There was another important reason.
At that thought, Grace’s hand around Tessa’s shoulder unconsciously tightened.
Tessa looked up at her, puzzled. “Mom, what’s wrong?”
Grace didn’t answer.
She just lowered her head and stared at the face that bore no resemblance to her own.
Her heart felt uncertain and conflicted.
But she quickly caught herself and shook her head with a smile. “Nothing, Mom’s just a little tired.”
Tessa responded sweetly, “Then go rest, Mom. I’ve got class tomorrow too–let’s both get some sleep.”
“Alright, you’re right. We should rest early.”
Grace rubbed her brow, unable to hold back the fatigue. It had been a long, exhausting day.
It felt like she’d just fought a battle.
However, she still couldn’t tell whether she’d won or lost.
The only thing she could say with certainty was that she didn’t hate Aurora.
It was just…
Grace lowered her gaze.
She simply didn’t know how to face her, especially when looking at that face that mirrored her own so closely–she didn’t even know what to say.
Just by looking at that face, she knew Aurora was her own flesh and blood.
How could she possibly be cruel to her?
But every time she remembered that Aurora was the child she had with that man, a wave of resistance rose in her chest.
She didn’t want to face it.
Grace knew all too well that treating Aurora this way was completely unfair.
But she just couldn’t get past that inner hurdle.
There was nothing she could do.
Tessa watched the struggle on Grace’s face and found it fascinating
What was Grace really thinking now?
Unfortunately, Grace hesitated.
Now, it was too late to regret it.
Sometimes, once something was missed, it was lost forever, just like a shattered mirror–no matter how one tried to patch up the cracks, in the end, it was still broken.
Tessa walked Grace to her room, then returned to her own to rest.
But the moment she lay down, she couldn’t hold back her joy.
