Chapter 92
That night, Felicia was in a tight spot too.
She was about to leave despite hearing Roberta's desperate pleas. However, Felicia eventually gritted her teeth,
turned around, and rescued Roberta nonetheless.
Roberta wiped a tear off the corner of her eye. "Aunt Felicia, there are two things | regret the most in my life.
One was when | left you behind and fled alone back then. The second was returning to the Walsh family." Felicia's
eyes were unreadable as she listened silently. She merely called out Roberta's name.
Roberta."
"Yes, Aunt Felicia."
Felicia wanted to point out that Roberta was planning to betray her again even after saying all
this.

However, she decided to hold back on that thought. Instead, she asked, "Do you know why | turned back to save
you back then?"
"No." Roberta shook her head. She thought pensively for a bit and added, "Was it because you thought | was
pitiful?"
"No," Felicia replied flatly. It's because | can see a lot of my old self in your gaze back then.
The old self she meant was the old Felicia, the one from her previous life.
In her past life, Felicia went through great despair and mental breakdowns several times after she was thrown
into prison.
She could have lived a happy, fulfilling life. Yet, she was oppressed by those in power, despised. and slandered
by her family, and abandoned by the world!
She never tried to harm or injure anyone. However, Felicia ended up having an arm, an eye, and a leg
permanently impaired. In the end, she even lost her life. That night, Felicia saw a shadow of her old self when
she met Roberta's eyes, which reflected her despair.
That was why Felicia decided to help Roberta even though she knew it was dangerous.
The thought she had on her mind back then was to save Roberta. By doing so, she felt like she was saving her
old self too.
Roberta paused briefly after hearing that. Then, she picked up her glass of orange juice.
"Aunt Felicia, I'd like to apologize to you once more. I'm really sorry for leaving you behind at the time... I'll make
it up to you with this orange juice." Meeting Roberta's docile and expectant gaze, Felicia raised her glass.
She could smell the rich scent of fruits. If her drink had not been laced with poison, Felicia might have found
Roberta's sharing a bit more sincere. Regrettably, Roberta had said all those things only to get Felicia to drink
the spiked juice.
Felicia remained still. She asked jokingly, "Roberta, your glass of juice doesn't look as good as mine. Do you want
to swap your drink with mine?" That was the last chance Felicia was giving her. She wondered if Roberta would
choose to stop. or proceed with her plan.
Roberta paused, but she had no intention of stopping. Instead, she raised her glass and smiled. "Here's a toast to
you, Aunt Felicia."

Then, Roberta downed the glass of orange juice in just a few gulps.
Felicia concluded that Roberta was beyond saving
She shook her head and poured her up to
Conto the ground. Without a word, Felicia por leave.
Just then, she heard the sound of something plopping onto the ground coming from behind her.
Felicia furrowed her brows and turned around. "What is it now?"
She found Roberta had dropped listlessly onto the ground. Blood cout of her eyes, ears, mouth, and nose.
Felicia was in a state of shock. She could not understand what was happening.
Coincidentally, a puppy was licking the puddle of orange juice, which formed on the ground when Felicia poured
away her drink.
Even after it had licked up most of the orange juice, the puppy was still up and running. There was no sign of it
being poisoned.
That meant, since the beginning, Felicia's glass of orange juice did not contain any poison. The drink laced with
poison was in Roberta's glass!
