CHAPTER 45 Once Again

  Solaine's POV

  "Absolutely. You will finally find solace, liberated from the torment inflicted by your sister. I can't bear the thought of you leaving, but it would be detrimental for you and your precious baby to remain in this toxic environment-"

  "I'm sorry, but it's just not within my capabilities. I can't do that for now," I abruptly interrupted him, my voice faltering with uncertainty. As I ran my fingers through my hair, his eyebrows shot up in surprise.

  "What on earth are you blabbering about? Is this exactly what you desire, isn't it? To ensure the utmost safety of your precious child..." I reached out and felt the warmth of his hand beneath my fingertips.

  "Thank you for that," I whispered, my voice barely audible as it slipped through my lips like a delicate breath of gratitude.

  "You have gone above and beyond, tirelessly pouring your heart and soul into countless acts of kindness for me," I added.
