Chapter 590 In the corridor outside the intensive care unit, there were several long benches. Some of the patientsâ family members sat on the benches, while others stood by the windows, but all of them had a solemn expression on their faces.
In the ward, there came the heartâwrenching cries that were beyond description. They tore through the throat, leaving oneâs heart and intestines shattered.
Thea arrived outside the ward and keenly felt the desolation of Victoriaâs motherâs impending demise. Even her calm heart was now rippling.
It is hard to say what she felt in her heart, whether it was numbness, indifference, or heartache, she couldnât justify it.
Victoria walked slowly towards her, choking back tears as she spoke, âYou finally came?â
Thea looked at her and almost didnât recognize the person in front of her. She had become so thin that her bones were visible.
The usual pride was nowhere to be seen, and at such a young age, she even had a hint of stoop.
âHehe,â Victoria chuckled selfâdeprecatingly, probably stung by Theaâs gaze.
âSeeing me in my current state, were you pleased?â
Thea said numbly, âI had no feelings at all.â
Victoria stared at her blankly, her face displaying a myriad of 0.00%

288 Vouchers Thea said, âOn the way here, I was actually pondering this question. I wondered what your motherâs mood would be like when I see her. But no matter how long I thought about it, I just couldnât figure it out.â
âHaha,â Victoria burst into laughter.
âThea, you were really ruthless.â
Thea pouted, âShould I be sad? You treated me like that, Iâm sorry, I canât sympathize with you.â
âAt least, you should have felt relieved,â Victoria exclaimed in despair.
Thea said, âThrowing stones into a well? I used to do that kind of thing, but now I donât. I wonât be foolish enough to let unimportant people reside in my heart.â
âWhat a trivial matter,â Victoria sobbed, tears streaming down her face. âThea, we have been entangled for two lifetimes. My happiness comes from you, and my misfortune also comes from you. My parents divorced because of you, and they died because of you. Our fates are closely intertwined. If you are happy, then I am unhappy. How can you say that I am an insignificant person?â
Thea calmly said, âVictoria, no oneâs fate is tightly bound to another person. You were born weak, but your parents spoiled you into becoming arrogant and spoiled, always wanting something for nothing. And when Nathan tricked me into giving away my kidney, and you tasted the sweetness of it, you became even more greedy. You always believe that everything in this world is obtained through scheming, but let 16.08%

Thea shook her head and said, âYou understand all of this now, but it was already too late.â
Victoria sobbed, âYou see, I wonât live much longer.ââ
Thea said, âAt least you did something good, you tried to live on after your mother. So she wouldnât have to experience the grief of burying her own child. Surely in the next life, God will reward you for your filial piety in faithfully serving your mother until old age, and grant you a chance to reform and start anew.â
Thea glanced at the tightly closed door of the ward and said, âAs for Victoriaâs mother, I wonât go in to see her. After all, she has become a stranger to me.â
Victoria covered her face, tears streaming through her fingers. âMy mother is dying. The doctor said she should have passed away long ago, but she clings to her last breath, unwilling to leave. Thea, I have never asked anything of you in my life, but today I beg you to go and see her. I know my mother is disappointed in me, and in her moments of lucidity, she often recalls the moments she spent with you. She cries in pain when she comes back to reality. Thea, would you please go and see her?â
The door of the intensive care unit opened at that moment.
The medical staff walked out holding a notebook, reading out the names of the patients one by one. When she mentioned the name of Victoriaâs mother, Victoria pleaded with Thea, âThea, she is living in too much pain, please let her be released.â
Chapter 590 Thea nodded.
11 288 Vourbers When Thea and Victoria entered the intensive care unit, Thea saw Victoriaâs mother lying on the bed. She appeared withered, with only a loose skin covering a skeletal frame.
The cheeks were deeply sunken. The body was filled with tubes.
Theaâs feeling of pain in her heart finally erupted like a flood.
Her tears gushed out suddenly.
She ran over unsteadily, âMom,â she called out tremblingly.
Victoriaâs motherâs fingers trembled.
The doctor told Thea, âYou must be Isabella, right? Why did you just arrive? Your mother used to call your name more than ten times a day when she was first admitted to the hospital. Although she canât move now, she should be able to hear, so you can talk to her.â
Thea, however, didnât know where to begin. In the end, she casually picked up one thing to say, âVictoria said that after you developed dementia, you often mention me? She thought that you, in your old age, suddenly realized and appreciated my goodness?â
âHehe. She is your own daughter, but it seems like she really doesnât understand you.â
âYour favoritism towards her has always been unreasonable. If you want to see me now, Iâm afraid itâs just to entrust her to me at the last moment. Are you trying to make me take care of her more?â

Chapter 590 âIf so, then you just blink your eyes.â
Victoriaâs motherâs eyelids twitched.
Thea smiled bitterly and said, âIndeed, I knew you well.â
1288 (Vouchers Victoria stood behind Thea and saw it all, her mind went blank.
Thea sighed and said, âYou say you loved her so much, you treated me so cheaply, why should I agree to your demands?â
âShe was neither my real sister nor treated me well. While she was unhappy, I, on the other hand, was happy.â
Victoriaâs mother waved her hands excitedly.
Thea said, âI know that if I donât agree with you, you will keep holding onto this grudge. Am I right?â
Victoriaâs mother quieted down.
Thea fell into a long silence.
Finally, she murmured, âYou would morally blackmail me until death.â
Victoria trembled suddenly, she rushed forward and cried out, âMom, just go ahead and leave. I donât need Theaâs pity, I also have dignity.â
Thea looked at Victoria and suddenly laughed.
âHowever, although you were heartless towards me, your adopted daughter, you were boundlessly loving towards your own biological daughter. Your maternal love was truly awe- inspiring. Go ahead, I promise you, I will give Victoria a 71.91%

Victoria stared wideâeyed, in that moment, she felt guilty towards Thea.
She slowly turned around, only to see Theaâs red eyes. She murmured, âThea.â
Thea selfâmockingly said, âVictoria, you see that. I also had moments of insignificance and powerlessness. However, I didnât dwell on it. I just let go of what I couldnât obtain.â
After saying that, Thea left without looking back.
For Victoriaâs deceased mother, she did not provide any explanation.
Regardless of what happened to Victoriaâs mother, she left resolutely as if she were a stranger.
And Victoria, no longer had the face to force her to stay and take on any responsibility.
âMom...â
Victoria threw herself onto her mother and burst into tears.
Her life was miserable, but she received the purest love from her parents. She used to be confused and couldnât see the pure and profound love. Now that she has realized it, it is already too la
