Lena looked at Lauren, puzzled. Lauren looked at Lena's pure gaze, secretly sighing that Gideon had good luck.
Lauren said softly, "You rejected him because of your childhood life experience, but he shouldn't just muddle through like this. He should treat you better and respect you more."
Gideon was almost obedient to Lena, so how could he show more respect to Lena? Lena felt a bit guilty.
Although Lena didn't say anything, Lauren also guessed her thoughts and became even gentler, smiling at Lena and saying, "If you could speak for him like this, Gideon wouldn't be in vain of being beaten."
Lena was shocked and asked, "Did you just say Gideon was beaten?"
Gideon was an adult, so how could he still be beaten by elders?
Lauren nodded and said, "It was something he did wrong, so he should take a lesson."
Moreover, Mervyn was already old, and even if he were to beat Gideon, it wouldn't cause Gideon much harm.
Lena heard that and had no choice but to explain to Lauren, "Whether it's pregnancy or marriage, it's the result of our joint discussion, and you can't blame Gideon alone."
Although the McKinneys had a gentle temperament, as for educating their children, they had always believed that if the child was disobedient, just beat them up.
Thinking of this, Lauren looked at Jeffrey.
Jeffrey sensed the danger and stood up. "I should go and care about them!"
Then, he ended up running away in despair.
Jeffrey was just kidding with them. He was only a few years older than Gideon, and he was also raised by Lauren. Especially when Alyssa passed away two years ago, Lauren became even stricter with Jeffrey.
Jeffrey was also afraid of being beaten.
