"Regina," Lady Patrice said sternly, "Joanna is right. The Heath family and our Kelloway family are irreconcilable. You and Jeremy Lawrence are not to associate with each other anymore. When the Kelloway family was in dire straits, Joanna and I humbly sought the help of the Heath family, and they refused to lend a hand."
"If it wasn't for Joanna's influential friend who helped us through this disaster, the Kelloway family would have ended up bankrupt."
"The Heath family was merciless and ruthless. There will be no interpersonal relations between our Kelloway family and the Heath family in this life. This applies to you as well. You're not allowed to have any contact with anyone from the Heath family, understand?"
Regina clenched her fists.
Tears welled up in her eyes.
She wanted to tell Rebecca and Lady Patrice that Jeremy was innocent.
The disputes between the two families had nothing to do with him.
The person who refused to help was not him.
