Chapter 950
In the end, it was she and Tessa who had wronged Aurora.
But now, Grace’s desire to ask about Tessa was an act of helplessness.
She couldn’t just stand by and watch her walk into destruction.
After all, she had raised her from a child–the feelings built over so many years weren’t something she could just throw away, not even in death.
Finally, Grace suppressed all those emotions and spoke. “Aurora, I know your sister did wrong.
“But I don’t want to see the two of you like this… I can’t just sit back and watch your sister die either.”
Aurora’s expression cooled slightly.
Of course, she understood what her mother meant.
For so many years, all Grace had ever wanted was for her and Tessa to get along.
But had anyone ever asked whether she wanted this outcome?
Was it really because she didn’t want peace?
This time, it had gone too far–Tessa had crossed every line.
Aurora had spent nearly a month bedridden.
And the person who was likely happiest about that… was probably Tessa.
It gave her the perfect excuse to step in and take over at the company, slowly replacing Aurora entirely.
Aurora understood all of this.
She closed her eyes, listening to her mother’s words, unsure how to respond.
This was a trap of a question–no matter how she answered, it would force her to betray herself.
In the end, Aurora chose to play dumb.
“Mom, I don’t know what’s going on with her. I haven’t been following her situation.”
With that, she turned her head away, clearly unwilling to continue the conversation.
Grace could see it clearly, but at this point, there wasn’t much else she could hold on to.
The only people left by her side were these two daughters.
If they couldn’t resolve their issues, how could they ever respect one another in the future?
Just the thought of it made Grace feel as if her heart was being torn apart.

She clutched her chest, struggling to breathe, her expression contorted with pain.
Aurora’s heart jumped at the sight.
“Mom, what’s wrong?”
She shook her gently. “Mom, don’t scare me like this.”
They had only just mended their relationship.
She didn’t want to see anything happen to her now.
Even back in Millford, Aurora had stopped blaming her mother.
After all, every parent had different ways of loving their children.
But Grace still sought her affirmation, clinging tightly to her hand, unwilling to let go.
She coughed a few times, her expression easing slightly, though she still looked visibly unwell.
“Aurora, I’m fine… but….can you just tell me the truth? Your sister, she…”
Grace’s voice was faint, barely above a whisper.
Seeing her like this, Aurora’s worry eased a little.
Even now, her mother was still asking about Tessa.
Aurora’s face turned cold.
She let go of Grace’s hand and took a deep breath.
“Mom, I really don’t know how she’s doing. All I know is that she was taken in for police questioning. As for anything else–I honestly have no idea.”
