Chapter 2277
"You won't leave me?" Patricia asked in tears.
"Mm-hmm." Ryan nodded.
"You're not angry at me anymore?"
"Not anymore," said Ryan.
"Son..." Patricia cried. Ryan also cried.
At that moment, Ryan's phone had actually been vibrating.
However, he did not have the time to answer it. He did not even take a look at who was calling him. He just held his mother's hand while feeling incredibly remorseful.
"Ryan, take good care of your mother. Jane and I will go back now. We'll come and visit your mother again tomorrow," Alex said to Ryan from behind him.
Ryan did not lookback, and he only nodded.
Alex then said to Austin, "Austin, we'll first send mom and dad home. Don't worry about things at home. If you need anything here in the hospital, you can also call me as soon as possible.
Nothing else matters now. What's important is that Patricia has to recover well."
Austin nodded and sighed. "Mm-hmm. You may first go home, then."
Only then did Alex bring his wife and his parents along with him and left the hospital.
After he sent his parents home, Alex and his wife did not stay too long at the Poole Residence before they drove home. They put their children to bed after they got home before Jane found time to have a chat with Alex.
"Alex, about this matter, I feel that Patricia was not wrong, but Ruth is also quite aggrieved..."
Alex put his wife in his arms and said gently, "I understand what you mean. After all, Ryan is not me. The entire Poole family is dependent on me, so you can live freely in the Poole family, and nobody would dare to criticize you. Even my parents won't do anything to you. Besides, you're very obedient and caring, to begin with. You've always done everything before my parents have asked you. You've already sacrificed a lot for the sake of fitting into the Poole family.
"However, Ruth was different. It's very hard to manage her innate character. She is also very used to living freely, to begin with. In these three years that she had been with the Poole family, she had long been unable to stand the control that Patricia had put on her in the name of love. This is understandable. People often say that even the best judge can't accurately judge a family's matters. Even if I have great power, I also can't intervene in either party. Don't you think so?"
Jane nodded. "I know. You're also in a difficult position. Oh, well. It's the relationship between a mother-in-law and a daughter-in- law. Let them handle it themselves, then. Especially for Ryan. He is really in a very tough spot. I also feel more sympathy for Ryan.
