He said to Mrs. Rhodes, "I know you all love Julian very much, and I love him too. He's my brother. We've been close since we were kids. Do you think I want anything to happen to him? But when he chose this profession, he had already set clear goals for his life. Running away in the face of danger isn't something he would do. As his family, we should support him and understand him. All we can do is hope he can come back safely, not add trouble for him."
"..." Mrs. Rhodes said, "Stop saying that. I can say all those grand words too. But he's my son... I carried him for ten months before giving birth to him. When he was born, he wasn't healthy, and it was me who frequently ran to the hospital... You all are my children, and if anything happens to any of you, I wouldn't feel at ease. I would go crazy if he wasn't here anymore."
