Chương 267: The end of the year

When the exams for the students at Veteris University finished, they let out a large sigh of relief that they were done with it. Most of the students had either started or were done packing their bags in the dorm, ready to go back to their home and spend a two-month vacation with their families or with their friends. 

And while most of the students did that, Julie sat in her dorm, with her clothes still in the closet and her things still on the table, where she hadn't gotten ready, unlike the other students. 

She sat at her study table, staring at the picture frame of her mother and her in it. Her surrogate mother... Natalie. Even though most of her life she had despised Natalie, after knowing the pain and anxiety the person had gone through before her death had made Julie forgive the woman. And even though the situation was twisted, she was glad to have Natalie as her mother, who loved and cared for her.
