Smack!
The crisp sound and the stinging pain left Brenda frozen in shock.
“Watch. Your. Mouth,” Maureen stated.
Brenda wasn’t one to back down and immediately lunged at Maureen.
Katherine rolled up her sleeves: “Damn it, two against one? We’ll beat the shit out of you!”
Maureen: “…”
Hearing this, Brenda scrambled backward, shouting at the staff:
“What are you gawking at? Throw them out! How dare you let trash like them in here? Do you even know who I am?”
While Brenda looked utterly disheveled, Maureen remained eerily calm.
She handed an exclusive VIP card to a staff member.
“Please escort this lady out.”
The clerk took the card and immediately called security without a word, dragging Brenda out by force.
The store manager then personally attended to Katherine.

Leaving with her desired clothes, Katherine still looked bewildered.
“TII doesn’t have VIP memberships, right?”
“Back in Estonia, I met TII’s designer. He loved my music and gave me
this card.
He said it grants manager–level privileges, but I never tried it before.”
Maureen explained calmly.
Katherine’s face lit up with admiration as she hugged Maureen’s arm.
“You’re amazing, Maureen! I’m sticking with you from now on.”
Maureen chuckled, ruffling her hair. “Silly girl.”
“Yep! I’ll gladly be your silly girl.”
Their laughter echoed throughout the journey home.
Maureen bought several outfits for Jacob and Roy before heading
back.
Katherine would deliver Jacob’s clothes, while Roy’s would be shipped internationally.
“Those adorable dresses I saw… If only Jacob were a girl,”
Katherine sighed, imagining how stunning a daughter would look.
Maureen secretly wished for one too,
They returned home that afternoon.

Maureen video called her younger son Ethan, showing him the new clothes she bought.
On the screen, Ethan lay pale–faced on the hospital bed, his eyes crinkling sweetly.
“Mommy, you’re the best! Mwah.”
“Mwah.”
Maureen’s gaze softened with tenderness.
Though exhausted, Ethan wanted to keep talking.
“Mommy.
Are you loving me?”
“Always.”
Unlike his serious brother, Ethan adored being pampered.
“Then when you’re back, I want real kisses! I’ll even model these new clothes–reluctantly let you take pictures.”
“Okay, Mommy will hurry home.”
Noticing Ethan’s fatigue, Maureen chatted with Zoe before hanging
up,
Later, she opened her hidden photo album, scrolling through Jacob and Ethan’s childhood pictures. Heartache tightened her chest.
In this world, she owed Ethan the most apology…

If only she hadn’t been ill and taken all those medications, he wouldn’t have lived his first months in an incubator.
Since then, he’d spent more days in hospitals than at home.
Yet he remained impossibly bright–never shedding a tear during treatments, shots, or bitter medicines.
She kissed his forehead every time, and he’d always beam with joy, comforting Maureen: “As long as I have Mommy’s kiss, I’m not afraid of anything.”
Maureen gazed at her two sons‘ photos over and over, grateful God had brought these two angels into her life.
Unbeknownst to her, Geoffrey was preparing to fly abroad to bring
Steven home.
Apartment Complex, where Andrea lived.
Brenda recounted everything that happened that day.
“TII membership is supposedly exclusive to top executives. How could Maureen have one?”
Andrea sounded puzzled.
Brenda sneered coldly: “Probably accompanied some TII big shot.”
Andrea took a sip of water after hearing this, then spoke gently: “Darling, don’t be upset. It’s just a dress.

Tell me what style you like–I’ll have my private designer create one for
you.”
“Andie, you’re too kind.
It’s not about the dress. I just can’t understand–how does that deaf woman get all these privileges?”
“Your family accepted their charity, but that doesn’t mean she can make endless demands!”
“I couldn’t swallow my anger–that’s why I confronted her today.”
Brenda fumed with righteous indignation.
In the notions Andrea had instilled in her, Maureen was a woman who would stop at nothing.
“Sorry you had to endure that, that’s just how she is, I’m used to it.”
Andrea replied seemingly unconcerned.
“Andie, what’s your plan now?
Did Mr. Sutton mention when you’ll marry?”
Brenda gritted her teeth. “If all else fails, I’ll post Maureen’s secrets online. Ruin her socially.”
Andrea stood up to trim the flower arrangement nearby.
“Don’t,” she paused, explaining, “It’d affect Geoffrey.”
Only then did Brenda relent.

After seeing her out, Andrea snipped a stem–one perfect rose tumbled to the floor.
Whether past or present, Geoffrey never once proposed.
Sometimes you had to face it: love leaves traces.
Geoffrey probably never truly cared for her.
From returning home confident, vowing to win him over, to now bearing his girlfriend’s hollow title–Andrea was a joke.
The thought made her sweep the vase off the table.
Shards and blossoms scattered across the floor.
A glass fragment nicked her hand, drawing blood.
Staring at the crimson bead, she seized a sharp sliver and slashed her
wrist.
