Daniel's statement angered Abraham. His hands clenched into fists and his face began to turn red, holding back anger.

Daniel should not still be defending the woman who had left the man's life.

It was obvious that she had faked her death. That meant Audrey didn't want to live with Daniel anymore, but the man just didn't want to understand, denied it, and continued to defend Audrey.

"You should realize yourself, Daniel! She's already dumped you. How can you continue to pursue her? It's like you have no self-respect as a man!" Abraham said in a rather high tone.

The atmosphere around looked uncomfortable. The Larson family just watched Daniel's argument with Abraham in silence.
