Lahat ng Kabanata ng While You Chose Her, I Claimed Everything: Kabanata 271 - Kabanata 280

Two days had passed since that conversation, but Victor’s words still came to Tara’s mind several times without her realizing it. Especially when the man had said that he wanted to be by her side and their child’s, not because he felt entitled to, but because he wanted to protect them.Tara did not know why that simple sentence kept coming back to her. Perhaps because Victor had said it without pressuring her to give him an answer. Perhaps also because Tara had become too accustomed to people who came to her with demands, then made her feel as though she had to prove something to be worthy of being kept.Victor was different. He simply offered himself and let Tara decide whether she wanted to accept him.Tara was beginning to realize that Victor was truly serious. The man did not become overly attentive after their conversation. At the office, Victor remained the same as before. In front of the staff, he continued to treat her as a colleague an

Those words made Kara’s chest feel even tighter.On the other hand, Helena lowered her face. She began to realize that this meeting would not go the way they had imagined. Liora had not come as a little girl who could easily be taken back by her mother. She had come with feelings, memories, and choices that had already taken shape during her time living with Tara.And for the first time, Kara did not know what to say to her own daughter.Liora did not say how she had learned everything. She also did not feel the need to explain how she had come to understand the truth. To her, that was not the most important part of their conversation.What mattered was that she knew now. And because she knew, she also wanted to honestly say what she felt.“And,” Liora drew a small breath. “Has Mommy Kara really been good to me all this time?”Kara froze. “What do you mean?”Liora looked at her mother with eyes that were beginning to well up. “You wer

Tara’s words made the atmosphere in the visitation room change instantly. Kara, who had been holding herself back all this time, could no longer hide her anger. Her face reddened, her breathing quickened, while the hatred in her gaze toward Tara was once again filled with the familiarity that had always been there.“You’re always like this!” she shouted. “Always making it seem as though you’re the one who suffers the most! Do you think that after everything that has happened, you can just take my child away?”Tara did not answer. She simply stood near Liora, allowing Kara to vent her emotions without giving her a reason to prolong the argument. However, Kara only grew angrier because she was not getting the reaction she wanted.“Liora is my daughter!” she cried. “She will come back to me once all these legal matters are over. I’ll come and get her myself. You have no right to separate a child from

Tara’s life slowly returned to normal. Occasionally, Victor would join her for breakfast. Sometimes, the man would also make time for dinner, depending on how busy he was.Tara never made an issue of his presence or absence. She understood that Victor had many matters to take care of, while she herself barely had any free time.After taking over so many responsibilities, Tara’s schedule had only grown busier. She was used to spending most of her day in meeting rooms, reviewing reports, making decisions, and ensuring that every aspect of the company was running according to plan. Most importantly, Tara never neglected her responsibility to watch over Liora and give her the best care she could.At least, there was one thing that now felt lighter. Liora no longer wondered about her father and mother. The little girl talked more about school, her progress in her studies, and the many things about herself that were developing in a better direction. Tara w

Tara immediately showed him what she had been doing all this time.“You’re choosing baby clothes?” Victor asked, his eyes lighting up with enthusiasm.“Yes.”“Good. Then come with me.”Tara frowned. “Where?”“To a baby supplies boutique,” Victor said casually.“I can choose them online.”“I know.”“Then why do we have to go?”Victor did not give a lengthy answer. He simply took out his phone and asked the nurse who was still near the room to bring a wheelchair.Tara immediately looked at him. “Victor? What do you need a wheelchair for?”“We’re going out for a while.”“I can walk.” Tara truly could not understand what was going through Victor’s mind.“I know.”“Then there’s no need for a wheelchair.”Victor looked at her calmly. “The doctor told you to rest and not tire yourself out too much.”“Yes, I know that. But we don’t have to go as far as using a wheelchair, do we?”
