Suddenly, Calista couldn't help but regret it and hated the mother she had never met and latched the foster mother who knew the truth but kept it away from her for sixteen good years.
The old slave sensed the fury from Calista and shuddered with fear. She saw the snake flickering its tongue and those eyes looking at her in a manner she didn't like. But she didn't dare utter a single word.
Judging from Calista's expression, and the anguish in her eyes, the old slave finally believed that the child's ghost was who she was talking to right now. A stranger wouldn't have such strong emotions for someone else.
Thinking like that, the old slave felt very guilty and helpless. However, she couldn't stop now that she knew who the other person was. She could only continue and hope that the truth would save her and on the account that they were once foster mother and daughter, she would let her live like she promised earlier.
