Chapter 399:

Corrine watched as Callie cycled through a storm of emotions in mere seconds before coolly parting her lips.

I owe you an apology for my attitude today—actually, for everything. And for what Rita did. Corrine, I’m truly sorry for all the hurt I’ve caused you. No amount of apologies will be enough, but please, give me a chance—a chance to make things right.”

Corrine let out a short, mirthless laugh.
