Chapter 629: Do You Want to Live?

"I heard you checked on me after I died!"

Abigail's words were nothing short of cruel.

Clara Smith's chest heaved on the recliner, her pale, frail body beginning to tremble from Abigail's words.

She never thought that one day a girl claiming to be her daughter would say such words to her.

All these years, the death of her lover and abandoning her infant had been irreparable wounds for Clara. Even though she later married Gary Richardson out of gratitude and raised Gavin Richardson, Abigail was always a forbidden touch for her.

It wasn't that she didn't want to go back or didn't want to acknowledge Abigail; she just couldn't do it.

Just seeing her daughter's face would remind her of that blood-soaked night, her vision filled with red blood, and Hayden Bell's lifeless body beside her.

These years felt like an unending nightmare, tormenting her night after night.
