The Billionaire's Secret Quartet

Hertha's pout worked like a charm on Kimberly. Three years ago, they had a massive fallout, and in a moment of anger, Kimberly had harshly told Hertha that once she left home, she should never come back. Stubborn as ever, Hertha took those words to heart and indeed hadn't returned in three years, nor had she ever called.

During these years, with no news from Hertha, Kimberly was consumed with worry and longed to reach out, but her pride got in the way.

She regretted those harsh words deeply. After all, no matter how headstrong her daughter was, she was still her daughter. How could she have told her to never return?

Now that they had reconciled, Kimberly was fully committed to thinking of her daughter's well-being.
