Chapter 390

Under Marina’s anxious gaze, the lady removed Marina’s oxygen mask.

“Just what do you want?” asked Marina weakly. Her question was free from her usual supercilious tone.

“What do I want?” The lady chuckled softly. Her face was no less different from what Marina

remembered.

Time, which could be relentless, chose to be kind to this lady whose face was free from

wrinkles.

The lady was gentle and warm in the past. She had always looked at Marina with a warm gaze, giving Marina a wholeschildhood.

Hence, Marina treasured this lady the most in her life. This lady was her mother, and no one could replace her.

However, everything changed after the car accident happened.

Looking at that lady’s face, Marina knew how cruel this lady was and realized how foolish she

had been.

Tears ran down Marina’s cheeks. Her voice was hoarse. “Don’t you love Dad? Why did you stage your death and plot all of this?”

“Love?” Helen Gibson grinned like a madwoman. Like a loving mother, she caressed Marina’s

face.

Yet, Marina was shaking.

There was so much that she had faced within a day, and they ultimately toppled her impression of Helen.

Helen wasn’t an angel; she was a calculating devil.

“Are you this afraid of me? If my memories serveright, you clung toa lot when you

were young. You kept wanting to sleep withevery night. Darling, have you forgotten about me, your mother?”

The mention of the word “mother” made Marina’s skin crawl. She began crying buckets as those tears soaked the blanket.

She had lost count of how many times she had cried. Her eyes were red.

Her physical pain was pale in comparison to the wounds etched within her heart.

“I called

you ‘Mom’ for so many years. Even if I’m not your biological daughter, you’ve taken care offor so long.

“I missed you so much all these years, and I never accepted her. I even caused her miscarriage and made her barren to avenge you. How could you treatlike this? How could you!”

Marina couldn’t understand how the once gentle lady turned this way.

Helen smiled. “Silly you. I don’t hold any grudges against you. Your father’s the one who owes me. Do you know how long I’ve been waiting for this day to come?”

When she talked about that, her expression was tinged with madness.

It scared Marina so much as she felt that something was wrong with Helen, especially Helen’s face.

Marina found it odd that Helen looked the sas she was when she “passed away” over a decade ago. There were no wrinkles on her face!

“I’m just curious how he would react after learning the truth. Would he regret givingthe bad treatment?” Helen put the oxygen mask back on Marina’s face before wiping off Marina’s

tears.

“Don’t worry. Considering that I’ve taken care of you for so long, I’ll spare your life. Now, it’s his turn.” Helen wiped the tears off her finger with a tissue.

She casually threw it away into the trash can as if it was filthy.

Marina watched Helen leave, feeling the urge to stop her.

Marina thought while crying, “Dad, don’t come. What’s waiting ahead of you is only an abyss.”

Only then did she regret whatever she had done to Chloe.

Chloe didn’t know about Marina’s identity, but she treated Marina with all her heart.

She had always been on Marina’s side, but Marina didn’t appreciate it.

The moment Marina shut her eyes, she could remember how she poured vegetable oil over the stairs that caused Chloe to suffer from a miscarriage due to a fall.

When Chloe was discharged from the hospital, the young Marina looked at her guiltily.

To Marina’s surprise, the weak Chloe stroked her head. “It’s alright that I’ve lost my child. I’ll treat you better in the future.”

Chloe was clearly aware that it was Marina’s doing, yet she didn’t tell anyone about it.

She lost her baby and almost lost her life! But she merely took it as a prank by the young

Chapter 390

Marina.

From that day onward, Chloe also treated Marina better.

Chloe assumed that Marina was simply afraid that the baby would shake up her position within the family. That was why Chloe treated Marina with care.

Yet, what did Marina do?

3/3

Marina didn’t treat Chloe well, not even a day. Hurtful words were the only thing she hurled at

Chloe.

On the other hand, Chloe didn’t take it to heart and did everything in her power to give Marina

the maternal love she needed.

If Marina could move herself at the moment, she would’ve slapped herself in the face a few

times.

Marina’s bone marrow was compatible with Chloe’s, but she didn’t choose to save Chloe

because she wanted to survive.

Under the urge from the devil, Marina even drove Chloe to death.

Whenever she recalled how Chloe bled, the weight of regret suffocated Marina.

“Mom, I’m sorry!” she said aloud in her head.
