Chapter 165

• Evening approached and sensing that the tension had somewhat eased, Marisol decided to seek out her parents. She knew that despite everything, they loved her, and though they could be a little overbearing sometimes, they were still the best parents a girl could ask for. She hoped their meeting would yield a positive result this time.
• Venturing out into the woods, Marisol soon spotted her mother, Nicole, strolling alone among the trees. A mixture of apprehension and hope swirled in Marisol's heart as she approached her mother, unsure of how their interaction would unfold.
• Though she had often rebelled against her parents and thrown tantrums, Marisol had never been disrespectful towards them. Today, she'd broken all the rules and her mother's unreadable demeanor throughout the whole ordeal made her even more terrified of her reaction.
