I thought she had long forgotten him, but now it seemed that she had always been loving him.
Now he just came back and showed up there, and Mia couldn't wait to get rid of my children to make room for his.
I restrained my anger and bitterness with all my strength.
"Why?"

I didn't have much time left, my bloodline would also be cut off.
When I learned about my illness, the first thing I thought about was how she was to support herself alone.
