After all, in real life, no one would really cut off their flesh and blood. Even ants struggled to survive, let alone humans.
Lily raised an eyebrow and sneered, "Humph... What's wrong? You don't want to? Well, then become a daughter of the Mirren Family!"
"Okay!"
Nancy suddenly spoke up, startling Lily who had just finished speaking.
But soon she reacted, her eyes brightening with excitement, "Then come back with me to the Mirren Family... Irvin..."
"Hold on!"
Nancy raised her hand to stop her and said firmly, her eyes bloodshot, "I will cut off my flesh and return it to you!"
"What?"
Both Lily and Irvin, the driver, were startled.
He suddenly slammed on the brakes, and the car stopped in the middle of the road.
Seeing Lily's shocked expression, Nancy took a deep breath and said firmly, "I promise you, after I find Dad, I will cut off my flesh and return it to you. I don't treasure anything you've given me. If possible, I'd rather die than be your daughter!"
With that, she turned around, opened the car door, and got out without hesitation under Lily's astonished gaze.
"Beep... Beep..."
Because the car was stopped in the middle of the road, several cars behind were forced to stop. When Nancy got out of the car, she almost got hit by a passing car, but she got out of the car with determination, looked around, crossed the traffic flow, and walked onto the sidewalk.
Irvin stared after her and swallowed hard. He never expected that Nancy would give up her life just to sever ties with Lily.
"Mrs. Mirren, what should we do now?"
"Boo-hoo..."
Nancy cried for a long time before she stood up from the ground.
Both of her legs had gone numb, and she almost fell. After stabilizing herself, she stood there for a while before slowly taking a step forward.
In the afternoon, when Professor White saw her, he was taken aback.
Her eyes were swollen, making him feel sorry for her.
Professor White couldn't comfort her with words, so he could only help her more with her paper.
After school in the afternoon, Nancy came out of the school gate and immediately saw the Rolls-Royce parked outside the school. She pursed her lips and walked towards it.
The car window rolled down, revealing Charlie's handsome face. When he saw Nancy's eyes, his deep eyes instantly darkened. "Nan, have you cried?"
