"I..."
Xenia's eyes were welling up with tears as she looked at McNeil Howard.
Instead of comforting her, McNeil Howard just went and sat by the bed, silently watching his still unconscious young son.
Ellinor watched Patricia leave, then turned to Xenia, who was crying.
Xenia and her daughter, Patricia, were both great actors, especially when it came to crying scenes.
But it seemed like Xenia was performing for the wrong audience. McNeil Howard wasn't interested in watching.
Even though Xenia was no spring chicken, she looked pretty good for her age thanks to the wealth of the Howard family. However, she didn't seem to be able to catch McNeil Howard's attention.
McNeil Howard was very cold towards Xenia; he wouldn't even give her a second glance.
Ellinor didn't think any better of McNeil Howard because of his coldness towards Xenia. She looked at him with a gaze filled with disgust.
What a shameless man!
Once, he betrayed her mother and had an extramarital affair with Xenia.
Now that he was tired of Xenia, he treated her coldly and heartlessly. He might even have a new lover.
Disgusting!
