Chapter 167

Time passed extremely slowly. Yet, it also felt like she had merely taken a nap and woken up:

Winslet opened her eyes in a daze, and the person in front of her was none other than Thomas, whose face was dark and grim,

"Dad... Dad..." Winslet's voice was hoarse. She glanced around and saw her mother beside her.

Winslet couldn't hold back her tears and clutched Layla's hand. She said, "Mom, give me a mirror... Give me a mirror!"
