Chapter 209



Leah was stuck in the past and unable to move on. Right now, she couldn't care less about what Lisa was saying. The disappointment and tangled emotions swirling inside her were almost too much to bear. Finally, Leah spun on her heel, hopped into her car, and told the driver to get going.

Lisa just stood there, her fingers clenched into tight fists. "Chloe, I'll never forgive you," she muttered under her breath.

Meanwhile, Ann, who had just been acquitted, was walking out of the courthouse. She spotted Lisa from a distance, her face a mix of emotions. She never expected Lisa to file an appeal. She always thought her daughter wanted her to rot in jail forever.

Naturally, Lisa saw Ann, too. She marched right up to her.

"Lisa, I finally get to see you..." Ann stepped forward, trying to grab Lisa's hand. During her years behind bars, Lisa hadn't visited even once.

Still furious, Lisa yanked her hand away. "Mom? Whose mom are you? Just because I got you out doesn't mean I accept you as my mom. If you hadn't swapped my life with Chloe's, my life wouldn't be such a mess now."

Lisa glared at Ann with contempt. "Don't come looking for me again. Go find your real daughter, Chloe. She can take care of you in your old age." Then, Lisa turned and left.
