Chapter 140: Bloodthirsty Wolf
Third Person.
"You are a good girl, believe me." Wanda peered into Xamira’s green eyes. "You kept your lips sealed. And honestly, I didn’t think you would do that for me even though I had asked."
Then she grasped Xamira’s finger. And almost immediately, the little girl trembled under her touch.
Wanda’s palms were cold yet, she had used them to touch a child whose body temperature was out of the question.
"Sorry..." Wanda withdrew her hands. "You’ve won my trust now. I will protect you. I promise."
Then, Wanda went on to tell Xamira she couldn’t visit her all this time or save her because her father had banned everyone from visiting her. And that she had to sneak into her room now after she saw her nanny leave.
Still, there wasn’t any reaction from Xamira. And it didn’t stop Wanda from continuing to achieve her aim with this sneaky visit.
For the third time, Wanda squeezed the cool water out of the towel and placed it on Xamira’s forehead.
"I must leave before your nanny returns. And remember, you can’t tell anyone about my visit. Your dad won’t let me spend time with you anymore if he finds out."
Wanda gave the little girl the impression that she missed her so much and was sorry for her situation, and made an effort to visit despite her father’s strict rule.
Now on her feet, Wanda readjusted the duvet on Xamira, pulling it up to her chest before straightening her back.
