The Devil Who Devoured Snow White Chapter 17
Advertisement
Mengmeng decided to keep the name to herself. She didn't tell her two companions about the name she remembered. She feared that 'Han Xukun' might be the name of the father of the child she was carrying.
That should be a great thing, right? But then… she couldn't help but think… what if she didn't have a good relationship with him? If she told them the name of that man, they might send her off to him at once.
What kind of man was Han Xukun?
The kid in her memory was cold… what if he grew up to be an abusive person? If that was the case, going back to her old life would only be a terrible idea! This life was better than being beaten up, right? But… What if he wasn't a bad person? She wouldn't know, not until her memories returned. She probably should stay low. Instead of that man, she should focus on looking for her family.
"Since we're going to work together from now on, I will give you an important piece of advice." Tian Ruyi couldn't hide the look of despair in her eyes. "We have one common enemy right now. We need to be careful once we arrive in Japan," she added confidentially.
"E-enemy?" Mengmeng stammered, blinking in surprise. If there was someone she would consider a threat at that moment, it was none other than Bai Jingye's mother and brother. "Are they Bai Jingye's parents and brother?" She asked carefully, curiously as well.
A scoff escaped Tian Ruyi's lips, "they're just his pawns. The mastermind behind them is the real threat."
The mastermind?
"Bai Keran," she said with a dark look on her face. "I advise you not to trust him so easily."
Mengmeng furrowed her brows in confusion. " Why? Grandpa Bai has helped me a lot."

"Did you really think that he will help someone like you without plotting something behind?"
"But I saved him… shouldn't that be enough reason?" No matter how much she tried to think about it, Bai Keran never treated her cruelly. He helped her. If there was someone she could trust the most, it was probably him.
"Even if that's the case, you shouldn't believe everything he said to you." She took her bag and pulled out a small amber bottle, showing it to her. "He gave Jingye this medicine for you to take once we reach Japan. Do you know what kind of medicine this is?"
"Since it's a medicine he gave, it should be good, right?"
"All kinds of medicine always have their own adverse effects. This bottle has powdered rosemary inside. It may help you with your memories if you take proper amounts but… will it be good for the child you are carrying?" She asked, sharply staring at her.
"Don't tell me that's…" she paused, she was rather hesitant about continuing. Deep inside, she was rather hoping that it was not that kind of medicine.
Tian Ruyi didn't wait for her as she continued, "rosemary is also usually used by women who wanted to abort their children."
Abortion… If that herbal medicine was given by grandpa Bai then did he know about her pregnancy?
"Do you still think that Bai Keran is a simple old man who only wants to repay you with kindness for saving his life?"
"That can't be. It might just be a coincidence. He doesn't know that I'm pregnant."
"Are you sure about that?" She placed the bottle on the table. "You were unconscious for two months after the accident, right? It was Bai Keran who paid for your hospital bills. If not you, then to whom will the doctor report your condition to?"

Mengmeng clenched her fists tightly as she lowered her head, her eyes locked on the small amber bottle. It was hard to believe the facts that were served in front of her. She thought that he was the only person on her side who was willing to protect her until her memories returned.
"Then why did he make me marry Bai Jingye? Why did he lie about me being his adoptive granddaughter and a fiancé of his grandson?"
Wasn't it all because she saved him?
"That's because Bai Jingye is the only person who wants to escape his reins. Everyone in the Bai family is his pawns. Jingye didn't want to be one."

Terminal
My heart was shattered that day. It was on that day that I realized that life had an end, and that mine was coming. It was on that day that I realized that I was going to die. Leukemia, they told me. It's almost over. I didn't know what to do after that. I thought that maybe it would be best to die right then, get it over with. I thought that I could push myself away from all my friends, all my family, stop them from missing me after I was gone. I thought that I could handle it on my own, that perhaps the world was better off without me. I was wrong. So please help me, I'm dying. Save me, I'm falling. They tell me I won't survive. Please catch me, because if you don't, I'll shatter. I can't grab on anymore, I can't keep fighting. It's going to swallow me up. My name is Alyssa Gray, and by the time you finish reading this, I'll be dead. ________________________________ A few warnings and things to note: -I've put up the tramatising content tag due to a lot of mentions on death, dying, illness, and a mother who tends to be rather cruel. I know that I take a perspective that many will strongly disagree with, and I'm okay with that. Just be warned that this isn't lighthearted stuff. This is real, and death is real, and this part streaches beyond the fiction into reality. -I'm going to say a minor spoiler, but I don't want it to take you unaware because it is something to be aware of. At one point, my MC attempts suicide and fails. It's a very violent scene and I will put up the gore tag after writing this, and it's also just really depressing. If this will be triggering, you need to be aware of this before you read it. -This is a christian book. It may go against some of your beliefs. I hope that you can read and comment anyway even if some of it does not sit well with you. Credits for the cover go to the user 'Media in Sanity'. Your help and assitance has meant so much to me, God bless you in your writing and your endevours. A proud member of WriTE. I've promised to finish this fiction and update it at least once a month. My schedule is very irregular, and I'm working on that, but I'm going to do everything I can to make sure that this book stays out there. I'm not ending it until it's done.
