Holly laughed, "It doesn't hurt."

Price was both angry and heartbroken, "When that ungrateful son comes back, I'll beat him to death!"

Holly continued, "Price, I think that our child is grown up and he ought to have his freedom. You have been restricting him so much, he can't do this, he can't do that, it will only make him want to run away from us."

Upon saying this, Holly paused, then continued, "It might have been easier if I were his biological mother. But after all, I am only a stepmother. People say a wasp's tail is venomous but a stepmother's heart is vicious. Even if I do my best, people will still gossip. You are restricting Vincent so much, I'm worried he thinks it's all my doing! This is human nature, after all, I don't have that special bond with him because I did not carry him for nine months. There is no blood connection between us. I don't blame him, and you shouldn't blame him either! If there's any blame, it's that I don't have that mother-son bond with him."

No matter how well she treated Vincent, he had never once called her mother.

Holly sighed, looked up at Price, and said earnestly, "Price, don't you really know why Vincent insists on joining that laboratory?"

"Why?" Price eagerly asked, "You know?"

Holly continued, "Have you forgotten? His birth mother, Sophie..."

His biological mother referred to by Holly was Sophie, Price's first wife.
