Chapter 46

    She had no recollection of anything from her childhood. She always thought it was because she was ate bloomer and began to remember things

    Her earliest memories were when she was brought to Tocham by Matthew and lived there ever since.


    Lilly tucked Judy''s fringe behind her ears, revealing her beautiful features. As if talking to herself, Lilly said, "It''s because you''ve forgotten it. If you


    could remember it, you wouldn''t havee to Techam with Matthew."


    Judy was confused. "Why so? I thought Father brought us here because our old ce wasn''t safe?"


    Judy lived in the mountains with Lilly and her mother as a kid. But her mother passed away in a bushfire. And it was because of this incident that

    "You''ll find-out when you can open


    the box," tilly said. She sounded SO
