Chapter 186 Outsider at the Gate

Jane collapsed to her knees, grabbing Marianna's pant leg with both hands as tears streaked down her face. "Marianna, I know I've sinned. I don't blame the Hensleys for throwing me out. But please, just let me kneel before Dad. I need to say goodbye. I need to apologize. That's all I want." Marianna closed her eyes and inhaled slowly, her face unreadable, voice like frost. "If you really understand your sins, then you should know you've lost any right to be here. You caused the death of Dad's eldest son, your own husband, and he died still hating you. There's no redemption here. Dad doesn't need your tears. Neither do we. You're not a Hensley anymore. And don't even think about reaching out to Hugh again."
