Chapter 265: Regained your—WHAT?!

''You...'' Luciana was speechless.

''What are friends for?" Esme rolled her eyes at the woman's exaggerated expressions.

Luciana glanced at Esme quietly for a moment.

''To tell you the truth...'' Luciana licked her bottom lips, ''I never planned to do what my father wanted. I was trying to think of a way to trick him.''

And that caught Esme off guard.

''I want my mother's belongings, Es. I truly do. I am so scared that as I grow old, I will lose the remnants of her memories. In a moment of weakness, I wanted to do what my father wanted,'' Luciana shook her head, ''But I am not going against my conscience again. If my mother was alive, she would have been so upset that I grew up to be such a person. She would never have been proud of me for throwing my conscience away even if I do it for her. I... do not want a burden on my shoulders anymore.''
