Tu Ya bit her lip and stomped her foot forcefully, as if to complain about Bazak's indifference. She had long been accustomed to Bazak's caring inquiries but this was the first time she was treated so coldly.
The female chief, Tuoya, turned her head to look at Tu Ya, her brows slightly furrowed. A thought uncontrollably surfaced.
She remembered that aside from Tu Ya, she had several other daughters. One of them was intended to be her successor and was raised by her side since childhood. That daughter was also intelligent enough, but in the end...
Tuoya closed her eyes in pain.
She remembered that it was with her own hands that she had personally killed that child...
If that child were still alive, she would surely have outshone Tu Ya, right? She would not be like Tu Ya, so foolish.
Unfortunately, once dead, they are gone, and even regrets are now useless...
