Just as expected.
The moment the Nelsons laid eyes on Dorothy, the tirade began.

You've taken him from us, so young, so soon!" "Keh! If you can hear me, take this woman with you! Take her to be with you!" Everett had been frowning through the accusations, managing to hold his tongue.
But Sienna's last remark was too much for him.
He was about to step forward when Dorothy quickly grabbed his wrist, shaking her head gently.
"She's crossed the line." "Everett, nothing she says right now is too much." Worried he might actually start a conflict at the funeral, Dorothy gently caressed his hand, "Put yourself in their shoes, imagine their grief! You don't need toe with me, just wait here." "No." Everett's gaze hardened, "They're not thinking straight." "I told you! Whatever they do or say right now, it's not too much." Dorothy's voice was weak, still recovering from the ordeal, lacking its usual strength, "Please, just do this for me, will you?" || || "Everett?" He stood frozen, eventually conceding, e back soon." "I will." Leaving theforting warmth of Everett's palm, Dorothy slowly approached Sienna.

"Don't think this will soften me!" et "I don't." Tears welled in Dorothy's eyes, spitting over and streaming down her cheeks, "It's my fault, and Keh paid the price. I have no defense." en.kikistories Sienna wasn't about to ive just because of Dorothy's kneeling or her admission of guilt.
What mother could easily let go of the pain of losing a child, a part of herself? For a moment, Sienna said nothing, just glaring venomously at Dorothy.
As those holding her back eased up, she suddenly shoved them aside, charging at Dorothy! Before anyone could react, Sienna's slap landed fiercely across Dorothy's face! She didn't dodge.
Or rather, the moment she knelt before Sienna, she was bracing for this blow.
Dorothy's heart was heavy.
Ever since the incident, every tshe closed her eyes, she saw Keh's face! So young... Gentle, kind, a true gentleman.
As if all the world's beauty was meant to describe him.
