Chapter 1585
Leia was still quite young, but she had been through a lot.
So, she was able to hide her emotions very well.
"This is my first time here.
I couldn't sleep, so I decided to walk around for a bit." Janice replied, "You know that Ethan's here, too.
If he sees you out there, he'll definitely..." Leia cut her off immediately, "Do you think he doesn't know that my limbs are healed?
If he really wanted to kill me, he would've done it three years ago.
In the end, he's just like you—delusional about love and weak- minded." Back then, Ethan didn't choose to kill her.
He only severed her tendons.
That was his way of avenging Olivia.
Moreover, Olivia was still alive.
Ethan probably wouldn't hurt her anymore.
1 "You're not like us at all, Leia." Leia smiled bitterly.
"Who says I'm not like the two of you?" The delusional way of thinking seemed to run in the family.
Her parents and Ethan were like that, and she was the same.
She knew that her life belonged to Avery the moment he saved her life.
"Alright.
Don't wander too far, and don't cause any trouble." "T won't." Leia took a few more steps forward before freezing in her tracks
and looking back to Janice.
"Mom." Janice froze.
She looked at Leia in disbelief.
"What did you call me?" She had been doting on Leia for the past few years.
Leia had always been very gloomy and rarely spoke.
She was also very cold to Janice.
Janice understood that she had done a lot of terrible things to Leia in the past.
So, she endured whatever attitude Leia gave her.
She never expected Leia to do anything for her.
She just wanted to spend the rest of her life making it up to Leia.
She swore she would give all the love she had to her two kids.
So, it was a really big deal for her when Leia called her "Mom".
Her eyes teared up immediately.
She looked at Leia with disbelief again.
“What did you call me just now?" "Mom," Leia said it even louder this time.
Janice rushed forward to wrap her arms around Leia.
"Good...
Good girl.
I've been waiting for this for solong." 1 Leia hated Janice when she was younger.
She blamed her for everything that happened to her.
She had many extreme thoughts too.
She thought she would never forgive Janice and wanted her to feel remorse for the rest of her life.
Her mindset changed as she grew older.
She started to understand the pain that Janice was going through.
Janice was hurting a lot too.
Although Janice was in the wrong, she had already punished herself enough over the years.
Leia hugged Janice back and said softly, "Mom, I've forgiven you." Janice's tears soaked Leia's shirt.
"Silly girl, I haven't been a good mother to you at all." "If there's a next life, you have to love me with all your heart." Leia's abrupt
words made Janice feel uneasy.
"What are you saying? uw "I just regret not being by your side when I was a child.
So, I hope I can be your daughter again in my next life.
Don't push me away then, okay?" Janice thought about how cute Leia was when she was one year old.
She would always rush toward Janice and mutter "Mom" softly.
Janice had wanted to pull Leia into her arms, but she suddenly had an episode and pushed Leia away.
When Leia grew up a little, she became more and more like her father.
So, Janice started to insult her and beat her up.
If she hadn't done all that, Leia probably wouldn't have run away from home.
"It's all my fault.
You don't have to wait until your next life.
I'll make it up to you right now for all the things I did in the past.
Leia, I'll never hurt you again." But Leia didn't have the chance to experience that anymore.
The punishment for betraying Toxic Hive was death.
