The Heiress’ Return: Six Brothers at Her Beck and Call

Chapter 494 A Mother’s Love

Tobias instinctively took a step back. The reason he hadn’t returned home for so long was because he was afraid to face Marie.

When he was younger, he wanted to make Marie happy, so he brought back good grades. But at that time, she was already sick and emotionally unstable.

He thought Marie would hit him. He would have preferred that.

But she was like an empty shell of a doll, staring out and asking him, “Why didn’t you keep an eye on her?

Did you have to eat ice cream at that time?”

The doctors said it was depression and advised them to avoid anything that could trigger her. Anything or anyone that could cause her to have an episode should be kept away. Later, her condition worsened. She started losing her hair and became very thin.

Tobias and Elliot followed the doctor’s advice and tried to avoid being around Marie as much as possible.
