Mona stood there, speechless, her mind racing with unspoken thoughts and emotions. “…”

The air in the room was thick with tension as Marie continued to hammer away at the term “illegitimate children on the outside.” Holt and Mona had already clashed fiercely over this matter just yesterday, yet here they were again, the wounds still fresh.

Marie’s vague insinuations had already sown seeds of doubt in Holt’s mind, and now, her relentless repetition of the word “illegitimate” felt like a needle piercing through Holt’s already frayed nerves, again and again, mercilessly.

Gary, unable to contain his frustration any longer, burst out, “You… you’ve gone too far! You just don’t want peace in this family, do you? You…” His voice trembled with a mix of anger and desperation, trying to make sense of the chaos unfolding around them.

Marie, unfazed, simply shrugged and let out a yawn, her gaze drifting towards Derrick, who had been silently observing the spectacle unfold.

Derrick, sensing the weight of the moment, gently squeezed her soft hand, trying to offer some comfort. “Sleepy?” he asked, his tone softening.

Marie nodded, her eyes momentarily fluttering shut. “Yes, really sleepy.”

Yet, as fatigue settled in, her mind raced with thoughts of the confrontation. “But I can’t sleep in that bed now. Have someone change it. We’ll sleep at the Dawson family home tonight,” she declared, rising from her seat with determination.

Just as she and Derrick were about to leave, a glance back at Mona caught her attention. Mona’s tear-streaked face was a picture of despair, and for a fleeting moment, Marie hesitated. But then she quickly turned her gaze back to Holt, her voice dripping with accusation. “Dad, it’s not that we can’t tolerate her.”

“It’s her who can’t tolerate me! I’m pregnant, and she put a giant dead snake in my bed!” Marie’s tone was a mix of indignation and disbelief.

“She pretends to be innocent in front of you, but look at the low-down tricks she’s pulling now to regain control of the house!” Marie’s words cut through the air, sharp and relentless.

With her attack now in full swing, Marie was tearing away at the facade that Mona had carefully built around herself.

Mona, her breath hitching in her throat, looked pleadingly at Holt, shaking her head in denial. “I… I didn’t!”

“Then who put the snake there? Was it you, Dad?” Marie’s voice was laced with incredulity, the accusation hanging in the air like a storm cloud.

Holt stood there, speechless, his mind racing as he processed the chaos unfolding before him.

That “Dad” again… The word echoed in his mind, causing a throbbing pain to blossom in his temples.

As soon as Marie and Derrick exited the Tom family home, the sounds of another fierce argument erupted from within, drowning out the remnants of their earlier confrontation.

Marie, humming a cheerful little tune, climbed into the car, a stark contrast to the turmoil left behind.

Derrick was at the wheel, and noticing the joy lighting up her face, he took her hand and placed it gently on the gear stick.

“What are you doing? So sappy,” Marie teased, instinctively trying to withdraw her hand.

But Derrick tightened his grip just enough to keep her from pulling away. “Don’t move. Let me hold it for a while,” he insisted, his voice firm yet tender.

“Just drive the car,” Marie huffed, bemused by his sudden clinginess.

Little did she know, Derrick’s heart was warming in ways he hadn’t anticipated.

For years, he had seemed like a cold figure, but the Tom family home, once filled with warmth, had turned into a desolate space after his mother passed away.

With her absence, there was no longer anyone to shield him from the harshness of the world inside those walls.

Though he had a temperament that resisted being manipulated, when it came to Mona, it felt as if he was always on the losing end. On the surface, his rigid demeanor seemed to prevail…

Yet, Mona, with her petty schemes, always managed to get her way.

Eventually, Derrick could no longer endure the suffocating atmosphere and chose to leave the Tom family behind.

But the memories of his mother lingered within that house. Holt had reached his current status only because his mother had stood steadfast beside him through every trial.

In the end, she was gone, and in her place, Mona returned with Gary… and Kelly.
