I should pull myself together.’ Dana quickly blinked away the tears before her eyes could get any teary. She kept telling herself that she shouldn’t scare the child away by making another scene like she did earlier.

But she couldn’t help but to feel overwhelmed to see her daughter enveloped in such a resplendent aura. Although Anikas were known to possess a unique aura that distinguishes them from ordinary people, Dana knew that there was something special about her daughter in contrast to other Anikas.

The same aura that runs in her mother’s side of the family, which both her mother and she have possessed, was clearly running in the veins of her daughter as well. But despite all that, Dana was able to recognize her child just by her strong maternal instinct.

Eugene let out a sigh of relief as she checked on Dana’s complexion, who was sitting up on the bed with a seemingly calm face.

‘I’m glad she’s alright.’ Eugene had been worried sick since the lady fainted before her all of sudden. Her mind was in shambles while she waited for the lady to regain her consciousness. No one blamed her for anything, but Eugene couldn’t help but feel remorseful about everything that had taken place during their meeting.

‘I better leave after giving my regards to her.’ She felt like she couldn’t stand any bit longer in the house anymore. It pained her all the more as Dana was looking at her with great longing affection in her gaze. Eugene told herself that she should avoid running into Jin’s family until the day she returns to the kingdom. She admitted that it was a foolish mistake of hers to regard Jin’s family and Sang-je in the same light.

She clearly wasn’t shameless enough to pretend to be someone’s daughter.

‘Nevertheless…. She really is a beautiful lady indeed.’

Her once blooming youth may have now gone from her face but there was something unique about the lady that gave her a significant air. People’s attention will most likely be concentrated more on the mother should both mother and daughter stand abreast.

Like people say, the path one has taken so far in life is bound to show on one’s appearance as one grows old. With that in mind, Eugene thought to herself that she would like to grow old just like the lady before her. There was an air of cool elegance radiating from the lady’s outer appearance and she didn’t appear to be small despite her slim frame.

“Jin.” Dana reached out her hand to Eugene with a tender smile on her face. “Come sit closer.”

[It’s me Jin.]

Instantly, one of Jin’s memories came into Eugene’s mind. Jin’s mother looked much younger in the memory in which Jin was staring at her. And like the other memory she had seen earlier, the lady didn’t spare a glance at Jin, not even once.

[I am Jin. Why would you say that I’m not!]
