  • I wish it were you   Chapter 1711 Someone's Feeling Sour

    It turned out that Briley had planted two poisonous plants in the small garden of Anna's mother. One was called Ghost Nightshade , whose fruit resembled small tomatoes, and the other was a plant commonly known as Drunken Heart Flower, which was highly toxic—its scent alone could cause hallucinations.Years ago, Briley had visited her pregnant sister, Tiffany, and intentionally picked some Ghost Nightshade fruits, mixing them into a bowl of small tomatoes to trick her sister into eating them. Just two of those fruits were enough to kill a child, as their toxicity was immense.How much her mother had consumed, Anna didn’t know. But one thing was certain: after eating the Ghost Nightshade, combined with the long-term exposure to the toxic flower's scent, her mother went into premature labor.

She would no longer be surnamed Sanchez but Murphy.Murphy…Wait a minute. Suddenly, she thought of something and turned to Kendrick. "Your mother’s surname is also Murphy. Could it be that we're… siblings?""Well, we already have a child, so if we are siblings, it's too late," Kendrick said, casually."That can't be possible!" Anna laughed, shaking her head.Her father chuckled and reassured her, "Don’t worry. Our Murphy family and Kendrick's mother's Murphy family don’t share the same ancestor. You two just focus on living your life, and eve
