Heather wouldn't allow Natalie to step out of Lotus Villa, not even to return to Hillside Villa.

Resignedly, Natalie had no choice but to stay put.

Inside the study, Stephen glanced at Natalie.

"Your eyesight has truly reached..."

Stephen trailed off, and the anguish within his tone was palpable to Natalie.

"Dad!" Natalie interrupted.

"It's better to have the surgery sooner. It'll also ease your mother's worries."

"But I..."

"Don't worry. We'll arrange for the best surgeons for you." Stephen seemed to understand

Natalie's concerns and tried to reassure her.

In reality, both Stephen and Heather were anxious, especially fearing the possibility of the

surgery failing.

Hence, they were extra cautious in making arrangements.

"Dad," Natalie began hesitantly.

"Yes?"

"I-I'm... genuinely scared..."

Natalie had always been concerned about how Stephen and others worried for her. Yet

now, at this critical juncture, she couldn't help but show her genuine fear to her family.

She was truly terrified!

The feeling of darkness was something she never wanted to experience again. She had

always protected her eyesight, but things had spiraled to this point despite her efforts.

Did she feel suffocated?

Absolutely.

In her past life, when she opened her eyes, all she encountered was darkness. That

moment drove her to madness, instilling profound fear and panic within her.

Yet afterward, she mostly worked on adapting to that darkness.

But this life was different!

The descent into darkness was gradual, making it all the more unbearable for her.

"Don't be afraid. We'll all be by your side."

"Okay," Natalie responded softly, lowering her head as tears trickled down.

Yes, it was different this time.

Even if she couldn't escape the fate of her past life, at least her family was with her.

It was unlike before when Cedric was the only person she had amidst the darkness. At that

time, he was also the man she desperately wanted to distance herself from.

After speaking with Stephen, Natalie spent the morning trying her best to stay close to

Luna.

However, this kind of company was painful for her.

She realized that everything else was too blurry apart from the bright red bow atop her

daughter's head.

Even her daughter's face appeared indistinct.

Previously, Natalie could barely manage to drive herself around. Now, not only was driving

out of the question, but she also struggled to see the dashboard clearly.

The thought of navigating roads was even more daunting...!

"Mommy, would you eat this?" Luna's voice was soft and gentle as she handed something

over. The texture was sticky, and Natalie didn't know what it was.

Natalie reached out based on the shadow. "Thank you."

She tasted it only to discover it was ice cream.

Passing it back to her daughter, she said, "Mommy doesn't want it. You shouldn't have too

much either."

Since her eyesight deteriorated, Natalie had become particularly cautious about her diet,

avoiding spicy and cold foods.

"Mommy."

"Yes?"

"Can we go skateboarding?"

Luna's words grew more understandable lately.

Natalie's heart softened. "Sure."

She got up, allowing herself to be led by her child. Activities like skateboarding were

something all children loved to do. She recalled her own childhood days when she loved

skateboarding, often accompanied by her foster mother.

"Mommy, come quickly!" Her daughter beckoned, waving her hands. Natalie followed her

shadow.

However, for reasons unknown, she stumbled. Unable to see clearly, she lost her balance

and leaned forward uncontrollably.
