Chapter 181 Here’s Your Father

Paulo’s words were highly effective.

Erin began to take deep breaths and silently repeated in her mind. “Ok, calm down! I need to stay calm! I need to stay alive for my child so that I can get him back. I must undergo treatment-”

Without hesitation, Erin blurted, “No!”

If she were still her old self, she would want to see her family as soon as possible and reassure them not to worry. But now, in her current state, she didn’t have the courage to face them. At least, she wasn’t mentally prepared for it yet. If her family saw her, it would only add to their sadness and sorrow. If they were upset, she would be upset as well. This would ultimately increase the emotional burden on each

For her to be able to return to normal social human speech eased Paulo’s mind by a little. Though it was just a small change, it was

indicative of Erin’s mental condition. She was stronger than he’d imagined.
