Lavina still can't believe Veronica is gone. It could have been just Darius's wits to make him give in and approve of his son's marriage to Caroline.
Lavina herself had not known about the woman since William's departure abroad. He never knew about Caroline again. Her husband lied to her, too. Lavina once asked about her new company secretary. Darius said his name was Shirley.
Later after Roseanne's entry into the Mansion, Lavina realized that Caroline had been working at the Austin company for quite some time. That's no longer a problem for him. Especially when she knew her son was married. Lavina doesn't even seem to care about Caroline.
"You must be lying, Pa! How could the woman have died. Didn't you say she's a strong, strong woman? Then why did you leave so soon?" avalanche still could not believe it.
"You think I'm God, huh? Of course I don't know" replied Mr. Darius. The longer his wife always pisses him off.
"Good then. There will be no more actual household destroyers" Lavina replied fiercely.
"That's it. Forget that past of yours. He is no longer there either" said Mr. Darius.
Lavina. Her memory is not far from her past misery due to Veronica's actions. She is innocent, but she has made Lavina's life in her grief. No one was happy that time.
"It's not that easy, Pa. Did Papa forget to hurt me for years? It's because of who? Not because of me, but because of her" Lavina explained.
It seems very difficult to talk to him. Darius thought it would be very easy to talk to his wife after Veronica's death, but it turned out that everything was wrong. The woman remained clumsy on her stance.
"You're overreacting, Lavina. You know very well that he is innocent. The guilty one is me, not him. You shouldn't punish him excessively like that" Darius replied.
I did punish him and also punish you, Darius. I'm hurt that you've ignored all those years. I'm almost crazy waiting for certainty from you. I feel like a wife that you never considered her whereabouts.
"You've lied to me a lot, Pa. Do you remember how Caroline worked at your place? Didn't you say Shirley was your secretary's name?" attack Lavina.
"In fact, Lavina. Originally my secretary Shirley, Caroline's progress towards taking care of the work became increasingly significant. I was moved to choose him for several reasons" he said.
"Ck, the reason for being able to continue meeting with her mother, right?" accuse Lavina.
"That's just your filthy mind, Lavina. I never even thought about it again. I feel sorry for Caroline. He's never met his father, Alex Ryder."
The deg!
Lavina. Hearing the name made him feel back in time. She no longer replied to her husband because she was tired of arguing. She didn't want her husband to know the secret she had been hiding so closely all this time.
...***...
In the Mansion, precisely in the Austin family's living room there has been a commotion of brothers. Jack started it first.
"Will, where are you from?" ask Jack who just leaned on the sofa. He asked the waiter to help us get him there.
"You asked me?" Jack always invites him to fight. Hence, William was reluctant to speak to her again.
"What would William be in this Mansion if it wasn't you, huh?" snapped Jack.
"What do you really have to do with me? I've been lazy to argue with you, but you always start first" replied William.
"Don't you think you'd be free to pursue Caroline without me. I told my mom to marry him. You know what Mom answered?" Jack tries to make his brother give up on getting the girl.
William was lazy to respond to his words. All the answers from her mother were the same, rejecting Caroline.
"Mama agrees." Jack deliberately lied to ignite William's anger.
"Why are you quiet, Will? Are you imagining my wedding party with that girl. In fact, you also imagined my first night with her, didn't you?" ledek Jack's.
William actually wanted to directly beat his sister who increasingly day his mouth could not be conditioned like that. Seeing her helpless condition from a broken bone, made her rethink.
"There will be no first night with him. Caroline will definitely marry me" she replied, not to lose.
Jack doesn't seem to want to lose. He deliberately made things worse by pretending to fall.
"Oh, William pushed me!" accuse Jack.
The few servants who heard him immediately searched for the whereabouts of Lord Darius and Lady Lavina.
"You don't slander me like that, Jack. If you want, we can compete in a healthy way and not like this" William lamented.
"What's this?" shouted Lavina. He looked at his two sons as if they were struggling.
"What's this, Will?" ask Mr. Darius.
"Ma, Pa, you don't know, that Brother William pushed me down like this. He just wanted to take Caroline away from me. I've asked Mama for her blessing and it's allowed" she told a lie.
"Jack, what are you saying?" gerutu Lavina while helping Jack.
"That's impossible, Jack. Your mother will never bless you both, but Papa supports William to be with her" said Mr. Darius.
There was a dislike Jack showed his papa.
"Why has Papa always supported William? I'm your son too. Why do I feel unfairly treated like this?" moan Jack. He's back in his seat.
"Papa never distinguished my two sons. Even if I support William, just ask your mama about it. He's too much to deal with this."
Since Caroline's presence in their lives, there seems to be no day without a fight. Moreover, his two children fought over the same person.
"Okay, Mama's tired of seeing this commotion that's never ending. William and Jack, Mama will never allow either of you to marry Caroline. Take good care!"
William is under responsibility. She still loves the girl too much and has promised to return to her after getting her mother's blessing. However, seeing his feet the attitude of the mother made William no longer care.
"I'm sorry William, Ma. Since Will's relationship with Caroline, Mama has always been a third party between the two of us. Even Mama used to terrorize him, didn't she?" william's Stern.
Apparently not only Veronica, but also Caroline made William's attitude as I was. He no longer cared about the mammary ban because all his life William never felt happy if not with Caroline.
