Chapter 578
Thinking of this, Grace blamed herself more.
She didn’t know what to say anymore.
The way her daughter had turned out, she couldn’t escape the responsibility.
Tessa didn’t know what to say either. “Mom, I don’t know where Lucas went. I’m alone, and many people there are on his side. I’m nothing.
“And didn’t you tell me before that it wasn’t a big deal? That I was just overreacting?”
Hearing this, Grace didn’t know what to say.
She hadn’t expected this boomerang to land on her.
What she had initially thought was no big deal turned out to be far more serious when it came to Aurora.
Even when Arnold had returned before, he had said it wasn’t that serious.
What was going on?
Before, she had even thought that Aurora’s health had been fine.
But this time, it seemed like the illness came on suddenly, and she had really been through a lot.
“I’m sorry. I should’ve understood the situation better.”
Hearing this, Tessa looked at Julian with a victorious smile.
Hearing Grace apologize was no small thing, especially since she had always been so proud.
This was the first time something like this had ever happened.
Not to mention, even Tessa found it quite strange.
Originally, she had just casually said it, wanting to see how Grace would react.
But to her surprise, Grace actually apologized, and Tessa found it hard to believe.
“Mom, that’s not what I meant. I just wanted to clarify things with you.”
Tessa pretended to look embarrassed and troubled. “So, what should we do now?
“Now, Lucas took her away. I’m really worried about Aurora’s condition.”
“No matter what, I’m still her sister, and I can’t just stand by and watch her get hurt like this,” Tessa said.
Julian stared at Tessa’s performance, stunned.
So, this was how it should be done?
In fact, while Tessa was talking to Grace, her expression barely changed.
She even wore a look of disdain.
After all, Tessa didn’t like Aurora.
Julian was fully aware of this.
He had a good sense of the kind of person Tessa was.
She was inherently deceitful–could anyone seriously expect her to truly care about Aurora?
Chapter 578
Thinking of this, Julian even found it a bit ridiculous.
But after everything that had happened, Julian chose to comply rather than interrupt Tessa.
It was fine to just quietly watch her perform
At least these things weren’t being used against him.
Thinking of this, Julian nearly couldn’t hold back a laugh.
Meanwhile, Tessa was still speaking to Grace.
Grace was still a little hesitant.
**
After all, she didn’t believe Lucas was the reckless type.
If something really was wrong, he wouldn’t be acting this way.
This was completely out of line.
Grace couldn’t help but ask, “Tessa, what exactly did the doctor say? Is Aurora really in such serious condition?”

Tessa rolled her eyes on the phone, but explained seriously to Grace, “Mom, I’ve told you so many times. If you don’t believe it, there’s nothing I can do.”
