When I became a spirit, I had already come to terms with the fact that my parents never loved me.

I couldn't cry back then, but my heart had already wept enough. So, no matter how harshly they spoke to me now, it didn't bother me.

I looked at their shocked faces and continued, "We met in Snowville not long ago, didn't we?"

"Are you truly Chloe? This can't be! How could this even happen?"

I held a knife and moved closer to them. As I neared Josh, he seemed to snap out of his daze, his face tense with fear.

"What are you going to do?" he asked, his voice shaky.

I bent down and calmly cut the rope binding his wrists, then stepped back.

"I understand why you're afraid of me. After all, in your hearts, it would have been better if had died. You'd be remembered as the grieving family, the good parents, the caring brother.

I helped her up and wiped away her tears. "Sweetheart, if you think our reunion is going to be all happy and harmonious, I'm afraid you're wrong. I'm no longer part of the Sanders."

Kate staggered toward me, her eyes full of tears as she looked at me like a loving mother. "Chloe, is it really you? I was wrong...

She tried to reach out, but I took a step back. "Mrs. Sander, please understand. I'm Zoey now, and my mother is Philippa."

"Chloe, are you still holding a grudge against us? We were tricked too. Can't you forgive me?"

Whitney tried to reason with me. "Chloe, we're family. You..."
