Chapter 574: The Bond Only Goes So Far

As she spoke, tears began to fall from the corners of the old woman’s eyes.

She reached up to wipe them away, sighed, and continued, "So, Chloe, I don’t have any other wishes. We were mother and daughter, after all, and I suppose this is as far as our connection was meant to go. Just... make sure I don’t have to see her again."

Chloe Reed reached out to wipe the tears for her, her own heart aching with sorrow. ’Grandma is just too kind,’ she thought.

’No matter how much Autumn Linton regrets it, the fact is she poisoned her own mother. That’s something that can’t be undone. Even if she died ten thousand times, it wouldn’t be enough to atone for what she’s done!’

’If it weren’t for Grandma, where would that woman even be?’

’And yet she sided with outsiders to bully her own mother.’

The old woman’s dry palm rested on her hair, stroking it gently. She spoke slowly, "Chloe, they did raise you, after all. Even if they’ve done so many wrong things, for the sake of the kindness they showed in bringing you up, don’t do anything more to them, alright?"
