GoodRead'She never learns, does she? Hasn't she suffered enough from the last debacle? And yet, here she is again,
meddling in Quinn's affairs," he mused.
Ariel, growing impatient, rose to his feet. "Quinn, are you capable of producing the cash or not?" he demanded.
Quinn looked helplessly towards Juliet, a sense of desperation washing over her. Oh, how she wished she could
magically produce that half a million right on the spot. Upon realizing Quinn's financial incapacity, Ariel roughly
grabbed Juliet's
arm.
"Let's just leave, Mom. All talk and no action. Did you really think she'd cough up half a million for you?" juliet
shot back, "Even if she did, | wouldn't let you get your hands on it!"
Ariel's anger ignited instantly. "Whose side are you on anyway? Why do you always favor an outsider over your
own son?"
"You are my son. | carried you for nine months and brought you into this world, yet you treatthe worst!"
Juliet's eyes blazed with a mix of sorrow and fury. "My greatest regret in life was giving birth to you!"
"What the hell do you want from me?" Ariel growled, his hand involuntarily raising as if to strike her.
Unfazed, Juliet jutted out her chin defiantly. "Go ahead, hit me! If you've got the guts, takeout! | must have
been a real piece of work in my past life to end up with a monster like you."
Ariel's wife, who was watching from the sidelines tried to intervene. "Enough of this. Let's just get Mom home."
After speaking, she reached out, attempting to steady Juliet. "Mom, lethelp you."

Juliet shrugged her off. "I can walk on my own! | don't need your fake concern!" With that, she picked up her
cane, pausing to glance back at Quinn. "Quinn, I've already prepared the vegetables. Just cook them and eat.
Remember to eat on time. You're not in the best of health. Don't skip meals."
Quinn's eyes filled with tears. She clung to Juliet's hand, like a child holding onto a beloved toy she couldn't bear
to lose.
"Take care of yourself," Juliet said, her own eyes glistening. She reached out to gently wipe Quinn's cheeks.
"You're a good kid. Happiness will find you."
Ariel roughly shoved Quinn, causing her to lose her balance and fall to the ground. They departed with Juliet,
their figures growing smaller until they disappeared from her sight. Quinn clutched the hem of her shirt, staring
at the now empty doorway, her tears flowing unchecked.
'Why? Why do the people and things | care about always slip through my fingers? It happened with Alexander,
with Abigail, and with my child. And now, Juliet is gone too. Do | even deserve happiness?’ Quinn wondered.
The house returned to its former silence, leaving her utterly alone. There would be no one waiting to welcome
her home, no matter how late it was.
