Girl Get Rid Of That Jerk by Melissa Johns

Chapter 375

Allison had a brush with death, but she managed to pull through. Things weren't looking so bright for Ben, though. The doctor broke the bad news: Ben had been poisoned for a while, and the toxins had spread through his vital organs to a point where medicine couldn't help anymore. When Grandma Emily heard this, she fainted right there.

The next day, Rose headed to the prison. Through the glass, she saw Lillian in her prison uniform. Rose sat on the other side, and they spoke through a handset. Lillian's lips curled into a mocking smile. "Rose, did hell freeze over for you to visit me?"

Eventually, Lillian was kicked out of the Fisher family. From then on, she stopped calling Rose "Mom" and just used her name. Rose hadn't visited her since Lillian's arrest, trial, and sentencing. Only Grandma Emily had stopped by twice, still doting on Lillian despite the poisoning scandal.
