Kayla's guess was straight to the point and terrifyingly accurate.
"You didn't escape together, so you must have abandoned Felicia and fled by yourself, right? If you betrayed her
once, what difference does it make if you do it again? "Roberta, you need to think more for yourself. If you don't
want your future to be ruined, and you want your mother to live well, you warning you not to defy my words
better behave. | and test my patience."
Kayla extended her hand and demanded once more, "For the last time, give it to me!"
Roberta closed her eyes and resignedly handed over the white porcelain bottle she had been clutching tightly.
Her voice was hoarse as she asked, "If | give it to you, can | see my mother?"
"You can," Kayla replied. Her eyes had a mix of pity and mockery as she took the bottle and

At that moment, Roberta didn't understand why Kayla had looked at her that way, but everything becclear
when she visited the sanatorium.
Talia had told her mother about her captivity in that village.
To punish them both, Talia visited the sanatorium an hour earlier. While Roberta's mother, Eileen Lutz was still
lucid, Talia showed her a video of Roberta being humiliated and tortured in that village. Eileen lost control again
after witnessing her daughter's suffering firsthand. It took five or six doctors to hold her back as she went into a
frenzy and tried to attack Talia.
Eileen screamed and roared in despair.
Talia laughed triumphantly and mocked her. "This is what you get for trying to take my man. Eileen, you're just a
burden to your daughter to live like this. You might as well die."
By the tRoberta arrived at the sanatorium, Eileen had been sedated and restrained to the bed. The doctors
informed Roberta that her mother now had tendencies to take her own life. Roberta felt the world spin.
Everything turned dark and devoid of light. Why were they being so cruel to her and Eileen?
That night, Roberta
stayed by Eileed and cried until she was exhausted. She eventually fell asleep, only to relive those horrifying and
nauseating scenes in her nightmares.
"No, no... please letgo..
Roberta trembled in her sleep and felt a pair of hands gently stroke her back, patting her

softly. It felt like she was a child being lulled to sleep.
Roberta gradually stopped crying and finally found peace.

Just as dawn broke that morning, she woke up from her nightmare to see Eileen's peaceful sleeping face.
However, silent cries of despair tore through the sanatorium soon after. Eileen had died.
When Talia received the news, she was sitting with Kayla and planning on slipping the poison into Felicia's food.
She sneered upon hearing the news and uttered, "Serves her right!"
Kayla didn't bother to care about Roberta and Eileen. In fact, it had been her idea to send Talia to the sanatorium
to torment Eileen, all to teach Roberta a lesson for standing up to them tand again. "Talia, Felicia will be
coming over soon since today's the weekend. How about slipping it into her juice so she can drink it?" Kayla
could hardly wait to get rid of the troublesFelicia.
Talia glanced at her with disdain. "If | give it to her, do you really think she'll drink it? You should do it since
you're her sister after all."
Neither wanted to act since they feared they'd be suspected.
After a moment of contemplation, Kayla slammed her hand on the table.
"Let's have Roberta do it. Felicia seems to trust her, and since Roberta stole the poison, we can just blame
everything on her once it's done!"
