The Returned Heiress Who Never Fit In

Chapter 628

Chapter 618 You Stole My Stuff!

Victor said, “Right now, your father is trying to get that half of the map from your mother. And your mother…”

He paused mid–sentence.

Then, after a beat, he continued, “Your mother has gathered a few of the veteran elders who still follow her. She’s likely trying to establish her own faction. This is her most critical moment.”

Establish her own faction.

Clearly, the conflict had escalated beyond reconciliation. Tessa’s chest tightened painfully.

She closed her eyes; a sharp, prickling pain bloomed in her chest.

“Can’t I see my mother, just once?”

The thought of her mom facing all of this alone was unbearable. The ache in her heart was too much to stand.

And in that moment, her heart filled with a kind of courage she’d never felt before.
