Mrs. Summers had been bedridden these past few days, but her own daughter Sharon acted like she was blind to it -coming home only to complain and throw tantrums. The mother-daughter warmth that used to be there was long gone.

Mrs. Summers couldn’t help but think of Natalie.

After all, she’d raised that girl for eighteen years.

And now that she was seeing Sharon for who she really was, all those once-forgotten warm moments with Natalie started to come back to her.

Only now did Mrs. Summers realize how horribly she had treated her adopted daughter.

If… if only she hadn’t favored Sharon so much… if only she’d been kinder to Natalie even after Sharon came back… maybe the Summers family wouldn’t be in the mess it was now.

But there’s no such thing as “if” in this world.

Now, Jensen was the only one who could save the Summers family.

Before, she had thrown everything into protecting Sharon. But now, after seeing just how selfish Sharon really was, Mrs. Summers made up her mind: she had to secure a future-for herself and her husband.

The Summers family couldn’t fall.

So the moment she felt even a little better, she headed straight to Jensen’s company. But the secretary wouldn’t let her through, and she couldn’t even catch a glimpse of Jensen.

Jensen hadn’t been sleeping well lately. The shouting outside was giving him a pounding headache.
