Mom Put a Doll on My Pillow Chapter 10
Now, it was Laura who came to light the aromatherapy oil for me.She asked, "Why do you have to light this every night? And why turn on so many lights? You've even got a doll to keep you company. You sure have many weird habits.""Ms. Short, you have no idea. This aromatherapy oil induces sleep. Once it's lit, you won't hear anything outside. You won't even notice if there's thunder or rain. Sometimes, I sleep so deeply I can't even wake up. It's really good for sleep," I replied."Is it really that good?" Laura asked skeptically."Of course! Mom had it custom-made at a high price," I said.Her eyes darted around slyly. "Say, how about you give me a couple? I feel like I haven't been sleeping well these past few days either. But don't tell Mrs. Cox. She's a bit stingy and won't let me touch the things in your room."It sounded like a question, but she had already taken two new bottles out of the cabinet.I frowned slightly, as if I felt troubled. "Of course, you can. I still hav

Over the next few days, I ate less and less. My complexion and lips gradually turned pale, and I lost two pounds. However, compared to how I had become nothing but skin and bones in my previous life, this was still much better.I slept for long periods of time, yet there were often dark circles under my eyes. I looked fatigued no matter how much I slept. Sometimes, I would even have gaps in my memory when chatting with them.This pleased my adoptive family, and the smiles on their faces widened. Their attentive concern for me gradually turned into perfunctory indifference.One day, I said weakly, "Mom, Dad, could you take me to the hospital for a checkup? I keep feeling unwell. It's like I have no strength left."They ignored me.My hand trembled slightly as I held my cup, like I was unnerved. "Please, Mom and Dad…"Cedric impatiently slammed his fork down. Only then did Jasper speak. "Haven't you always been fine?"Vivian took a sip of soup and said leisurely, "That's right,

After seeing the "repairmen" off and coming back, I once again heard the cheerful laughter of children. I silently apologized to the kids who would have to take the blame for me.Vivian sat on the couch and shot me a displeased stare. She was still holding the doll protectively in her arms.She started questioning me. "The chandelier was perfectly fine. How did it break? Did you open all the floor-to-ceiling windows?"I lowered my head, and my voice sounded choked with guilt. "I'm sorry, Mom. I thought the room was a bit damp. I was worried the doll's bed might get moldy, so I opened everything to air it out. I was only out on the balcony for a short while… Who knew…"Vivian pulled a long face. "Baby won't get moldy. From now on, don't open them so wide. Just leave a small gap. What if the chandelier really fell? Have you thought about that? Do you know how dangerous that would be?"It would certainly be dangerous for her precious Baby."Okay. I won't open them that wide again."

Cedric suddenly appeared behind me. "What are you doing? Why are you sneaking around like you've done something fishy?"He looked at me suspiciously. Then, his gaze fell on the flower bushes, and his expression changed instantly."You touched Belle's roses!" he accused angrily.I fell to the ground in shock. "C-Cedric, when did you get here? You didn't make a sound. You scared me to death!"A flash of disgust flitted across his eyes, but he still reached out and helped me up."What's this pile of black stuff for?" he asked.I picked up the small shovel and continued mixing as I explained, "I dug up the soil around here and added lime powder and several other fertilizers. It can prevent pests and also help the roses that Isabelle loved bloom even better."His expression softened a little. "Sorry, Beth. I was just anxious for a moment. After all, Belle used to love sitting in the gazebo and looking at these flowers."I nodded calmly and quickly filled the soil back in. Fortunatel

My gaze moved downward, and I saw her mouth split into a grotesque arc. A pair of blood-red fangs that gleamed eerily protruded from her mouth.Those fangs were aimed straight at my throat! If she bit me, it would severely damage my soul's attachment to my body!She seemed a little surprised, like she was not expecting me to wake up so suddenly. However, that surprise quickly turned into a vicious and greedy longing.The doll sped up and lunged straight at me.I instinctively tightened my grip on the object hidden beneath the blanket.My heart lurched.Damn it!I suddenly realized that my entire body was stiff.
