The Secret Heir's Return to Wealth and Love novel Chapter 1669

"I just can't wrap my head around it. Erica is an illegitimate child with such a bad reputation, why on earth does Rosalynn insist on backing her up and protecting her?" Lenora covered her face, slumped on the couch, and started sobbing.

Everyone's saying she's in the wrong, but what on earth did she do wrong?

She only has one son, Jacob. How could she possibly stand by and let him get involved with danger?

Graham lowered his eyes, keeping silent for a moment. "Have you ever thought that Rosalynn, being as smart as she is, would choose her friends wisely? Do you really believe Erica is as bad as the rumors claim?"

Lenora looked up, frowning at Graham. "What are you trying to say?"

"Nothin' much." Graham hesitated, then finally said, "I just feel like you've shifted your resentment for Erica's mom onto Erica herself. It's messing with your judgement!"

"What do you mean, shifting my resentment onto her? When have I ever resented someone as insignificant as her? Can't you see how bad Erica's reputation is? How many men has she slept with?"

"And what about Jacob?" Graham interjected sternly, "You've said it yourself before, Jacob changes girlfriends too quickly. So, it's okay for Jacob to fool around, but it's not for someone else's child?"

"She's a girl! It's not the same!" Lenora shot back immediately.

Graham was crystal clear: "What's the difference between men and women? We're all human!"

As she was deep in thought, Lenora's phone rang.

It was Jacob's cousin, a little girl Lenora was quite fond of.

After hearing what Graham had to say, Lenora was so upset she felt like she might have a heart attack. She didn't want to argue with him and calmly answered the phone: "What's up?"

"Something's happened!"

"What's happened?" Lenora sat up straight immediately.
