Her soft whispers caused a jolt to go through Tanya.
For how many days and nights had those words appeared in her dreams…
Tanya's eyes widened and she looked down at Mia. Just as she was about to take a closer look at her face, Hillary stepped forward in a panic. She took Mia's hand and said, "Mommy's here, Mia. Here, let Mommy carry you…"
Tanya froze again, feeling as though her heart had been pricked by something.
What was she thinking? Mia's mother was Hillary. She didn't have anything to do with her.
Yet, because Mia had fainted, in her daze, she seemed to be convinced that Tanya was her mother. Her little hands clutched the corners of her clothes tightly and refused to let go, seemingly afraid that she would leave.
A piercing look appeared in Hillary's eyes at the sight. She immediately broke into a frown and forcefully unfurled the girl's fingers straightaway. This made Tanya's heart ache, and she couldn't help but grab her wrist.
