Chapter 643

Brandon watched the mother and daughter sobbing into a hot mess, feeling his own nose tingle and his eyes already slightly moist.

He squatted down in front of Theresa and gently embraced her, his voice hoarse as he told her, "Theresa, call her mom."

But Theresa's sobs intensified, her cries growing even more heart-wrenching, as if she was trying to cry out all the fear, terror, and grievances of the past days, unable to stop for even a second.

Sophia stood frozen, her hand still awkwardly holding out a small teddy bear in mid-air, tears streaming down like a dam had burst, falling uncontrollably while her swollen red eyes stared at the gasping Theresa, filled with panic and helplessness.

The sudden sharp pain in her heart when she first saw Theresa, as if something had fiercely gripped it, was now more agonizing than ever, paralyzing her.

Her hand, suspended in mid-air, wanted to reach out to the heartbroken Theresa, yet she feared the contact.

Theresa's loud weeping sliced through Sophia like a knife, opening a raw,

bleeding wound in her chest, making even breathing a painful endeavor.

Amidst this chaos and heartache, her hand hanging by her side was gently taken by someone else.

Through her tear-blurred vision, Sophia saw Brandon.
