I wiped my face and spat out another mouthful of blood, only to discover that the black thing could move.

There were no words in the world to describe the fear I felt.

“Miss, are you in your room?” Banxia’s voice came from outside.

Without thinking, I reached out and pressed the flush button.

The thing struggled desperately in the water before it was siphoned away.

I couldn’t hold on any longer and crawl to my bed before collapsing.

I had never slept so soundly before. I felt like a feather. I had never felt so relaxed.

When I woke up, I felt refreshed. The heavy and repressed emotions had disappeared.

“Miss, you’re awake!” Banxia was so surprised that she was about to cry.

I looked at Banxia and suddenly realized that my vision seemed to have cleared.

Daisy jogged in excitedly. “Miss, my good miss, you almost scared me to death!” Then she turned around and instructed the maid, “Quick! Go tell Vincent and Lu Heng that Miss is awake. Tell them to stop making trouble!”

She turned around and wiped her tears, “Miss, you’ve been unconscious for a day and a night. You scared us to death. Banxia said that it was because of the chocolate. We thought you had food poisoning! Vincent was so furious that he brought Lu Heng to ask an explanation from Jing Tian! We need to know why he wanted to harm our Miss.”

I looked at them. “I’m so touched.” I said softly.

Daisy felt a little embarrassed.

Banxia scared my hand, and tears streamed down her cheeks. “Miss, you scared us to death.”

I wanted to pat her hand to comfort her, but only then did I realize that there was an IV in my hand.

I looked up at the bottle and asked Daisy, “What medicine is this?”

My heart trembled.

Daisy quickly said, “It’s normal glucose. The doctor said that Miss was too tired and severely malnourished. It was why you fainted.” She wiped the corners of her eyes and complained, “But how can you be malnourished? We’ve been feeding Miss so much food. Mr. Tong Hui also said that he had been treating you well…”

Banxia only held onto my hand and wept. She didn’t say anything. Banxia always had an opinion, especially when it involved criticism about my uncle, Tong Hui. So why wasn’t she saying anything? This was strange.

I looked at Daisy. “I’m hungry. I want to eat porridge.”

Daisy was stopped mid-sentence. Then, she quickly nodded. “Okay. Porridge! We’ll cook the most nutritious porridge for Miss! Guards! Guards! Get the kitchen to prepare a bowl of porridge for Miss! Add more sugar and make it sweet.” She turned around to get my approval.

I smiled and gave her an okay sign.

I was hungry. I placed my hand on my stomach. The pain had full disappeared.

I tried my best to ignore the black worm in my memory. Ma Ji, I will remember this. The allergies, amnesia, malnutrition, internet addiction, those are all lies!

In order to control me, in order to extend Tong Hui’s life, Ma Ji did everything she could. I was their living blood vessel! She used my body to raise some kind of voodoo parasites!

They said they treated me like I was their daughter. They sure knew how to lie! The lies stacked on top of one another!

I closed my eyes and thought about the explosion that day.

Would they die so easily? Who was coming after us that day? Was it my cousin, Tong Zhuo, whom I had never met?

Was he really my enemy like Tong Hui and Ma Ji told me?

I couldn’t trust anyone!

The most important thing now was for me to recover my health despite the heavy supervision. I needed to heal so that I wouldn’t be controlled anymore!
