Wait, why did he get mad at Nora? If I was in their situation, I would feel shitty and insignificant too but I would think "No wonder he doesn't want to stay with his family, I wouldn't stay either". Plus, they knew Nora was abused, like what did you expect going there? To be welcomed warmly, when they are not warm even to their flesh and blood? Given their social status and the circumstances, I am surprised they were even let inside the mansion.
You experienced first hand this suffocating environment, finally understood what your close friend suffered through for 17 years, met his abusers and then blame Nora for everything?
Not only that, but you disregard his pain and say you would have put up with it for the status? That is truly disgusting. I really do not understand how a genuine friend could think like this. I do not understand how you could be mad and blame Nora for this.
