Catching up (III)

Squinting her eyes at the paper in her hand while trying to sit up, Song Jujing's eyes widened in shock in familiarity.

Zhang Liling watched her mother closely and saw her change in facial expression and her heart felt bitter.

"So this is true?" She questioned in disbelief.

It was as if she would have believed her if she had said that the letter in her hand was fake.

But seeing her change in expression, and her not trying to make any effort to deny it, answered her question.

Realizing that the truth had come out, Song Jujing didn't try to deny the contents of that letter. It was too late.

Gazing into her daughter's eyes made her see the emotions she didn't ever want to see.

Not wanting her to hate her because of the choice she made, she hurriedly got to her feet and tried to explain.
