Pregnant and Favored: See You in the Morning, Young Master novel Chapter 1340

“You know what? Since you’re about to die anyway, I’ll let you in on a secret! You see, our end goal had always been to murder you!” scoffed the leader, prompting Xavia to frown.

…Goal? Had someone hired them to do all this? Was there a need to be this cruel…?! Before Xavia could even think of a reply, one of the men revealed a knife… and began walking up to Xavia!

Eyes widening when she saw that, Yulia immediately began flailing about while crying out, “M-Mommy…! No! Don’t kill Mommy!”

Alas, no matter how much she struggled, the adult’s grip on her remained secure…

Alternating her gaze between Yulia and the approaching man, Xavia couldn’t help but shed a few tears… Looks like this was the end… Understanding that, Xavia took a deep breath before saying, “…Fine. I’ll stop resisting. However, since I’m going to die anyway, let me do it myself!”

Naturally, this left everyone stunned. She… was going to commit suicide? Before anyone else could reply, Xavia added in a pained voice, “…I simply have one request in return… Let me hug my daughter before I die. We’ve been apart for three days… And I’d like to give her some warmth one final time. Don’t worry, it’s not like I can take on all of you once she’s in my arms!”

“…If… If you need proof of my determination, here!” yelled Xavia as she picked a knife—that had earlier fallen to the ground—up and sliced her palm!

Eyes widening when she saw blood seeping out of Xavia’s palm, the terrified Yulia screamed, “M-Mommy…!”

“H-has she gone mad?!” exclaimed one of the henchmen.

“…She knows she’ll die soon, so she’s taking things into her own hands! That’s a mother’s love for you!”
