Chapter 134

Lillian felt like she was on the brink of a breakdown, both emotionally and physically. She had fought tooth and nail for everything she had, only to see it crumble to pieces.

Her eyes were bloodshot, her nails digging into her palms so hard they drew blood. She wished she could just take Brielle down with her, right then and there.
