Sorry for Your Loss, It's Me, I'm the Loss novel Chapter 819

Nicola buried her face in her mother's embrace, her eyes wide with tears, too frightened to speak.

"Karina, that's enough," Noah hissed, trying his best to control his fury for Nicola's sake, his face a dark mask of anger.

Noah didn't want to have this fight in his grandfather's house, but the more he backed down, the more aggressive Karina became.

"Believe me, the thought of you and your first love makes me sick. I'll grant you the divorce, but I'm getting custody of Nicola. I refuse to let my daughter be raised by a stepmother," Karina declared righteously.

"Not happening," Noah stated firmly.

If Karina truly loved her daughter, she wouldn't have sold off Nicola's trust fund to bail out the White family. If she actually cared about Nicola's future, she'd know that the best place for her was with the Thompsons.

At his age, Noah wouldn't remain single forever after a divorce; he would inevitably have more children. If Nicola didn't stay with him, their bond would weaken over time as other children took her place in his heart.

With the Thompsons, Nicola would always be the family's cherished daughter. With Karina, she risked losing everything.

But Nicola was still little, and a child her age would naturally cling to her mother.

"Mommy, Mommy," Nicola whimpered, her arms wrapped tightly around Karina's neck, refusing to let go.

They were at an impasse until, finally, Dana made the final decision.

"You can have custody of Nicola. State any other terms you have now. Tomorrow, you two are getting this divorce finalized."

"Mom!" Noah started to protest, but Dana cut him off.
