Chapter 4 Four years later… A fine-dressed man lunged at Adina and pinned her underneath him.

He ripped her clothes off and touched every inch of her skin, but she did not have the strength to push him away.

She tried to see his face, but it was hidden in fog and appeared blurry.

She could only see a pair of eyes.

The man’s gaze was as sharp as a hawk’s, and even if they were doing something only couples should do, there were no emotions in his eyes.

It frightened her.

Suddenly, her heart skipped a beat, and she opened her eyes.

"Mommy, did you have a nightmare?"

a soft voice asked from right next to her.

It was only at that moment that Adina realized that she had fallen asleep in an airplane and dreamt about the night of her coming-of-age ceremony.

Five years had passed since she was set up by Dew Daugherty back then.

It was something from a long time ago that she had put behind her, so why did she dream of it? When Adina met her son’s clear eyes, she felt a little embarrassed.

"I’m fine.

The long flight has just tired me out."

Alden handed her a warm cup of water.

"Mommy, you’ll feel better once you drink it."

Then, he put a soft cushion behind her back.

"You’ll also feel better if you’re comfortable."

Adina’s heart melted away at his care, and she kissed his cheek.

"Alden, the two of you are my greatest blessing in life."

She then glanced at the girl sleeping quietly at her side, and a satisfied smile bloomed on her face.

Four years ago, she had risked tooth and nail to escape the fire, and in the end, she managed to do it.
