Old Master Abbott listened in thunderous rage, pointing at Old Madam Abbott and cursing: "Without your son, she wouldn't have committed suicide!"
"It's been so many years, and all you know how to do is protect your son!"
Old Madam Abbott wasn't about to take this lying down: "You only know how to blame me. Why did you let Shirley's mother in after Shane Kensington left back then?"
Old Master Abbott was so angry that he nearly fainted: "Wasn't it your son's insistence on marrying her!" He clutched his heart and slumped into a chair, his face pale as if he might pass out at any moment: "I don't even know what kind of sin I've committed!"
He was a man of integrity, yet because of his son Benson Abbott, he'd made a lot of mistakes he shouldn't have.
All of this was because Benson was his only son.
For so many years abroad, he could still numb himself and live in denial.
