But now, she was wavering.
Harper Wood, hugging Riley Dupont, looked at Aurora Dupont. Having been married to Lincoln Dupont for so many years and chatting with the wealthy elites, she had honed her ability to read people.
Thus, Harper Wood effortlessly saw through Aurora's thoughts.
Then, Harper Wood took action and started to save herself.
Looking at her own body and Riley's hands, she shivered, recalling the gloomy days when they were trapped in the basement.
Just like Riley, she didn't want to go back into the basement again.
"Aurora..." Harper Wood suddenly spoke, "Please, spare us, mother and daughter!"
Aurora didn't expect Harper Wood to interrupt. She turned her head to look at her.
"Aunt Wood," Aurora said, "Out of respect for you as an elder, I call you Aunt."
"In that case, Aurora, I ask you in consideration of the past, spare us both! Riley and I are left with nothing!"
