They barely spoke to each other, but Tallulah now lived in a massive mansion and no longer had to act like an unpaid maid for Willow.
The Locke Group hadn't collapsed, and with the Tatum family's money backing them, they would eventually bounce back.
And one day, all of that wealth would belong to her son.
As for Yulen never coming home?
She didn't even care anymore.
She had also returned to Bryce Bell's lab, but her mind had been so scrambled by the personal drama that her performance was slipping.
Seeing Winona thriving in both love and her career, surrounded by a village of supportive family members, made Tallulah's stomach churn with acid.
She had spent years believing she would eventually outshine Winona, only to end up being the pathetic one.
"Don't get too smug, Winona," Tallulah sneered, stepping closer. "I haven't lost yet. One day, I'm going to make you look at me with respect."
Winona had no idea where this imaginary rivalry even came from, nor did she care. She just gave Tallulah a mild, dismissive glance.
At that moment, the clerk returned with the toy box.
"I am so sorry for the wait!" the clerk apologized. "This item was sold out everywhere. This is the absolute last one we have."
Winona thanked her and pulled out her card.
Tallulah couldn't help but scoff. "You're with Stefan Goddard, and you're still out here buying toys yourself? You don't have a nanny to run errands for you?"
Tallulah never involved herself in the daily grind of raising her son. She felt that taking him out for an hour once in a while was more than enough to fulfill her maternal duties.
Winona met her gaze coolly. "We're not the same. Other people raise your child. Other women sleep with your husband. You live in that house like a guest in a cheap motel, and everyone there treats you like an outsider."
"You—!" Tallulah's face turned a mottled, furious red.
Winona smoothly signed her receipt, picked up the shopping bag, and walked out without looking back.
