Her Regret Is My Final Masterpiece

Summary

All because I refused to cook a goddamn meal for the man Victoria had spent her whole life loving.

That was why she pulled the plug on my mother’s treatment.

I was burning up with a hundred-and-three-degree fever, kneeling in the freezing sleet outside her townhouse for an entire night, begging her. I called her phone over and over, my fingers numb and bleeding from the cold, until the line finally went dead. She had blocked me.

By the time I dragged myself back to the oncology ward, my mother was already gone. She died in agonizing pain.
