Where Petals of Vengeance Bloom

Chapter 493

Vanessa's face was alight with smug satisfaction as she glanced over at her biological mother, Sophia.

"Mom, once I get her kidney, will I finally be okay?"

Dressed in scrubs and preparing to operate on her own daughter, Sophia gently stroked Vanessa's hair with motherly affection.

"Of course, sweetheart. As long as I'm here, you have nothing to worry about. You'll be healthy again in no time."

Vanessa's lips curled into a blissful smile, but a flicker of worry soon clouded her expression.

"Mom, what if she goes to the police after we forcefully take her kidney?"

Sophia stroked her head reassuringly. "Don't be afraid. Once we have her kidney, Nathan-that idiot-will send her far away, across the border. No one will ever be able to find her. Even if something happens to her, no one will be able to trace it back to us."

At this, Vanessa finally relaxed.
