future husband up because I'm not going to grow up and marry someone who doesn't love me!" Lilin explained her reasoning. "lI won't let Dad worry so much aboutand end up having to beat up the man | love! I'm pretty sure 'won't be in your shoes when I'grow up." Lilin then continued, "Your situation is different. You chose to get involved with a married man who never loved you in the first place. Dad was so worried for you that he had to interfere and cripple him so he'd stay by your side forever. | bet Zachary would have left you and gone back to his family if he's not disabled. Think about it, Sophia. You ought to be thanking Dad for everything because you wouldn't be with Zachary right now if Dad didn't cripple him." The truth hurt, and Sophia was enraged by Lilin's frankness. "Who taught you to speak tolike that? Was it your mother?" Lilin shook her head. "Nope. No one taught me. I'm just telling you what | saw. Mom has better things to do than to teachall these things." A flurry of emotions appeared on Sophia's face and she could not keep her charade any longer. She pointed at Lilin, then at the innocent and helpless Melinda. "You must've taught her to say that! What are you trying to achieve, Aunt Melinda?" Melinda shook her head and said, "I didn't! I'm sorry Lilin said that to you. She doesn't know what she's thinking.
I'll ask her to apologize to you." She then turned to Lilin and said, "Apologize to your sister, Lilin!"
