Chapter 2626 In the end, after sheartfelt conversations with her therapist, Victoria abandoned the dark thoughts that had been circling her mind. After all, she had her sister to look after, didn’t she? Even though Mara had been distant, it was all because of her own mistakes, wasn't it? Was Mara actually starting to warm up to her again? Mara flashed a cryptic smile and said, “Yeah, as long as you're eating, that's good. Dad's already... well, you know. | don’t want to see you getting sick again.” Victoria's face lit up with gratitude as she stepped forward and clasped Mara’s fingers. “Mara, I'm so sorry for everything that happened. | know you've been holding a grudge against me. | promise, from now on, I'll take good care of Dad. Please, can we stop this silence between us?” Mara, who was inwardly reeling, didn’t let it show. Instead, she broke character and pulled Victoria into an embrace, patting her on the shoulder. “Victoria, I'm the one who messed up before. We're blood, how could | ever stay mad at you? But you need to keep up with your meds, or you won't get better.” Victoria nodded earnestly. “I'll beat this illness, I'll get healthy, and then we'll make the most of our lives together.” “That's the spirit.” Out of Victoria's sight, Mara’s smile twisted into something malevolent. She knew Victoria was now one step closer to the edge.

It took over a month before Victoria returned to the camipey- With such a tragedy at home, her classmates were naturally concerned. She always responded with a faint smile, unwilling to delve into the details, a stark contrast to her once bubbly enthusiasm.

But they understood, all except when she was with Balfour, to whom she spoke more freely.

“Balfour, thanks for caring. Now that Dad's gone, it’s just Mara andagainst the world. Honestly, | never thought Mara could forgive me, after everything... Anyway, let's leave the past in the past. Oh, and Mara asked about you. She wantedto tell you that we're all victims here, and she doesn’t hold anything against you.” Balfour raised an eyebrow and asked, “She really forgave you?” Victoria nodded. “Of course, she did. Why else would she send such a message through me?” Balfour's expression remained noncommittal.

“Alright, enough chit-chat. | need to get home. Mara’s learning to share the household 1/2 08:29 Chapter 2626 chores now. You know, | used to handle all the weekend meals by myself, and now it’s just heartwarming to see her stepping up. | don’t know if this is good or bad, but that’s life, right? Day by day. Next twe visit Dad, we'll tell him with smiles how well we've been doing.” Balfour watched her walk away with a light heart.

However, the Victoria who seemed to be reclaiming her life shockingly took her own life! When Balfour heard the news, disbelief was his first reaction. She had been getting better; how could she commit suicide? But then he got the call from Mara, desperate for help. Balfour tried to comfort Mara over the phone, still in shock. He wanted to see for himself, but Mara insisted he stay away.
