When She Turns Her Back Chapter 586
The moment Nancy appeared, Talia became invisible, reduced to just another stranger on the street. Yet before Nancy had arrived, Yvonne had been so sweet with her.The realization stung. Talia turned on the faucet and washed her hands, then walked out of the bathroom.Nancy and Yvonne sat together on the couch, talking about the afternoon's events. Yvonne had completely forgotten about her mother.When Talia emerged from the bathroom, Yvonne froze for a moment. Nancy also looked at her, her eyes full of wariness and suspicion.But Talia didn't spare either of them a glance. She walked straight out of the bedroom. The second she left, laughter and chatter erupted behind her.Talia stopped just outside the door, her back against the wall. Her composure was barely holding.Then Christian stepped out of the adjacent room. He stood in the doorway, concern etched on his face. "Are you alright?"Talia looked up at him briefly but said nothing. He took in her exhausted expression and th

Nancy limped into the bedroom, dragging her injured leg behind her.Yvonne rushed out of the bathroom and ran toward her. When she got close, she stopped short, afraid of bumping into Nancy's injured leg. Standing a few feet away, she looked up at Nancy with hurt written all over her face.Nancy didn't dare crouch. So, she stared down at Yvonne, tears welling in her eyes.Yvonne burst into tears. "Why didn't you come find me?"Tears filled Nancy's eyes as well, her voice breaking. "I'm sorry, sweetheart. It's all my fault."Yvonne cried harder. "Do you know how scared I was this afternoon? I kept hoping you would show up and tell me that everything was okay, that you were here. But you never came."Nancy stepped forward and bent down despite the pain, wiping the tears from Yvonne's face. Every single word she spoke dripped with guilt."I tried to find you, sweetheart. I really did. But I couldn't walk properly with my leg like this, and I—"Yvonne cut her off. "But why did it t

By the time Christian carried Yvonne into the bedroom, she had woken up. She still rested against his shoulder as Talia followed behind them. When Yvonne opened her eyes and saw her mother, Talia smiled gently. "Let's get you cleaned up before bed, okay?"Yvonne was still groggy from sleep. Seeing Talia here at Jubilee Manor threw her off. She wasn't sure whether to acknowledge Talia.But then the memories came flooding back, and Yvonne nodded. "Okay."After Christian set Yvonne down, Talia steadied her daughter. Yvonne's clothes were filthy, so Talia planned to undress her before the bath.Christian hadn't left the room yet, so Talia turned to face him and said, "She's getting older now. You should probably step out while I help her change."Realization crossed Christian's face. "You're right. I'll go."The thought hit him suddenly. Yvonne was still too young to understand these boundaries on her own. He needed to help her learn them.In that moment, Christian realized Talia wa

In the car, Yvonne nestled against Talia's side. With Nancy absent, her mother was all she had.The day's events still frightened her, and she leaned against Talia in silence. Talia turned her head, watching Christian and Quentin through the window.Christian approached Quentin without any hint of aggression, simply holding his umbrella in the rain. His black coat blended into the gathering darkness.After a long silence, Christian raised the umbrella slightly higher. His dark eyes fixed on Quentin, but he didn't speak.Quentin shifted uncomfortably under the scrutiny. "What are you looking at?"Christian's question came out of nowhere. "How did you do it?"Quentin blinked in surprise, then barked out a laugh. "What's this? Looking for tips from your competition?"Christian couldn't stand that smug expression. His face went cold. "Forget it. Never mind."He turned to head back to the car. But then Quentin called out behind him. "Christian."Christian stopped in spite of himsel

Christian stood, still holding Yvonne's hand, and repositioned the umbrella over Talia's head. His voice came out hoarse as he said, "It's over. She's safe."Talia looked at him. The resentment in her eyes hadn't diminished one bit despite finding Yvonne safe. She said nothing, choosing silence instead.Lionel arrived shortly after. Seeing that Yvonne had been found, he finally allowed himself to relax. After a moment's consideration, he walked over to Christian."Mr. Lane," Lionel greeted him respectfully.Yvonne stood beside Christian, holding his hand. Talia remained under the umbrella, her gaze unconsciously searching for Quentin.He stood beneath a tree, watching them. Across the rain-soaked street, their gazes locked.Quentin wore a smile tinged with pride. She knew exactly what he was thinking. He wanted credit for finding Yvonne.Beside her, Christian was saying something to Lionel, but Talia didn't catch a single word. She only vaguely sensed their conversation was comi

The moment Talia learned Yvonne was missing, only one thought consumed her. She would give up everything to have her daughter back safe. Now, with Yvonne standing right in front of her, unharmed, the knot of anxiety in her chest finally loosened.Talia didn't care about the dirt. She pressed her face against Yvonne's, her voice trembling. "You're okay. You're safe now."Tears streamed down her face as she spoke. Yvonne's heart ached. She lifted her small hands to Talia's face and wiped away the tears.The gesture made Talia's chest tighten. In this moment, it felt like she had her daughter back.Yvonne kept wiping at the tears, her voice soft. "Don't cry, Mommy. You don't look pretty when you cry."Talia nodded through her sobs. "Okay. I won't cry anymore."Quentin stood nearby, watching the reunion unfold. His heart ached for Talia.The rain showed no signs of stopping. Even though it wasn't heavy, it still soaked them all. Talia, Yvonne, and Quentin looked equally bedraggled.
