Chapter 43

Evelyn noticed an anger that she had witnessed from Beth before. Henry would not believe her that it was there whenever she spoke about Veronica. She knew how much Beth loved her since she lost her parents and wanted a mother to fill what she missed but sometimes that love scared her.

Evelyn raised Beth more than she raised Veronica so what more could Beth want from her?

"Beth. Sweetie," Evelyn said in a sweet tone. "I am never going to leave you. You are like my daughter. Someone would have to be threatening me to leave you for me to think of doing that. You show me more respect than the daughter I birthed. As long as you allow me, I will be at your side."

Beth sighed in relief that she was not going to lose Evelyn to Veronica. "Good. What will we have for breakfast?"

"I don't know what the cook is preparing. Beth, I will still be going to see Veronica today and whenever I feel like it," said Evelyn.
