Russell Miller hesitated but eventually spoke up: "It's not a problem if the mother-in-law is difficult, since you don't live together anyway. As long as Henry treats you well, that's what matters."
Ivy Miller shook her head: "It's not as simple as you think, Dad. I know what you're worried about, but this is my own matter, and I want to handle it myself."
Paisley Golden stepped forward: "Ivy, you must think it through, after all, Henry is a good kid.
I honestly don't like your mother-in-law either. She gives you a hard time right in front of me.
But if you divorce Henry now, wouldn't that be exactly what your mother-in-law wants?
Besides, has Henry agreed to this? I don't think he would, he seems like a responsible kid."
Ivy lowered her eyes, not knowing what to say, just as there came a knock on the door.
"Dad, Mom, are you home? It's Henry."
Henry Sullivan's knocking was somewhat urgent.
