Chapter 432

Marian had completely forgotten about the bracelet she was clutching tightly in her palm. It wasn't until her current "mother" cautiously attempted to remove it that she remembered the her little sister who was still waiting for her in the snowy wilderness.

Her current "mother" asked if she could take a look at the bracelet, but she shook her head in terror, fearing the woman might return to find her sister and abandon her.

She still remembered when she and her sister were snatched up by the "scar- faced uncle" and brought to a couple dressed in slightly shabby clothes. The lady had initially wanted to take her away, but when she saw the other girl who arrived later, she changed her mind and wanted to take her sister instead. If it wasn't for scar-face demanding more cash, her sister would have been taken away.

In her eyes, being taken away by the couple had to be better than sticking with scar-face and getting beaten and starved.

So, when faced with the auntie's concerned and curious questions, she hesitated and clutched the bracelet even tighter, too scared to show it or to tell her that the girl was still out there waiting for her.

Her current mother didn't press to see it; she just told her that if it was so important to her, she should take good care of it and not lose it.

She nodded uneasily, agreeing, and gripped the bracelet even tighter in her hand, afraid to let go.

The beads dug into her palm, getting tighter and tighter. Suddenly, they seemed to morph into a snake, slithering out from between her fingers as if they had a mind of their own, hissing ominously at her, its face slowly shifting into that of that girl. With a scream, Marian awoke: "Ah."
