Chapter 301
"These children were able to change their personalities according to their surroundings. They’re like chameleons, and the decisions they make vary." Mrs. Coleman was giving me a reminder.
She was telling me how scary the pair of children could become.
"If I were you, Sophia, I wouldn’t bring a subject from a lab back home in such a casual manner."
Looking at me, she said again, "Never underestimate anyone from the organization. If you were able to take people with you, you must’ve been intentionally allowed to do so."
I frowned and shot her a cautious glance. Were the members of the organization divided as well?
She wore a face of contempt while talking about Nancy. She didn’t agree with another scientist’s theories, and she even reminded me that someone might be intentionally keeping the kids around me.
"They’re my and Dexter’s children. I won’t give them up," I declared solemnly.
"Only your biological children can be called your own. You won’t understand the feeling of carrying a child. During that time, the mother is one with the baby. The baby is a part of your body. It also shares your organs, oxygen, and nutrition."
Mrs. Coleman leaned against the couch before continuing, "You’re only able to realize the importance of life through your own pregnancy. Even after childbirth, when your child becomes an individual of their own, you’d still think they should be a part of you."
"You need to protect them, love them, and plan their future for them. You need to be united with them. At the very least, a child from my womb must not become an obstacle that’s keeping me from succeeding."
I looked at her before casting a glance toward Damien’s room. "So, you think Damien has now become an obstacle. He won’t agree with your ideals."
