“Aren’t I a piece of trash?”
Lance threw her a cool glance, his tone casually infuriating.
Damaris choked on her words, but quickly fired back. “Just because

Having delivered her piece, she spun around and bolted.

Hearing this, Jasper’s face lit up, his eyes shining with pure joy.
Nathalie thought about it for a moment but decided not to argue. She sat by the bed and took her grandmother’s dry, frail hand. Feeling the faint warmth of her skin, a crushing wave of sorrow hit her.
It was all her fault.
This was all on her.
If only she had stopped her grandmother from seeking out Camilla, none of this would have happened.
To be poisoned by her own biological daughter… how much heartbreak and despair must her grandmother be feeling?
Nathalie buried her face in her grandmother’s palm, tears streaming down her cheeks uncontrollably.
After a long time, she finally lifted her head, only to see a few tissues being held out to her.
A tiny hand was holding the tissues, its owner looking at her with genuine concern.
Nathalie paused, her long lashes trembling as she accepted the tissues and wiped away her tears.
“She’s going to be okay,” Lance said softly.
His words felt weak and hollow.
Nathalie didn’t respond. She just sat there, staring silently at the unconscious old woman.
As the night dragged on, Nathalie finally spoke. “You should head back. I’m staying here tonight.”
“I’ll stay with you,” Lance replied.
“You can stay with me, but what about him?” Nathalie pointed out.
