As she was about to snap, she saw Maureen’s pale face and closed eyes.

She was stunned on the spot.

Before she could ask what had happened, her gaze fell upon the empty pill bottle blown by the wind.

As she strode forward and picked it up, the words “Sleeping Pills” came into her view.

What Maureen had said a few days earlier echoed in her mind.

“If I die, you’ll no longer be my mother, and I’ll owe you nothing. Is that correct?”

The umbrella fell to the ground.

Clutching the bottle, she glared at Maureen in great disbelief. Her face was drenched, perhaps by the rainwater or her

tears.

“You damned girl! How dare you!

“I gave you your life!”

Her rosy lips trembled.
