Chapter 856 I was quite relieved and asked, "Tellwhat your favorite food is and I'll bring smore for you later." "I'm fine with anything. I'm not a picky eater." After a pause, Susan continued, "But don't bring too much because I can't finish everything all by myself. It'll be a waste if they go bad." "Okay." After hanging up the phone, I looked around the kitchen but could not find a takeout container.
I walked to the kitchen door and shouted outside the villa, "Can you chere for a moment, Theo?" After shouting, I continued to look for a takeout container.
The sound of footsteps was heard and I asked, "Theo, do we have takeout containers at home? I'm going to pack the food now so you can send them to Susan when I'm done." I did not get a response for a long tand looked up curiously.

She held my wrist and I frowned, sounding a little displeased. "What is it?" "Can we talk, Wanda?" Petra's tears were at the brink of flowing out. Although she had gotten on in years now, her beauty was still clear to see.
I turned back to look at her, my gaze falling on her worn-out face. I felt a pang in my heart. It was as though someone was clenching my heart. It was so painful to even take a breath.
Why was this happening? I did not know.
I finally found my voice. I looked at her and carried myself in a slightly distant manner. "I don't think we should talk." I did not want to experience the feeling of ripping apart old wounds again and then analyze why I was once hurt.

If I forgave her, I would feel sorry for my dead baby.
I looked outside the window. The sun was shining and I could hear Om ve Munchkin laughing vaguely.
I took a deep breath and looked calmly at Petra. "I'm a person with a really poor memory Thinking about it now, my memories before I was ten have becsomewhat blurred, but there are sthings in my mind that I still remember until now." X
