We're not all born equal, and our environments shape our personalities.”

Janiya paused.

“It's not that I disdain ordinary people, but I've encountered too many of them. Though there are differences among them, one trait is common-a crude appetite for money. How can a person Like that be worthy of you, a man of such exceptional caliber?"

Sanford took issue with his mother's assertions.

“Mom, you can't generalize Like that. By your Logic, wouldn't everyone from the upper class be the same? Then why is one of my uncles a savvy businessman, while the other is a playboy? A person's character isn't determined by their family background. We can't categorize people based on the status of their families."

Janiya was pissed off by his retort.

She responded indignantly, "Sanford, don't lecture me. I'm convinced she's no different than Jaelyn. If you don't believe me, just wait and see!"

Sanford's brows furrowed.

"Mom, what are you planning?"

Janiya quickly regained her composure.

“That's not your concern. You'LL find out soon enough.”

“Mom...

“Alright, you're still ill. The doctor said you need to maintain a stable mood. Are you hungry? I had the chef make the meal. Eat some.”

Janiya interrupted Sanford, swiftly changing the topic.

Staring at her, Sanford recalled something and asked, "How did you find out I'm in the hospital?"

Janiya answered, “Millie called me early in the morning. She saw a video clip where you were stabbed and hospitalized. That's how I learned about it. How could you protect such a woman at your own peril?

Have you thought about your father and me?"

Sanford tuned out his mother's complaints, lost in his thoughts.

So, it was Millie who had informed his mother about his injury.

How intriguing!

And his mother had driven Maggie away as soon as she arrived. He wondered how Maggie was handling it.

At Beauty Apartments, while brushing her teeth, Rosalynn sent Maggie a message.
