Curtis’s words left Julia speechless.

After a long moment, she said defensively, “It’s not the same. Victoria didn’t grow up with us. We’d just met her, and we didn’t have that kind of bond yet…”

“She didn’t grow up with us because Angelica’s mother switched her at birth,” Curtis said. “We should’ve felt more for Victoria and tried to make it up to her, but we didn’t. Now that we’re down on our luck, do you expect the Fishers to treat us the same?”

Julia was left speechless. She said in annoyance, “Alright, alright, you’re right. I know I messed up, okay? Can we just drop it already?”

After a pause, she went on, a bit hurt, “Didn’t Angelica trick us back then? Simon didn’t even bother to come home to welcome Victoria. At least I was at home waiting for her, right…”

Not wanting to hear her endless nagging anymore, Curtis pulled out his phone to see what people were saying online about today’s meet–and–greet.

‘Seriously impressive–she’s so young, and she’s already made so much money with her talent in medicine,‘ he thought.

Thinking back to a month ago when Victoria had just been brought back, he and his parents had actually looked down on her, worried she would take Angelica’s spot in the family and steal all the attention and affection.

He felt a wave of shame wash over him.

Then, a year ago, Victoria posted: [Saved a guy with my own skills for free. Sigh… my overflowing kindness strikes again.]

Three months ago: [The guy I saved turned into my boyfriend. Gavin made me post this, by the way.]

Then, a month ago:

[Today was seriously packed and pretty wild–first a hot guy came to my door looking for a partnership, then my boyfriend broke up with me, and later a fugitive tried to cause trouble. My so–called family is honestly something else. Time to see what they’re really like.]

Julia spoke up, “Now that I think about it, your dad, Simon, and I still haven’t added Victoria on Facebook. If she accepted your friend request, she must want to patch things up with us.”

Curtis blinked, a bit thrown. “Wait, is that what it means? Vickie accepting my friend request means she actually wants to make up?”

Julia said with certainty, “Of course! With her personality, if she wanted nothing to do with you, she wouldn’t have accepted you. There’s still hope, Curtis. Just keep at it–maybe in three months, or half a year, or even a year tops, she’ll forgive you, and the rest of us too.”

Curtis felt a surge of confidence.

‘Maybe Mom’s got a point,‘ Curtis thought. ‘Vickie acts tough, but she has a soft heart. She probably accepted my friend request because she really wants to make things right with us.’
