Chapter 254

Yasmine's gaze

towards Urena was full of scrutiny. She couldn't understand why, if Urena was truly a mother who deeply loved her child, she would know her child well. From beginning end, Yasmine hadn't seen any guilt, remorse, or sadness in Urena's eyes, only numbness and relief. What was she relieved about? Suddenly, Yasmine thought of a possibility. She squinted slightly. "Did you already know Teresa had HIV before she committed suicide?

Urena's body trembled, her face full of fear, and she quickly denied it, "No! I didn't. I only found out in the president's office. Her face remained pale as she continued to deny it.

But Yasmine clearly remembered that day in the president's office, Urena's reaction was absolutely abnormal. A mother finding out her daughter had Al disease should either be angry or heartbroken, but she showed no reaction at all. "Honestly, at this point, there's really no point in hiding it. Why doesn't Urena understand this?

If Urena had cooperated, maybe Yasmine would have offered them a bit of pity out of sympathy. But now, Urena's actions. deeply disgusted Yasmine.

Urena's face turned pale, her lips twitched twice before she finally spoke, "Yes, that's right, I knew the day before she died."

The day before the incident.

The weather was nice. As Urena was tidying up, she found a diagnosis certificate. She examined it with suspicion for a long time but couldn't make sense of it. However, she only needed to look up the medications piled up on the table to know what they were.

In the evening. Teresa had just come back from school, completely unaware of the storm awaiting her at home. As soon as she opened the door, Urena stormed over and slapped her. "You little brat!" "Mom? What are you talking about?" Teresa asked.

"You have the nerve to ask me what I'm talking about? Do you even know what you're doing? I spent so much money and effort to get you into college, not for you to mess around!" Urena was furious. Teresa quickly realized what was happening and looked toward her desk. "Did you go through my stuff?"
