Chris said, “Young lady, can you save her?”
Willow shook her head. She signaled with her hand.
Chris guessed. “Are you saying that you can’t, but someone else can?”
Willow nodded.
“Who is it? Is it Madam Wendy?”
Willow shook her head.
This time, Chris understood Willow’s hand signs.
“Are you saying that the person is your mother?”
Willow nodded.

Willow made another sign.
“Are you saying that she’s gone somewhere far away, and you don’t know when she’ll be back? This won’t do. Mr. Miller only has one day left.
“Willow, do you have a way to make him live longer so we can wait until your mother returns?”
Willow looked at Ethan. The latter’s hearing was also affected by the venom.
There was a delay in his hearing. He could only hear what Chris was saying after several seconds.
He felt all his senses slowly fading away and was sure he was beyond help.
He held Willow’s hand as he waited for death to take him.
“Oh well, I’ll just wait for death,” he mused.
After a while, he suddenly felt sliquid on his lips. He licked his lips instinctively.
Chris’ eyes widened in surprise. He asked Willow if she had a way to prolong Ethan’s life. She actually cut her palm and fed her blood to Ethan.
It was like something out of a fantasy . It was too surreal. For a moment, Chris thought he was drearning.
After stime, he cback to his senses.
“Will this delay the effects of the poison?”
Willow nodded.
Suddenly, Wendy called out from the door, “Willow!”
Willow’s face paled. She looked at Wendy in fright, like she had done something wrong. She instinctively tried to hide her palm.
“Why would you do that? How would I face your mother if you got hurt?” Wendy quickly brought some medication and a bandage to stop the bleeding
Chris quickly asked, “Madam Wendy, Willow said her mother could save him. Is that true?”
Wendy snorted.
“So what if it’s true? Her mother left stago, and we don’t know when she’s coming back. We don’t have a phone to contact her in this village.
“Besides, even if she’s back, there’s no guarantee she would be willing to save his life.”

“Don’t waste your time. No one knows when she’ll return. No one can contact her either.”
Wendy brought Willow away after she said that.
Willow looked at Ethan with yearning in her eyes. Why did that man look so much like her sister? Was he her father?
She naturally felt a closeness to the man. She felt a pang in her heart when she saw him in such a state.
Wendy brought Willow back to her room and closed the door.
She said in a concerned tone, “Willow, my girl, did you sense something?”
Willow gestured. “Is he my father?”
Willow was almost three years old. She was starting to understand sthings.
Wendy said awkwardly, “I … I’m not sure about that.”
After all, Alicia looked a lot like Ethan, but Wendy wasn’t sure if he was Willow’s father.
“I don’t know. But even if he is, he has another woman now. He probably forgot all about your mother.
“He will have children with another woman. Even so, do you want to save him?”
