"What happened???"
Jorah asked in confusion. However, the old witch was just as baffled as he was. She had no idea where did it all go wrong.
"This can't be happening. My spell was just a second away from revealing their faces so how did this happen??"
Rather than giving Jorah an answer to his question, the old witch came asking herself instead and expressed her own confusion as well.
But then after a short while, a sudden realization dawned on her. Recalling what the cat just said a moment ago, she finally confirmed that there was really something strange with the mortals that they were trying to trace.
"Just as you have said, it seemed that there was really something protecting them."
The old witch said. Her hand was touching her chin as she was deep into contemplation.
"Then does it mean th
"Oh by the way... Aren't you forgetting something???"Aunt Jianye suddenly asked Luo Ruoxin as she presented her open palm in front of Luo Ruoxin's face"We all have to contribute.."She added while waiting for Luo Ruoxin to give her what she wanted."Remind me how we are all contributing again???"Luo Ruoxin could not help but rebut as she handed her hard-earned money to Aunt Jianye with a heavy heart."You. Are. So. UNGRATEFUL!"Aunt Jianye said that to rebuke Luo Ruoxin, word by word."And how am I ungrateful?! I worked six hours a day at Santa Land. I do holiday singing grams every nigh---""Quit bragging at my face?!!!"Aunt Jiaye said in annoyance but Luo Ruoxin retorted right away."I'M NOT BRAGGING! I- I- I just would li
"How are the clothes, little girl? Is it to your liking?"Jorah asked as soon as he got inside Abby's room."Yes, Jorah. I love it."Abby replied without bothering to hide her excitement, then she put the clothes next to her to show Jorah how well it looked like on her.""It suits you very well."The cat commended, then he headed to the bathroom since Abby's room also came with a bathroom of its own."Go and wash yourself. Make it quick. Master Eugene said that we will go outside. So you bettermake haste before he even got a chance to change his mind."Jo
"How much for these?"She heard Eugene asking out of the blue.Caught in between her tangled thoughts, Abby failed to realize that they already walked inside one of the emporiums. As such, when her soul was pulled back to reality, Abby almost jumped on her feet.Because standing not too far away from where she was, was a creature that was enough to give anyone a nightmare.Eugene, on the other hand, already expected such a reaction from Abby. So he was considerate enough to put his arm over Abby.Meanwhile, the warmth that he brought seemed to work its wonder at Abby because as soon as the other party felt his hand over her, she instantly calmed down.For some reason, Abby found Eugene's presence quite reassuring as though no harm would come in her way as long as the other party was around."T
Starring the paper in her hand which contained the spell that would bring her to where her Aunt Sarah was, Abby was somewhat conflicted.Even just by the mere thought of seeing the other party's face again as well as hearing the voices of her two other stepsiblings, Mara and Clara, was enough to make Abby's stomach churned in discomfort.She had been under their constant abuse and mistreatment for years so it was hard for her to just simply get rid of her deep seated fear and aversion towards the three of them.Eugene, on the other hand must have sensed Abby's discomfort so he came to her and offered her his words of reassurance."If you are not ready yet. We can do this some other day. You don't have to force yourself."He said as he reached out for Abby's hand and squeezing it lightly. For some reason, Abby found the other party's touch qui
Meanwhile, seeing that Abby did not seem to have anything to say, Eugene continued speaking kind word towards her so that she would not feel bothered."I won't let them touch even a single strand of your hair. Do you get that? Hmm???"
Meanwhile, seeing that Abby did not seem to have anything to say, Eugene continued speaking kind word towards her so that she would not feel bothered by what they were about to do.Since he could somewhat see that Abby still cared for her family. Regardless of how bad they treated her before, she did not wish anything ill happen to them.
I read the words slowly, and it was as if I could see my aunt's face.“Lead mihi quo vos es. Sic vadum is exsisto ... ”And now what I see is clearer. I can't explain but I seem to see their every move. It was as if I was watching them right now.“Lead mihi quo vos es. Sic vadum is exsisto !!! ”Suddenly a gust of wind blew towards me. Brylle and Vander looked at me… "What's up?"
“But please…”“We already help you here Alyanna so you have no right to answer! Did you get it?"I want to cry every time I remember that day. Not just because I know my parents will never come back… but because I will live in a house where I will not be considered a relative of my roommates.I will not get any mercy or love from these people. And that is the most painful truth I will ever accept.I endured it for several years. I cried for years.
