After Aunt Ives left, Rachel sat down and looked at Cora, who was sleeping.
She silently asked herself, "What should Mom do, Cora?" Cora had been washed, and her face looked clean and white. Rachel leaned down and gently kissed her forehead, her face showing both love and heartache.
Even though Cora hadn't been hurt, there were still marks from the ropes that had tied her.
But they had already been treated with medicine.
Looking at Cora sleeping so peacefully, Rachel smiled, but it was a bitter kind of smile, one that only showed when no one else was around.
Even though Kellan had been so bossy and unreasonable at first, making her be his driver just for a piece of clothing, he still brought them to the Elliott Family estate and gave them a really nice house, good food, and a much better life than before.
Rachel couldn't help but wonder if he had another reason behind all this.
He didn't treat them like just some random servants. Today, he even saved them.
