After everything she did to change the ending of the novel, would her mom still die due to Vanessa?
Amelia wasn't contemplating on Vanessa's words although she pretended to do so. There was no trusting in Vanessa's words.
Even if she gave up her life like Vanessa wanted her to, there was no way of being assured that Evelyn will be safely returned to her home.
She would be foolish to follow Vanessa's words.
While trying to think of a way out of this, she tried to buy as much time as possible.
At the same time, little Eve tried to move around, attempting to get the ropes loose. They were fitted quite tightly around her hands.
Evelyn noticed how Vanessa had her concentration on Amelia, and this was the best time for her to take action. Vanessa wasn't at all at guard against her.
Little Eve's eyes met with Amelia's then. She noticed the solemn look in little Eve's eyes, and the next second, Evelyn raised her body up quickly.
