Charlie sighed and said, “Even the time when you drugged Mnie for an abortion, she quietly took the me for you, never said a word in front of anyone.”

Megan’s feeling prettyplicated right now. When she heard Charlie mention how she made Iris take the me, her face darkened and she said, “Why are you bringing this up now? Are you trying to make Heriberto feel even more guilty about Iris?”

Charlie frowned, “I just felt sorry for that kid on behalf of Iris.”

Megan’s face darkened.

“Unfair…” Suddenly, their two voices sounded extremely hoarse, “What unfairness?”

Both of them were surprised and suddenly turned their heads to look.

I don’t know when, but Heriberto, who was originally in a high fevera, actually woke up, his eyes sharp, staring at the two of them without blinking.

“What’s with all the me, Iris… who is she taking the me for?”

Heriberto looked at the two of them, struggling to sit up in the hospital bed, and hoarsely asked, “Mnie had a miscarriage, it wasn’t Iris who gave her the pills, right?”

“Heriberto, you’re awake!”

Megan was stunned for a few seconds, then she happily pounced on him,pletely ignoring his words and his expression at the moment.

Just as her hand touched Heriberto, he forcefully pushed her away.

Megan sat on the hospital bed, staring at Heriberto in surprise.

Over the years, even when her rtionship with Heriberto, her son, was at its worst, he neverid a hand on himself.

He has always been a self–disciplined and courteous person.

Charlie was also shocked, walking over and standing in front of Megan, looking like he was protecting her while driving.

Heriberto seemedpletely oblivious to their surprise, just gritting his teeth and pointing at Megan, saying, “Mnie had a miscarriage, it wasn’t Iris’s doing, it was you, right?”

Megan saw his angry and resentful eyes, felt a chill in her heart, and her face turned pale. She couldn’t speak for a moment.

“Heriberto, didn’t the fact also prove that the baby in Mnie’s belly is not yours? Your mom drugged her, right?”

Charlie carefully exined to Megan.

Although Megan was strong–willed, Charlie was always sincere towards her over the years and willing to listen to her.

“Got it!”

Heriberto gritted out a word, not sure if it was because of anger towards his parents in front of him, or guilt towards Iris, shaking all

over.

“Mnie was really no good, but you drugged her and let Iris take the me, so what does that make you?”

Megan looked at him, looking all upset, and argued, “I didn’t ask Iris to

take the me for this, she opened her mouth herself, who can me her?”

“Bang!”

Just as Megan was speaking, Heriberto raised his hand and swept all the bottles and jars on the bedside table to the ground.

Megan’s voice suddenly stopped, she was pretty scared.

Heriberto didn’t want to talk to them anymore. He turned his head, pointed towards the door, and coldly said, “Get out!”

Megan looked at her, her eyes turned red all of a sudden, tears started falling down, and she asked sadly, “Heriberto, are you ming me now?”

“Heriberto, you can’t me your mom for this.”

Charlie heard Megan’s sobbing, turned to look at her, gave her a gentle pat on the shoulder, and continued to say to Heriberto, “It’s because you never stood up for Iris, it’s your indifference andck of trust in her that led to your mom and even the whole Hale family not valuing or trusting her.”

Megan heard him say that, afraid that Heriberto couldn’t take it anymore, she quickly tugged at his sleeve.

Charlie nced at her, signaling her to rx.

Sure enough, after he finished speaking, Heriberto quickly calmed down.

He sat there nkly, eyes downcast, gaze unfocused, not moving at all, who knows what he was thinking.

Megan got even more anxious, kept checking on Charlie.

Suddenly, a lear “plop” fell on Heriberto’s hand.

Megan was surprised, she looked up to see him, and somehow, he was

crying.

Tears started to fall non–stop.

“Heriberto, son…”

Megan was flustered, wanting tofort Heriberto but not knowing how to start. “You’re right, I was wrong. I shouldn’t have let Iris take the me. If you’re upset, you can scold me, but hitting me is not okay. You can give me a couple of ps.”

Heriberto shook his head slowly, then suddenly started crying like a helpless child.

“No, it was my fault, I was the one who messed up the most…”

Charlie was right, it was clearly his attitude towards Iris that determined how others felt about her.

Look, Mnie was such a piece of trash, but with someone protecting and pampering her, everyone would just fawn over her.
