Upon hearing this, the others had no choice but to leave the operating room, leaving the three of us behind.

"Felicia, | must tell you something. Actually, you are not my biological daughter," her mother said weakly.

That one sentence stunned both Felicia and me, especially Felicia, who had been crying non-stop. She widened

her eyes in shock, looking terrified.

"Mom, what are you talking about?"

"Listen to me. | originally planned to wait until you were in your 30s and had a family and career before telling

you. But there's no tnow. No one will ever know this secret if | don't say it."

Mrs. Cylon was weak, but her eyes shone strangely.

"Your mother was a very beautiful and elegant young lady. She loved you very much, but her family rejected

your birth. They tried every possible way to harm your life. Your mother was forced to escape from the family

and hide in my home.

"| cared for her for a while until she gave birth to you and named you Felicia Cylon. To cover up your origins, she

took my husband's last name. Then, she stuffed a pillow under her clothes and pretended to be pregnant for

nine months.

"She then exposed herself to her family and set herself on fire. | couldn't save her.

| could only raise you with my husband. That is your true identity."

| was utterly stunned. | never expected that Felicia would have such a tic backstory. Her family had spent

an entire year trying to kill her. Why? And it sounded as if her mother's family was a large family. But were there

such ruthless families in this country?

| had never heard of a woman setting herself on fire for an illegitimate child. If this were true, such gossip would

have been widely spread by now.

As | puzzled, Felicia had already collapsed to the ground in pain and despair. "Mom, why are you tellingthis? |

don't want to know this. | only know that | only have one mom in this life, and that's you."

"No!" Mrs. Cylon cried as she held Felicia's hand.

"Felicia, your mother was a great mother. She gave her life to give birth to you. Even though she didn't raise you,

you should not deny her. She was your real mother.

"I can only say that | am your adoptive mother. Still, you must not look for her. Those people from her family will

never let you go. Just grow up safely and peacefully."

Felicia shook her head forcefully. "Since you don't wantto look for her, why are you tellingall this? | don't

want to know anything about it."

"Felicia, don't forget your real mother. Her death anniversary is the tenth day of the tenth month..."

Mrs. Cylon's pupils suddenly began to unfocus. Realizing something was terribly wrong, | quickly stepped forward

and grasped Mrs. Cylon's hand.

"Mrs. Cylon, don't worry. | will take good care of Felicia. | will never let anyone bully her or abandon her. I will

take care of her for the rest of her life. Mrs. Cylon, you can fest in peace."

It seemed that Mrs. Cylon heard my words. Her fingers moved slightly as she turned to look at me. There was

even a faint smile on her face. Then, her head tilted, and she departed this world.

"Mrs. Cylon..."

"Mom! Mom!"
