SWNOVELS Chapter 13 Depends on You!
The days are back to the past.
However, because Adam ordered that Ceres could go out at least once a week, Ceres felt that she finally had hope, because she purchased many ingredients, and she could do more things.
On that day, when Ceres was preparing to bake bread, Adam suddenly came into the kitchen.
"Mrs. Winsor, your mother has come to see you."
Ceres still paused. It was her mother, Sally Nadine.
Sally was sitting gracefully on the sofa, sipping tea. She was in her forties, but she looked like she was still in her thirties, with elegant temperament and beauty.
"Mom," Ceres called and sat on the sofa.
Sally smiled at Ceres. "Let me take a good look at you. Mom misses you so much."
This sentence made Ceres feel warm.
Just one month after she was born, Sally left her and her father and married Mike for no reason. Before Ceres was twelve years old, her mother never showed herself.
Later, when she went to the Morris's, Sally never gave her the warmth that a mother should give her. Instead, in order to please the Morrises, Sally asked her to act as a servant in their home. This was the first time that Ceres heard her mother say "I miss you".
"Dear Mary, are you doing well here?"
Hearing this "Mary", Ceres froze. She knew that her mother didn't really miss her. It was a play.
"It is quite good."
"Mary, I have not seen you for many days. Can I go to your room and talk to you?" Sally asked.
Ceres looked up at Adam, and he nodded towards her.
So, Ceres came to her room with Sally. As soon as she entered the door, when Ceres was just about to say something, Sally's face instantly became ferocious.
"You restless thing!" Sally said, and she also raised her hand hard to slap her.
Fortunately, Ceres reacted quickly and suddenly dodged her slap with her hind legs.
"Why did you hit me?"
"You seduce men here! And you even went out to make a fool of yourself! Do you know that if this matter is known by the Winsors, our whole family will have to endure it?" Although Sally was extremely angry, she had to lower her voice. After all, they were in the Winsors' territory.
Ceres understood what her mother said. Mary went home to gossip about her and the bodyguard and Mike sent Sally to warn her.
Ceres sneered. "It's your family."
The Morris was never her family."
"Your current identity is Mary, and you represent the Morrises! Ceres, you must remember why you want to marry here!"
This sentence suddenly reminded her.
Yes, why did she marry Johny in the first place? Which little girl was willing to marry a living dead?
She did it for her father.
At the age of twelve, her father suddenly went to prison for murder and was sentenced to life imprisonment. He was still in prison.
She always felt that her father was wronged. If Mike had not promised her to help her father rehabilitate within one year, she would never marry instead of Mary.
Sally knew that her father was her weakness. When she saw Ceres's slightly melancholic eyes, she knew that what she said had played a role.
"Be careful here, do not let anyone catch you, or your father will never come out in his life!"
At night, when everything was silent, Ceres sat on the balcony drinking wine, which she took from the wine cabinet, the rooster made a "giggle" sound from time to time beside her. A black figure appeared behind her.
Ceres looked up and met a man, "Come, drink with me!"
The masked man was puzzled when he saw Ceres. "Is your mother here today?"
"Don't let me talk about her, she is not my mother!"
