92 Mother

Apart from being abducted by traffickers at the age of four, she also remembered being beaten at three.

In reality, most children at the age of three should have little memory. She vaguely remembered being beaten at that age, but perhaps the memory was too profound that in her dreams, she could clearly hear Poppy’s scolding.

Keira smiled bitterly.

Twitter.

The person who sent her the message was named Josh, who had been following her for over two years.

Josh wrote, “Ms. S, I won’t back down this time! I want to be like you, fearless in the face of authority, and brave enough to expose the truth to the public! If you can see this message, I hope you can give me your

blessing.”

Keira was perplexed.

As she was puzzling over it, there was a knock at her door.
