No. She just couldn't let go of the opportunities andbenefits she reaped from our family.”

Cordelia took another deep breath and continued, "You were sheltered by your mother since you were a child. Even if she didnot raise you well, she did put in the work like you said. | know you want to fulfill your filial duty to her, but it's different for yourbrother. Your mom did not treat him well. Over the years, Keegan had repaid her for giving birth to him. So, what he does next isup to him. Neither you nor your mother has the right to say anything.

Aurora stayed silent.
When Dahlia heard Cordelia's remarks from her daughter, she was so angry that she pushed everything off the table. Aurorapursed her lips and said in a low voice, "Mom, why don't you ask Keegan to take you back? He's the only one with the power todo that right now."
“Your brother has long lost his mind to that whore, Stella. He's not going to listen to me," Dahlia bitterly said.Aurora did not respond. She did not want to talk aboutStella since it reminded her of when she was locked up.
“How are things going between you and Marshall?"
"He has a girlfriend now," Aurora whispered.

“I'm not sure. He took her to a wedding; | saw the post on Facebook."
