Jamie turned pale with fright when she heard Sally.
"What did you say? Is Ceres in the manor? Why is she here? What did you tell her? Did she know something?"
Jamie pressed hard and asked a series of quick questions.
Sally stepped back until she sat down on the bed.
"Jamie, calm down first!"
Jamie wanted to shout. But thinking that the wall had ears, she lowered her voice.
"How can I calm down? Does she know something and want to take back her identity?"
Sally pulled Jamie down, "Sit down first! Ceres doesn't know anything. I've checked. She does suspect that you are not Caleb's biological daughter, but she doesn't think about herself."
Jamie felt strange, "How is this possible?"
Ceres knew that the murderer who was in prison was not her biological father and she was born to Sally and another man. Ceres should first suspect that she was Caleb's daughter!
"I don't know. I think that Ceres is a little strange this time. Before, it seemed that she was sick of me when we met. But this time, although her tone is not good, it is much better than before."
Jamie pondered carefully, but she couldn't figure out anything.
Sally pulled back her thoughts. "Jamie, you have taken Ceres's place. Just let her go. May forgive and forget. Remove the red spots on her face and let her live a good life with Johny. She won't think that she is Caleb's daughter."
Jamie's face darkened, "Let her go? Did she let me go? She never showed mercy to me!"
Sally turned around and faced Jamie again. "It is another option. Think about it. As long as she and Johny live a good life, she won't provoke you. We will never return to Imperial City. Isn't it great?"
Jamie sneered, "Mom, your thoughts are too simple."
Sally didn't know how to persuade Jamie.
"Why is Ceres here? It was because she let us go. If we let her go, she will come back and bite us in the future!"
So why should I leave the hidden danger?"
Jamie narrowed her eyes.
Sally felt cold. She knew that Jamie was preparing to attack Ceres.
"Jamie, do you want to kill Ceres?"
Jamie did not answer.
"Jamie, don't do anything stupid!" Sally was scared out of her wits.
"Am I doing something stupid, or are you doing something stupid?" Jamie angrily scolded, "Don't forget, you came up with this idea. We are in the same boat. If someone knows, neither of us can run away. You know Caleb, right?"
Sally fell onto the bed.
She never thought she would be so forced by her own daughter.
Seeing that Sally was so scared that her face turned pale, Jamie sat down next to Sally and snuggled up to her. "Mom, you want to be biased again. We finally have a good life now. Why does Ceres come to cause trouble?"
"If you don't go to Imperial City to provoke her, she won't come." Sally's voice was very soft.
Jamie opened her mouth, "I was angry."
Sally's voice softened, "Jamie, listen to me. We should be satisfied with our current life. Don't do bad things anymore, okay? Keep Ceres's life."
Jamie could only pout when she saw Sally's determination.
