Blizzard, First Love and a Wife Who Finally Snaps novel Chapter 89

Thinking back.

Isabel had spent a lot of time with her grandmother when she was little.

Her mother, in her youth, had also thrown herself headfirst into love.

Knowing her father wanted a son, she had left Isabel with her grandmother right after she was born to try for a second child.

But in doing so, she had damaged her health and became unable to conceive again. It was only after her grandmother passed away that she brought Isabel back home.

Isabel had resented her for it, but though her mother had been absent for the first few years, she had done her best to raise her afterward, giving her everything she could.

The Hayes family only ran a small business. Compared to a top-tier wealthy family like Adrian's, they were worlds apart.

Yet, her mother had raised her to be like the daughter of a prestigious family.

She not only learned the classical arts but also self-defense.

If she was ever bullied, she was to fight back. Her mother would handle the consequences, telling her not to be afraid.

But the time her mother had with her was also limited.

The cancer diagnosis came as a sudden blow.

Around that same time, they were kicked out of the house by her father.

The entire burden fell on her shoulders.

Later, when her mother could barely speak clearly, she was still thinking about finding a source of support for her.

Before Isabel had used her mother's heart to force Adrian into marriage, her mother had secretly applied for organ donation and undergone compatibility testing without her knowledge.

By some coincidence, it turned out to be a perfect match for Adrian's grandmother.

There was even very little organ rejection.

She never knew if that was a good thing or a bad thing.

But if it were possible, she would trade it all away.

Just to have them alive.

...

Isabel descended the mountain and returned to the cabin.

Selena was there again, persistently trying to persuade old Mr. Reed.

Old Mr. Reed was preparing to make breakfast.

Isabel went to gather some firewood and started the fire.

Selena came over and took the firewood from her hands.
