Yara, Franklin, and Sophia continued running around the hospital building.

The children used all their might to escape from the woman, but their bodies seemed to be reaching their

limits after running for some time.

“I think that woman is still chasing after us.” Sophia could barely catch her breath as she continued to

run. Her pace had evidently slowed. “F-Franklin... What do we do? I really... can't run anymore.”

“Just hold on a little while longer, Sophia.”

The boy encouraged his sister, but he was reaching his limit as well.

That woman is going to catch up to us sooner or later if this continues.

An emergency exit caught his eyes. He quickly pushed the door open and dragged the girl into the dim

passageway.

“This way, Sophia.”

“Franklin?”

“Shh. Stay here. We can't make a sound, all right? Otherwise, she's going to find us.”

“Okay.”

The boy was panting heavily, and Yara wasn't doing any better. She had almost sprained her ankle while

trying to catch up to them.

Seeing that the children had made their way into the emergency exit, she didn't hesitate to follow.

However, she realized that they were nowhere to be seen when she was inside.

“What are you running for, Franklin and Sophia? I am your biological mother. I gave birth to you, so do

you think I'd harm you?”

It was completely silent in the passageway aside from Yara's questioning voice.

She continued to mumble to herself, “Let me tell you, it doesn't matter how much you dislike me. There's

no denying that you're blood-related to me. The more you rebel against me, the more it shows how

unfilial and ungrateful you are. It means that that woman has failed in teaching you guys!”

Hearing that, Sophia nearly opened her mouth to retort.

Fortunately, Franklin reacted quickly enough and clasped a hand over her mouth, stopping her from

making any noise that would expose their hiding spot.

Yara continued to pace around the area. She finally convinced herself that she was seeing things when

she wasn't able to hear anything after some time.

I'm really going crazy because of them!

Who said they were bargaining chips to be a part of the Bowers family? They're more like liabilities who

only know how to torment me!

Ugh, just how unlucky can I get to have wasted so much time on them?

At that, she pushed open the door to the emergency exit and left in a huff.

After a long while, there was no noise or movement from the passageway.

When Franklin and Sophia were sure that Yara wouldn't return anymore, they finally removed the lid from

the rubbish bin they were hiding in.

It was all thanks to the rubbish bin that the woman was unable to find them.

Luckily, it had been cleared out and was quite spacious. They fit perfectly inside the bin, and Yara was

unable to notice them.

“Do you think that woman is really our mom, Franklin?” Tears welled up in the girl's eyes as she asked.

Soon, fat droplets of tears fell from her face. “I really hate her so much! When can we escape from her?”

Franklin felt the same.

But seeing that his sister was crying so pitifully, he took up the responsibility of being her older brother

and consoled her while taking her in his arms.

“Don't cry, Sophia. God may have closed a door for us, but he also opened up a window for us. That evil

woman is always thinking of ways to use us, but at least we have Natalie. I'll work hard and learn about

business and finance from Daddy. That way, that woman can't ever exploit us anymore.”

Upon hearing her brother's words, Sophia rubbed her eyes and a smile broke across her face. Nodding,

she said, “I'll work hard too, Franklin. I'm going to learn medicine from Mommy so I can protect our

family.”

With that, the seeds of their dreams were planted in their hearts.

When Yara met up with Kenneth again, not only was the old man not angry, but he also smiled at her.

“I've kept you waiting, haven't I, Grandpa? Did something good happen to you while I was gone? You

look like you're in a great mood,” she couldn't stop herself from asking.
