Chapter 177

Nathalie finally got up from the recliner and walked over to Miranda. Those old feelings of hurt and resentment? They seemed like distant memories now, replaced by a serene calm.

Tears welled up in Miranda's eyes. "I'm sorry."

Nathalie just shrugged it off. "You weren't wrong; you just didn't love me enough."

And with that, she walked out without looking back.
