Chapter 14

• It was tough for Grace to witness her mother being buried just two months after the Whipple surgery. What made her weep more was that she kept the truth about her marriage from her mother, who never knew the truth before she died.
• Victor was there at the burial with her, he was the one comforting her, even though he did so because he had no choice.
• For three weeks, she wasn't herself, and Victor permitted Vera to be with her during that time. Grace would remain in her room all day, only coming out when Vera insisted or when she needed to eat, which she was also being forced to.
