Chapter 53\u00a0<\/p>\n
The next morning was Bethany\u2019s day off, so she slept in until the afternoon.\u00a0<\/p>\n
Her throat felt unbearably sore as soon as she woke up. She wondered if she might have caught a cold.\u00a0<\/p>\n
When Jane saw that Bethany was finally awake, she quickly reheated the food she\u2019d prepared earlier.\u00a0<\/p>\n
\u201cMrs. Brennan, I made some chicken soup for you. Here, have some. I\u2019ll reheat the rest of your meal in the meantime.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n
Bethany didn\u2019t see Silas in the dining room.\u00a0<\/p>\n
Noticing Bethany look around, Jane smiled and said, \u201cMr. Brennan went to work. He told me not to wake you.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n
Bethany took a sip of the soup. \u201cI see.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n
She had wanted to rest at home for the rest of the day, but she received a call from the nursing home.\u00a0<\/p>\n
It was about Sarah, so Bethany quickly got dressed, grabbed her car keys, and left in a hurry.\u00a0<\/p>\n
Sarah didn\u2019t understand why Diana\u2019s relationship with Bethany had become so tense.\u00a0<\/p>\n
\u201cDiana, when Beth arrives, you two should have a good talk. Beth is a good daughter. She wants to get closer to you, keep shutting her out. If this continues, you\u2019ll only grow further apart.\u00a0<\/p>\n
11\u00a0<\/p>\n
but you\u00a0<\/p>\n
Sarah had sent Bethany to stay at the Reid residence every summer and winter break over the years. She didn\u2019t make this arrangement to gain anything from the Reid family, but to help Bethany get closer to Diana.\u00a0<\/p>\n
Otis, the love of grandparents and that of parents was not the same.\u00a0<\/p>\n
Though Bethany received lots of love from Sarah and Otis\u00a0<\/p>\n
Unfortunately, Diana was not a good mother.\u00a0<\/p>\n
\u201cSarah, you don\u2019t understand. Beth used to be considerate and gentle, but ever since she got married, she\u2019s been acting differently.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n
Sarah wanted to argue, but thought better of it. She didn\u2019t want to be too harsh.\u00a0<\/p>\n
\u201cForget it. When Beth arrives, talk it out with her.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n
Bethany hurried to the nursing home, thinking that maybe Sarah wasn\u2019t feeling well.\u00a0<\/p>\n
When she saw Diana in the garden, though, a flash of anger flared inside her.\u00a0<\/p>\n
Diana, as arrogant as ever, looked at Bethany and pursed her lips. \u201cIt\u2019s about time. I\u2019ve been waiting for you.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n
Bethany took a deep breath but didn\u2019t look at Diana. Instead, she smiled sweetly at Sarah. \u201cGrandma, I\u2019ll push you over there to enjoy the sun.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n
Sarah quickly said, \u201cBeth, have a good talk with your mother. Don\u2019t worry, I have your back.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n
Bethany\u2019s eyes welled up instantly.\u00a0<\/p>\n
When she thought about how Diana hadn\u2019t visited the nursing home even once in all these years but was now causing trouble for Sarah over this, her anger flared up again.\u00a0<\/p>\n
She turned back to Diana. \u201cWhat do you want to say?\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n
Of course, Diana wasn\u2019t happy with Bethany\u2019s attitude. \u201cBethany, is this how you talk to your mother? You\u2019ve blocked my number. Are you planning to never contact me again?\u00a0<\/p>\n

\u201cIf it weren\u2019t for the Reids, do you really think you could have married Silas? And do you believe marrying him means you\u2019ve become a princess? Without the Reids\u2018 and my backing, you\u2019ll be abandoned at the drop of a hat!\u00a0<\/p>\n
\u201cAlso, he married you because he likes men and wants a substitute to appease his family. Don\u2019t think you\u2019re so charming that he fell for you!\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n
\u201cEnough!\u201d Sarah slowly walked over. \u201cDiana, how could you talk about Bethany like that?\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n
Every sentence had cut deep, especially the last. What exactly did she mean by saying Silas liked men?\u00a0<\/p>\n
Sarah tearfully held Bethany\u2019s hand. \u201cBeth, is what your mother said true? Does Silas like men?\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n
Bethany found no way to deny it. It was true, but she never thought she\u2019d have to reveal it in front of Sarah.\u00a0<\/p>\n
Sarah sighed with understanding and pity for Bethany. \u201cBeth, if that\u2019s the case, just get a divorce. You don\u2019t need a man. I\u2019ll always love you.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n
