Chapter 661: Can I Replace Her?

Titania had finally calmed down when she felt Ella's warmth in her arms. Her daughter gave her a sense of security. Not only her, but also Zu Wan, the person who saved her tonight.

"Mom, are you okay now? Please don't cry. Did you have a nightmare? Father and I are just here. Don't be afraid," Ella softly mumbled. Her little hands were gently caressing her mother's face.

Titania smiled tenderly at her before nodding her head.

"Mother is fine now. Not afraid anymore." 

She pulled Ella into a warm hug. Zu Wan felt content seeing the mother and daughter duo. At least both of them were safe.

"I'm gonna buy some food. Titania, you haven't eaten your dinner, right?" Zu Wan said as he volunteered to go out.

"It's alright, Mr. Zu, I will just cook some food. By the way, let me see your wound." 

Titania remembered that he bled during his fight a while ago. Someone shot him and his shoulder got hit.

"I'm fine now. Ella took care of my wound. She treated me," Zu Wan said with a faint smile.

"Yes, mother! I will not let anything bad happen to you and father! I will become a doctor and take care of you!" Ella proudly said to them.

"I'm so glad to have a doctor baby!" Titania pinched Ella's fluffy cheeks.

Soon Zu Wan left the house to buy dinner for Titania. She had time to reminisce about her strange dream. It was like something had triggered her to remember it from her subconscious.

"Was it a dream or part of my past? Why do I feel like everything I saw in that dream was real?" Titania pondered to herself.

She massaged her temples. Her head was still throbbing.

"Kill the demon god?" 

Titania's heart constricted at the mention of the demon god. She pressed her heart, massaging her chest.

"What is the meaning of those symbols? It is like a ritual. Who is the girl holding a golden dagger?"

Titania tried to rack her brain so hard but she could no longer remember. But she felt like she still had an unfinished mission.

Titania was so engrossed with what she was thinking that she failed to realize that Ella had already fallen asleep beside her.

Her lips curled up. She knew that her daughter was too exhausted from playing with Zu Wan the whole afternoon.

"Ella is sure having fun with Zu Wan around. This is the first time I saw her sleeping peacefully with a smile. It's been a long time since the last time I saw how happy she was like this."

Titania bent down to plant a soft kiss on Ella's forehead. She carried Ella, bringing her to her room. Ella loved to sleep in her own bed so Titania transferred her.

Titania decided to take a quick bath. Lots of things happened tonight. She needed a warm bath to relax her mind and body.

She removed her clothes and stepped into the shower as she turned on the dial. While her naked body was soaked into the water, her mind wandered back to what happened today.

She didn't know how everything turned out like this. She was already burdened by the accidental discovery she had about their Chairman's evil plan.

Who would have thought that she would encounter another trouble in her second workplace? 

Her boss tried to force himself on her. He shamelessly asked her to become his mistress and lover. He even asked her to sleep with him in exchange for money.

Titania would never return to that workplace again. In fact, she was hesitating to go back to her workplace, both the Creamline Restaurant and the Miller's Company.

"Sigh, but how can I pay off my debts? The loan sharks are also brutal if I can't give them money for this month. Are they the ones who sent those thugs who attacked me a while ago?"

Titania was still figuring out their motives for attacking her. After a few seconds, Titania shook her head. If they were from the loan sharks then they should have asked for her money.

But the way things unfolded a while ago, it seemed that they wanted her life more than the money. They wanted to kill her. But why?

"Why are they targeting me?" Titania rubbed her face using her hands. She was still shaken by everything that happened to her tonight.

Then Zu Wan's handsome face popped up in her mind. Her fears disappeared because of him. She remembered how he came to her rescue, fighting those armed men with his bare hands.

A glowing smile subconsciously made its way across her lips. Her heart started pounding crazily inside her chest.

She forgot to ask him how he learned that she needed his help. She was so grateful and she wanted to repay him for saving her life.

"What can I do for him? I don't have money. I can only offer him a temporary shelter since he needs a place to stay. But if I don't have work how can I support him and Ella?"

Titania watched her reflection in the mirror. She had conflicting thoughts right now. She was planning to do something but she was not sure if Zu Wan would like it or not.

She caressed her body, touching her skin as she continued watching her reflection on the mirror.

Ella mentioned to her that she tried asking Zu Wan to become her father. She even proudly said that she had a beautiful mother. Titania felt so embarrassed when she learned it from her daughter.

But unfortunately, Zu Wan refused her offer, telling her that he had his own family. But if he had his family, how come he was alone? And what changed his mind to stay with them?

These were some questions running in Titania's mind right now. Then her eyes lit up as she remembered something.

"He called me Eva. He mistook me for his wife. Do I really look like his wife? Will he accept me if I try to replace his wife Eva? Can I… can I just make him Ella's father for real?"
