Chapter 366
Chapter 366:
“So, you did kill someone using your powers,” Xyla cut me off, finality in her tone.
“You’re a witch?” Xylon had this disappointment in his voice and eyes. By the Moon, I could endure the whole world hating me; not these kids. I couldn’t even explain the kind of bond I’d formed with them, but it would completely kill me to know they hated me like most people.
“Come on, please. Let’s just forget about that, okay? It’s not talk for children,” I still pressed, hoping that by some cruel fate, they’d have pity on me and let the matter die.
But who was I kidding?
“We don’t play with witches! Mummy said not to!” She grabbed her brother’s hand and took several steps back.
“Please, nanny. We don’t wanna play with her. Not now p>
I didn’t even try to stop the tear that slid down my cheek. The scene felt so unreal. Xylon and Xyla avoiding me?! I guessed I underestimated Marta’s passion to manipulate the kids into hating me this whole time.
I didn’t wait for the nanny to tell me. I hurried out of the room.
As soon as I reached my room, I let the dam pour, crying uncontrollably. Nothing had ever hurt me like this. Not even when Roderick maltreated me. Not all those times when Jaris hurt me and made me cry. This feeling… this was totally different. Too painful.
The reality started to dawn on me. While I might have been of help to a lot of people, not everyone would like me. People like Xylon and Xyla actually considered me dangerous and didn’t want to have anything to do with me. How do I continue living in this situation?
Oh, gods. What if… what if I get to find my kids and they also become scared of me? What if this very one in my womb grows up to hate me as well?
I wept for a long time, losing track of time. It wasn’t until my phone started ringing that I snapped out for a moment to answer the call, which was from a strange number.
The moment I heard the voice, my day got completely worse.

I sprang to my feet, dread and disgust flooding me.
Caden.

“Wh-what do you want?” I had to clear my throat to make sure it didn’t come out raspy and give away the fact that I was crying.
“It was you p>
His words made me furrow my brows, until slowly, they made sense.
He still pointed it out. “The girl at the hospital. The one that saved me p>
I hadn’t realized the extent of what I did until Caden himself was thanking me for it. Gosh, I hated myself right now.
