The Heiress Nobody Saw Coming

Chapter 763

"Keep walking. Don't look back."

Sky was still calling Emma's name when a soft, gentle female voice suddenly drifted in from the sea of blue flowers.

"See how Emma's doing now. Then, you'll finally be at peace."

The voice seemed to pull at him, and before he knew it, his body moved on its own, following the sound through the endless expanse of hydrangeas. The flowers grew taller, fuller, their brilliant blue petals nearly engulfing him as he walked deeper into the field.

After what felt like forever, Sky emerged on the other side-into a new scene, where he saw Emma.

Her long hair was let down. She was wearing a light pink tracksuit and was playing volleyball with a group of people.

Laughter spilled from her lips nonstop. After the game, she headed inside the house, where everything, from furniture to appliances, was perfectly in place. Then, someone familiar appeared.

It was her biological mother, Cindy.

"Mom, I'd love to have baked salmon for dinner tonight. Is that okay?"

Emma grinned and clung to Cindy playfully.

"Of course, sweetie. I'll go and get groceries to cook for you tonight."

"Thanks, Mom!"

"You're all sweaty. Take a shower and change. You've got class to attend soon." Cindy smiled lovingly and patted Emma gently. "Be good and pay attention in school."

"Got it! I'm going to shower now."


Emma headed upstairs. Sky watched as she disappeared into a pink-themed bedroom.

She went into the walk-in closet to grab some fresh clothes, then into the bathroom.

The sound of running water echoed faintly. He couldn't see her anymore, but he could hear her singing.

"I love showers, bubbles everywhere, la la la...

"I love learning, growing every day, la la la la...

"Flowers are pretty, I've gotta take care of them, la la la..."
