His tone was laced with a hint of mockery, his lips curling into a slight smirk, yet his gaze remained cold.
Upon recognizing the voice, Blake swiveled to face Sanford. Taking in Sanford’s distinguished demeanor, his eyes widened.“Who might you be?”
Sanford strutted over to Maggie and said in an arrogant tone, “I’m the lover you've been referring to, and the one responsible foryour daughter’s admission to the psychiatric hospital.”
Blake’s expression changed, and he suddenly adopted a more respectful demeanor.
“Oh, you must be Mr. Robles. Yana‘s lack of discretion led her to offend you. Please accept our apologies.”

“You've thrown around the term ‘lover’ quite a bit, yet do you comprehend its implications? Since I'm not married now, why can’t |be in a relationship with Maggie? If you’d prefer your daughter not to reside indefinitely in the psychiatric hospital, I'd suggest youcurb your temper and watch your words and actions!”
His tone dripped with frosty disdain. Blake felt a stab of humiliation at being reprimanded by someone youngerHowever, considering Sanford’s status, he had no choice but to stomach the affront.“Mr. Robles, you've detained my daughter for a full day now. Can you consider releasing her?”
