Chapter 998:

In that instant, Kallie felt as though she were teetering on the edge of madness, overwhelmed by a tidal wave of shock that pounded relentlessly at her temples, sparking a fierce, splitting headache.

Initially, Kallie had resolved to approach the situation with calmness and poised questions, but the torrent of emotions washed away her composure. Her heart pounded with uncertainty. Had her intense outburst terrified the girl, who claimed to be her daughter?
