Whispers Turn to Whimpers: Could He Ever Change?

Chapter 688

Through that crack, the flames outside soared high into the night sky!

For Sherilyn, those flames were once the harbingers of her doom, yet now, she saw in them a glimmer of hope for life!

"Jenna, Jenna..."

Tears streaming down her face, Sherilyn called out for her daughter.

Unloved by the world, living had been a constant struggle for her, but she couldn't die. Not yet. What would become of Jenna if she were gone?

If she were to die, Jenna would endure the same bleak existence.

Jenna was still so young...

No, she couldn't let Jenna have the same life she had endured!

She had to survive. She must, for what right did she have as a mother to selfishly leave this world just because she was tired?

"Jenna, Jenna..."

Repeating her daughter's name was the only thing keeping her going.

With no strength left in her body, Sherilyn crawled on the ground, inching towards the crack, slowly raising her hand in a futile attempt to pry it open. "Jenna, Jenna..."
