Gail knit her brows, attempting to mediate the situation.

“Noemi, Rosa divulged the entire truth to me. I acknowledge the impropriety of her past actions. I implored her to extend an apology to you. Could you find it in your heart to forgive her for my sake?"

Despite the culpability of both parties, Noemi, being the mother-in- law of Rosalynn, should opt to concede first, prioritizing future familial concord.

Noemi regarded her with a forced smile.

"Gail, she is your daughter. Naturally, I can't create a scene with her."

She asserted she couldn't, not that she wouldn't.

This signified her reluctance to relinquish the grudge, even though Gail was her confidante.

She still had resentment lingering for Rosalynn.

Gail, comprehending Noemi's unspoken sentiments, refrained from pressuring her further.

“Noemi, with my daughter's return, I plan to host a celebration. I'd like to consult with you. When would you consider it fitting?"

Regardless, Noemi held the title of her daughter's mother-in-law.

Even if Noemi still had a grudge against her daughter, Gail intended to extend the respect due.

“It's at your discretion. Just inform me once you've reached a decision."

Noemi's demeanor carried a hint of indifference and Gail sought to avoid further embarrassment.

"Very well, we can discuss it later."

"Okay."

After concluding the video call, Gail turned her attention to Brian.

“Brian, your mother still bears a grudge."

Brian wore a solemn expression. He remained silent, acknowledging the truth in his heart.

Gail then stood, announcing, “I'm going to freshen up. You two can talk."
