Chapter 53

Retreating to her room, Rena indulged in a refreshing shower before sinking into her bed.

Sleep eluded her, consumed by ceaseless contemplation.

Eloise’s demeanor lingered in her thoughts, hinting at an acceptance of Darren’s impending two-year imprisonment.

Vengeance against Harold had danced through her mind but she harbored the sober realization that she wielded no power over him right now.

Moreover, she had a duty to tend to Eloise, a soul unacquainted with the trials of life.

Rena tossed and turned, trapped in the clutches of sleeplessness.
