Chapter-78 Fate gave her another father

He smeared his dirty palm on his pants before touching her face.

He tapped her scratched cheek carefully to wake her up. She didn't open her eyes.

He realized she had fainted. So he stood up from his kneeling position, lifted her out of the pot, and leaned on the mud floor.

He rushed out of the chamber and came with the water.

He splashed on her fainted face.

She uttered this as she shook her scratched cheek gradually and opened her eyelashes.

The first thing noticed by her tired eyes was the tiled roof, which was straight up at her face.

Then she tried to sit up by putting her elbow on the mud floor and straightening her upper body.

She crawled back with frightened heartbeats as soon as she noticed the man, who was brooding at her with a merciful gaze. She panted as her back shoulder touched the mud wall of the chamber.

She raised her knees together and held them with two hands to avoid eye contact with him.
