Heiress Unmasked: Shaking the World With Geomancy novel Chapter 972

Rachelle scrolled through the comments when her phone suddenly seemed to lag. The screen froze, and the app crashed before the entire screen went black.

"What's going on? Is it broken already?" she muttered and tapped the screen. Then, she tried to reboot the phone.

Unbeknownst to her, the phone's front camera flickered with a faint eerie flow.

Behind the network domain, Peanut peeked through and gazed intently at Rachelle in front of the camera. So, this was… its mother.

Though its previous grudge toward Rachelle had dissipated, Peanut still remembered her unique energy.

A strange swirled within its body as it opened its mouth and tried to mimic how Shannon and the others spoke. After some effort, it finally managed to produce a soft, kitten-like sound. "M… Mom."

The faint tender voice echoed through the vast and empty network domain.

Rachelle froze. She thought she'd heard something, but before she could focus, the oven chimed with a crisp ding to signal the bread was ready.

She distractedly placed the phone aside and picked up her oven mitts. Then, she turned to attend to the freshly baked bread.

Peanut couldn't see her face anymore and cautiously peeked its head out of the phone. It saw Rachelle standing with her back to it and opening the oven.

The aroma of freshly baked bread instantly filled the room.

Peanut's bright eyes sparkled. As it watched Rachelle bask in the warm aroma of bread, it mentally noted that its mother was the smell of freshly baked bread.

It lingered a moment longer and gazed wistfully at Rachelle. Then, it softly called out again, "M… Mom."
