" Blair gave a bitter smile . She had no idea where Tilda went after leaving the Jensons. More than once , Blair thought about texting her , but then remembered - she didn't even have Tilda's number . Any messages she sent just vanished . When she scrolled through the family WhatsApp group , " A Loving Family , " filled with cheerful chats , one thing stood out - Tilda was missing . The more Blair looked , the more she thought , Have I been too careless as a mom ? Is there anyone more neglectful than me ? But deep down , she knew Kyla mattered more to her . They weren't related by blood , but Blair had raised Kyla since she was little . Years of love and memories had built a bond . Tilda , her real daughter , still felt like a stranger after less than half a month together . The connection was nothing like with Kyla . Still , the guilt about Tilda wouldn't go away . " You know what ? Maybe just let it go . Tonight , let's focus on talking about Kyla marrying my son . " Daphne didn't care about Tilda , thinking people like her - unstable and unpredictable - were better left out of the picture . " But Daphne , our families originally planned for Tilda to marry Preston . That's why Kyla said no . Now that Tilda's back , Kyla definitely won't accept the engagement . " D 1 " Well , that's where we moms have to step in . Since Tilda already cut ties with the Jensons , Kyla won't feel bad . I've watched Kyla grow up - she's the perfect daughter - in - law . You've got to help me ... If it were up to Daphne , the engagement with Tilda would've been canceled ages ago . Even though she was close to the Jensons , she believed Tilda - without a top - tier education - would never fit in with the Bells . She'd only bring trouble . Suddenly , Blair froze , staring ahead . " Tilda ?! What are you doing here ? " At first , Blair thought she was seeing things .

Didn't Tilda cut all ties with the Jensons ? 76 % +10 Free Coins Sky Dining wasn't just about money - Daphne herself had to wait two weeks for a reservation , even as a Bell . Without the Jensons ' help , how could Tilda get a table ? Tilda didn't even glance at Blair , acting like she didn't know her . That annoyed Blair . " You're Tilda , right ? I'm your mother . Why are you ignoring me ? " " Mrs. Jenson , watch what you say ." Tilda finally spoke . " We have no relationship anymore . Don't rush to call yourself my mother - I'm honored , but I'm not worthy of being a Jenson . " " What ... Tilda , stop with the drama ! Are you trying to hurt me ? I'm your real mother ! " " Real mother ? " Tilda let out a bitter , cold laugh . " If this is what a mother is , then I really don't want one . " Save your love for Kyla . I don't need it ." Their voices drew the attention of Jude and Maurice . " Hey , Jude , sounds like your girl's in an argument . Isn't that Russell's wife ? Wait - that's your Aunt Daphne , right ? " Maurice looked confused . What's going on ? He didn't know Tilda's story , but he was sure Jude did - Jude always dug up everything about his targets . Jude stayed silent , his cold eyes still fixed on Tilda . When their gazes met , there was a flicker of concern in his eyes .

Tilda looked straight at her , unable to fake a smile anymore . Give Kyla a break ? The Jensons must be blind if they thought I haven't done enough already . I've stepped back again and again , terrified of breaking Kyla's fragile heart - until there was nowhere left for me to retreat .
