"Let's go by what Elizabeth said."
When Jack spoke, he was looking at Frank.
Frank was silent.
Was he truly a teacher? Did he respect his elders?
Lily was Jack's cousin. If the parents involved had already spoken, what could Frank possibly add?
The Wilson family's issues should be resolved by them.
Lily remained silent.
She could counter Elizabeth, quarrel with Ben, and even dare to talk back to Mr. Berwick, but she dared not speak against Jack.
Initially, Lily simply wanted to vent on behalf of Linda. However, it wasn't until after the coming-of-age ceremony that she genuinely despised Elizabeth.
Just a village girl causing a dent in her dad's business!
So annoying!
Elizabeth noticed Lily's gaze and thought, "Humans are truly complex creatures."
Would she, when she fully understood humanity, possess such complex human nature?
And if so, what's the merit of being human?
