A week later, Edith resigned from the police force.

There is no way, the transparent area of ​​her body is getting bigger and bigger, and the degree is getting more and more obvious.If you don't resign, you will definitely reveal your secrets.After resigning, she returned home to take care of her two daughters wholeheartedly.The reason given to the family is that they are tired of the police career.

In order to prevent Lily from seeing the clue, she put on thick clothes, a scarf and gloves to cover up the translucent place.

Lily was delighted with Edith's decision to resign.Because of this, she can see her mother every day when she comes home.After school, she offered to help her mother cook, wash dishes, and bake some of Edith's favorite snacks from time to time.In my spare time, I took Edith to go shopping together.

She didn't know that her mother would be leaving her soon, and neither Edith nor Victoria had told her.Edith tried her best not to think about the future separation, nor to care about the increasingly transparent body, with a sweet smile every day.She only hoped that in her last days, all that was left to Lily were happy memories.

Edith's attitude towards Victoria remained the same, as if the confession that day had never existed.To be fair, although Edith had a preference for Lily, she didn't treat Victoria very differently from Lily, who she had raised since she was three.The painstaking effort involved is no less than that of a biological mother.

But since that confession, Victoria's mood has obviously changed.At the very least, she can no longer treat Edith as she treats her mother.

Seeing Edith laughing and laughing with Lily every day without changing his face, as if he had forgotten the upcoming parting, she only felt that something was about to burst out of her heart.That kind of bitterness, that kind of soreness, I really don't know how to describe it.

In order to relieve the depression in her heart, she simply plunged into her studies.During that time, except for eating and bathing after school, she basically spent in the study.Both Lucas and Annabel were worried that she would be exhausted. Edith, who usually cared about her the most, didn't intervene. He just boiled a bowl of soup for her every night and sent it to her room.

Lily is a smart girl with a delicate heart that girls generally have.She and her mother Edith have always been close, and she and her sister grew up together, so their abnormalities can't be hidden from her eyes.She was a little dazed, a little confused.Especially when her elder sister occasionally looked at her with unconcealable jealousy in her eyes, she was even more puzzled.

With full of suspicion, but don't know where to ask.Gradually, she began to quietly observe her mother and sister involuntarily.The more she observed, the more surprised she became.Victoria looked at Edith with a clearly sad, dreamy look in her eyes.Edith, while still hugging and caressing Victoria, always avoided her eyes.

Although Lily is young, she already has a boyfriend.In addition, her relationship with Angela and others has always been very good, and the love between women can also be viewed from a normal perspective.In this way, it is not difficult for her to guess the truth.

Of course, she didn't guess that Edith was about to leave.

She didn't know how to look at such a thing.But she knew that she couldn't bear to see her sister and mother so sad.In order to melt the ice between them, she had to do something.

However, before she could make a difference, something unexpected happened.

On the weekend afternoon, Angela invited Victoria to drink coffee.

Although Angela was willing to give Tina another chance, she still couldn't completely forgive Tina's "future" change in her heart, but she couldn't let her go completely.If you are in love, you will naturally resort to the outside, otherwise it will be like a stone is pressed in your heart.

Victoria is undoubtedly a good confidant.To be precise, they talk to each other.

"Angela," Victoria said softly while holding the coffee, "If you still love Tina, don't miss her. Because it's really hard to fall in love with someone who loves you." Anyway, One thing Victoria believed was that Tina was absolutely in love with Angela.Otherwise, she would not be able to protect her with her life again and again.

"Victoria, do you know that I really envy you." Angela said, "In this world, only a mother's love for her daughter can never be replaced by anyone else. No matter how beautiful that person is, how No matter how good she is, she can't replace it." Edith may not be able to accept Victoria's love for a while, but her love for Victoria will never be diminished by half.Because, Victoria is the daughter she raised.

"Winter vacation is three days away, have you figured out where to go?" Angela said, "If you don't have a plan, I have an idea."

"What idea?" Victoria asked interestedly.

"I won't tell Tina, and you won't tell Edith either." Angela said, "Just the two of us, take my private cruise ship and visit a small island in South America. Don't worry, that small island It is my family's property and will never be haunted again."

"Being apart for a while can not only calm us down, but also make them think clearly." Angela took a sip of coffee, "Maybe after a short separation, Edith will suddenly realize that she doesn't care about you." Isn't it just mother-daughter love?" Although, the probability seems to be very small.

Victoria was silent for a long time.

When the coffee was half finished, she finally spoke: "I think your idea is very good, and I really want to relax. Go to a place where no one knows me."

Although it was agreed not to inform Edith, Victoria still left a letter for everyone in the family so that they would not worry.Among them, of course, was Edith.

In the letter to Edith, Victoria confessed her changing mood during this time.Tell her affection and attachment vividly.

Edith must admit that when she read the letter, she was shocked and moved.Although she had had children before, it was not a happy memory.She vaguely remembered that the man had lied to her feelings and concealed the fact that he had a family.After being found out by her family, she abandoned her pregnancy and put her in a mental hospital, not even caring about her children.

It is precisely because of that experience that after turning into a ghost, Edith does not have any yearning for so-called love, but just wants to be a good mother.

But now, seeing the pure affection revealed between the lines of Victoria, she was moved.

Naturally, her changes cannot escape Lily, who has been watching her all the time.

"Mother."

"Lily?" Edith looked outside the door, "It's so late, why are you still awake?"

"Isn't Mom still asleep?" Lily walked to Edith's side and sat down. "Mom, do you know that you and Victoria are people I love, and I hope you both can be happy."

Edith was taken aback, and after a while, she said, "You know everything?"

"Lily has already seen it," Lily said, "I really want to help you, but I don't know how to do it."

Edith bit her lip.

"Mommy," Lily said, opening her arms and hugging Edith tightly, "I hope everyone is happy. Lily, Mommy, and Victoria are all happy together."

Edith put his arms around Lily and kissed her forehead: "Lily, thank you."

On the cruise ship, Victoria and Angela fell into an unprecedented crisis.

The servants on the cruise ship were bribed at some point, and now they are reduced to prisoners.To make matters worse, Angela still couldn't figure out their purpose.

If it's to extort money, that's fine.But if they had a personal enmity with their own family and wanted revenge, the chances of themselves and Victoria surviving were very small.

Angela and Victoria don't know how long they were locked up.During that time, they couldn't see the sunlight outside, and there were no clocks or clocks in the room, and no one brought them food and water.

Angela thought she was going to die.

Everything about herself and Tina appeared in front of her eyes like a revolving lantern.Whether it's doubts or suspicions, the so-called pain doesn't seem to be that important.Angela only knew how much she wanted to see her again.

"Angela, Angela..." In a daze, Angela heard someone calling her.Soon, another cool feeling flowed into the mouth, with a bit of sweetness.

Angela instinctively opened her mouth and drank hard.

After a long time, she finally opened her eyes.

"Angela, you finally woke up!" Tina cried with joy.

"Tina?" Angela caressed Tina's face tremblingly, "I'm not dreaming, am I?"

"No, this is not a dream." Tina held Angela's hand, "Angela, here I come."

At the other end of the room, Edith also fed Victoria a drink of glucose.Since Victoria is younger, she is now weaker than Angela.

Edith fondled Victoria's face with mixed feelings.

"Edith, Tina, why are you here?" Angela sat up vigorously, "What's going on at home?"

It turned out that it was Angela's father's rival in the business and a big family who had bought the servants on board and murdered them.They locked Angela up just to threaten Angela's father.As for Victoria, it was entirely incidental.

Angela's father was overwhelmed by this, but someone from the other party (he didn't know who it was) was inserted into his side, so he didn't dare to call the police rashly.He was afraid that the other party would jump over the wall in a hurry and hurt Angela.But he didn't expect that the other party didn't intend to let Angela go back alive, otherwise they wouldn't bring a sip of water or a meal.

On the island before, Tina had already seen how extraordinary Edith was.When unable to ask the police for help, Tina came to find Edith.

Although Edith has become much weaker, his ability to fly is still there.In addition, she can hide in the ground and hide in the wall, so it is not difficult to sneak into the enemy's interior to find out the news.

It took several days before she finally found the location of the boat that held Victoria and Angela captive and came to their rescue.Tina insisted on following, so she brought her along.
