The Scorned Heiress: No More Mercy novel Chapter 892

But all of those warm memories were completely shattered the moment Jade entered their lives.

Seeing her silence, Eleanor gently pats her hand and sighs. "Tara, I know you still have a knot in your heart. But blood ties aren't easily severed."

Kellen joins in. "Your grandmother is right. No matter what happened, she's still your mother. This engagement is a massive event, and having her by your side will take a lot of weight off your shoulders. Sometimes, if a mother and daughter just lay everything out in the open, the resentment starts to fade."

Tara looks up, meeting their hopeful gazes. A complex wave of emotion washes over her. She knows they mean well, and she senses that Deanna might truly feel remorse. But the scars run incredibly deep; a simple 'let's make up' isn't enough to heal the damage.

"I... I understand," Tara replies, her voice barely above a whisper. She pauses, as if making a quiet resolution. "I'll give it some serious thought."

Hearing her promise, Eleanor and Kellen drop the subject. They know Tara is an independent woman with a strong mind of her own. After a cheerful lunch, Tara heads back to the Dennis Corporation.

She barely settles into her office chair when her phone rings. It is Deanna.
