"Auntie Jia, how are you today?"

Although she will leave the United States tomorrow, Jennie still didn't give up on her plan to take Jia away. The day was getting closer and closer, but the progress seemed not too great. So, in the afternoon, she borrowed the sanatorium's kitchen and personally made two delicious meals along with egg-flower soup for her to drink.

As she fed the soup to Jia, Jennie smiled and said, "Do you feel it tastes different from what you normally eat here? I made it myself, how about that? Does it taste good?"

"Auntie Jia, you must not have thought that your good friend's daughter, whom you once held in your arms, is now an adult and can cook well. Not only me, but V is also the same. Even though years have passed, we are still dependent on each other. I am fortunate to have V by my side, he gave me too much encouragement. Auntie Jia, if not for the support and confidence V gave me, maybe you will not be able to see me in this life."

After she said that, she suddenly laughed softly. "You are not in your right mind, so I can chat with you about a lot of things. Did you know, after my mother jumped, V and I were accepted into the Kim Family, but the life that the Kim Family gave us was not something two children could bear. Until now, I still don't understand what made my mother jump like that? Why did she not cherish her life? If she were to give it up just like that, why was she doing such a cruel act in front of these two children?"

"Auntie Jia, if you can wake up, can you tell me? What exactly happened that year? Why were you locked up in America? And why did my mother come here? You two sisters who were initially enthusiastic, why did you both end up like this in just a few years?"

Jia's gaze moved, and a glimmer of light flashed across her dull eyes. Jennie saw it.

Jennie continued to feed her while whispering, "Is it something that is hard to say? Even when you were facing me, you still wouldn't be able to put your heart at ease. You wouldn't be able to tell me the unspeakable secrets, right?"

She then looked at the time and said in a low voice, "Tomorrow, I will go home. At first, I wanted to bring you with me, but I don't know why it is so difficult to take you away. I thought you could tell me what had happened, at the very least, if I can successfully take you away, no matter whether it is your illness or your life in the future, it will change a lot. Auntie Jia, if you continue like this, I'm afraid Lisa and I will be helpless."

With that, she stood up. "I will go first. Have a good rest. I will see you tomorrow before I go."

Jennie walked straight to the door. Right at this moment, a sound came from behind her.

Jennie initially didn't think much of it, but as she was about to open the door,the sound of footsteps grew louder and louder until it finally caught her attention. She abruptly turned around and saw Jia, who was originally sitting on a wheelchair, trying her best to kick the table with her feet.

Jennie was startled and quickly walked back, grabbed her leg that was kicking the table hard. "Auntie Jia, what's wrong?"

Jia's eyes were wide open and there were tears in them. When she saw Jennie walking back towards her, she opened her mouth but could not utter a word for a long time.

"Don't be afraid, please be patient. What do you want to say? Slow down! I'm the only one here. No matter what happens, I'll help you, okay? Auntie Jia, don't be afraid!"

"Murderer ..." Jia forcibly uttered words as tears began to fall from her eyes. She stared at Jennie's face and slowly tilted her head. She looked at her deeply, "They are murderers ...Jen... You can't..."

"What? What murderer? What can I not do?" Jennie looked at Jia in shock and quickly grabbed her hand. "Auntie Jia, what are you trying to say? Who is the murderer? Is someone trying to kill you? Is someone trying to lock you up here?"
