Everyone knew Jordan and Ansel loved her dearly, but she’dalso given them her heart and soul. Despite being filthy rich, Jordan had been lonely. She’d been by his side whenever he’d needed her. She’d celebrated his birthday with him and brought him an umbrella when it rained
She’d waited for him to come home every night and had always been there whenever he’d been doen. All he’d needed to do was turn around, and she’d been there for him.
As for Ansel, it went without saying how much she’d gone through for him. She’d carried him to tremi and almost died while giving birth to him. She’d been by his side as he’d grown up and taught him the ways of the world. She’d given Jordan and Ansel all the love she had
Her heart and sincerity meant nothing, though. All she’d gotten in return was betrayal.
Sabrina didn’t want to see any more evidence of Jordan and Ansel’s disloyalty, to the locked her phone. This seemed to make Holly panic–she called Sabrina impatiently.
This time, her tone was no longer humble and respectful. Instead, it was arrogant and mocking.
“I know you’ve already seen the photos, Mrs. Faust. For the past year, Mr. Faust and M. Ansel have spent more time by my side than they have by yours. Don’t think they still love you they did, why would I still be around? You’d better make way for me if you know what’s good for you!”

She looked at him quietly for a long time. She’d never known him to be such a good actor. After talong a deep breath, she said, “Nothing’s happened I was just moved to tears after seeing same photos and a video.”
He relaxed and rapped her nose. “What could possibly be touching enough to make you cry?”
She held out her phone. “Do you want to see them?”
He smiled and agreed. Before he could take her phone, his ang He glanced at the seen before looking at her hesitantly have something to attendio at work, Kina. I.…..”

Jordan placed a blanket over her legs after she got into the car “The breeze is quite chilly today, you don’t want tocada cold.“
Ansel followed his example and placed a cushion behind her back.
Perhaps noticing that she wasn’t in a good mood, Jordan and Ansel didn’t speak on the way home. Suddenly, Ansel thought of something and tagged Jordan’s sleeve. He asked softly, “Dowe have to pooham Church to thank God for answering our prayers, Dud

“I’ll go with you.” Sabrina opened her eyes and interrupted their convention
Jordan and Ansel said in unison, “No way!–
Ansel threw his arms around her. “You’ve just recovered, Mom. There are so many steps leading to the church that I worry you’ll get tired Leave this to bed and me, okay?”
He was still a child, after all. The sight of Sabrina covered in blood after the accident had scared him.
Jordan’s expression was disapproving “Ansel is tight. How can you go somewhere so far away when you’ve just been discharged-
Sabrina insisted, though. “You guys went there to pray on my behalf. It’s only right for me to go back with you to thank God
