Kapitel 182: Blue Hyacinths (6)

*Flashback*

The girl is standing outside the ICU, waiting for any news. Several people are staring at her bloodied state and whispering at her but her dead eyes are staring at the door. She did not flinch nor move from there for hours, making people worry about her.

But no one is daring to approach her. They have been warned not to. The Cho's are powerful and she is going to be in for a lot of trouble when they arrive.

"Isn't she a servant girl at the Cho mansion?" one nurse whispers behind her. Servant, huh? Is that what I am? She wonders vaguely.

"I think that she gave birth to an illegitimate daughter!" Another nurse claims. "And they're covering it up."

"Poor girl. To have irked the Cho's! What is she thinking?"

She can hear their whispers. This...this is her fate. She made a choice once and now, it is punishing her daughter.
