Seeing his confused and irritated look, Margaret said, "Tellabout it then.What was she doing at the time, and what were you doing? What did the two of you talk about? I'll analyze the situation and see if you did or said anything wrong to make her unhappy." Margaret's words shocked Ralph, who shifted slightly to the side and looked at his mother in disbelief.
"Mom! You're kidding me, aren’t you? You want to analyze the situation for me? How would you know what's in her head? She's so much younger than you are!" "What? Are you callingan old woman?" Displeased, Margaret threw him a sidelong glance and asked.

"You don’t understand this.We're both women, and I'd understand her better than you, you silly boy.Con, are you going to tell me? I'm leaving if you're not going to say anything.By then, you can think about it yourself!" Margaret was about to get up, and it made Ralph give it sthought.

Ralph was stunned for a moment, unable to believe that his mother had just said those words, before he whined, "Mom! How could you say that? I'm your son!" "I'm teaching you a lesson here precisely because you're my son!" Margaret threw him a sideways glance, shaking her head as she sighed.
"She'd get angry at you when you accuse her of such a thing.Don’t you remember who she is?" "Do you think she’s like any other women you fooled around with in the past? Her family background is on par with ours, and we have this arranged marriage for the mutual benefit of the two parties.
