Chapter 67

Gwyneth was in the middle of a tantrum, tears streaming down her cheeks.

Victoria, frustrated, raised her hand-but instead of scolding, she gently patted Gwyneth's soft hair.

"What kind of racing game do you want to play, Gwyn?"

Gwyneth's long lashes were still wet with tears as she sniffled, "But, Mommy, you don't even know how to play..."

Victoria sighed, trying to comfort her. "You want to play a racing game? I'll play with you, okay?"

Gwyneth stared at her for a few more minutes, her sobs gradually fading.

"You really know how?" she asked, skeptical.

Victoria nodded and pulled out a tablet from the drawer.

"Daddy has another one, but whichever game you want, Mommy will play with you."

Gwyneth, still just a child, mostly loved Violet because she enjoyed the attention and company. Now that her own mother offered to play, Violet was quickly forgotten.

Seeing her daughter's excitement, Victoria couldn't help but feel a pang of guilt- maybe she had been too strict, too demanding in the past.

Gwyneth grabbed the tablet and eagerly opened her favorite game, "Crazy Racers."
