Chapter 443

Thanks to the fact that Sybil's illness was still in its early stages and her organs hadn't deteriorated too badly, Quintin and his team were able to make several adjustments to her treatment plan based on her overall condition. In the end, they finally found a way to stabilize Sybil's health.

The moment the news came through, the tension that had gripped Charlene, Helena, and the rest of the Ross family for over two weeks finally eased. It was as if a heavy cloud that had hung over their home had finally lifted.

That evening, Helena-overwhelmed with relief and joy-insisted on cooking a celebratory dinner herself.

After the meal, Charlene had just settled in the living room with her mother when her phone buzzed. Jasmine was calling.

It had actually been more than a month since Charlene and her daughter had last spoken.

Helena knew Jasmine was close to Vesta. Even if she tried to pretend it didn't matter, she couldn't help but care.

Helena hadn't seen Jasmine around lately, and she suspected it was because Charlene was worried that seeing Jasmine would only make her already fragile state even worse. While Helena had never truly blamed Jasmine for her closeness with Vesta, she knew that if Jasmine had shown up during those difficult days, it might have pushed her to the brink.
