“Mom, you have no idea how hard it is to watch you struggle every day. It breaks my heart. I hate myself for being so useless,” Tessa said, her voice full of guilt.

Grace looked at her with nothing but tenderness. “This isn’t your fault. Health isn’t something you can control.”

She paused, her gaze drifting toward Aurora, who stood silently to the side.

After a beat, Grace made up her mind.

“Power should be in the hands of those who are capable. I’ll be giving this serious thought moving forward.”

“What gives you the right?” Aurora couldn’t help but speak up.

She had always known Grace was biased toward Tessa, but this time, the favoritism was blatant, undeniably public.

“You…” Grace slammed her hand on the table, furious.

Watching Aurora stubbornly talk back made her blood pressure spike.

She had never realized until now just how stubborn Aurora could be.

“Aurora, is that really how you talk to Mom?”

Tessa looked genuinely disapproving. “She’s our mother, and yet you keep calling her ‘Madam Grace.‘ Do we really need to draw

such a hard line between us like that?”

“And saying things like ‘cast aside‘–isn’t that a bit much?”

She sounded indignant, as if she were only standing up for Grace, nothing more.

Grace, hearing Tessa’s words, felt instantly comforted.

Yes, at least one of her daughters still understood her.

That was enough.

“I’m the general manager of this company,” Aurora said coldly. “There’s nothing wrong with addressing my superior as Madam

Grace.

“And you those oh–so–considerate words of yours–don’t think I can’t see through them. Are you trying to stir things up
