Chapter 593 - "Sense Of Belonging"
The person felt like cursing Ainsley. In one moment, her soul flickered, as if about to go rampage, but then the next moment, it calmed down.
Is it because of other external items helping her to calm down?
Indeed. The golden pacifier actually helped Ainsley to calm her mind once in a while.
The soul-illusion ability user could only sigh and tried to console himself.
"She's still sane. Even after I drive her that far, she's still sane...but don't worry. Her soul is shaking even harder now. In no time, we can pluck her soul."
The person was already convinced that they could steal Ainsley's foreign soul but little did they know that inside Ainsley's consciousness, she was battling her own illusion.
Currently, 'Ainsley' is mocking Ainsley and attacking her sore spots non-stop, as if eager to rip her apart.
"You shameless auntie! You're not satisfied with your life in your world and that's why you come here– but you steal what's mine!"
The child stomped her feet, looking exactly like Ainsworth when she's throwing a tantrum.
Little by little, 'Ainsley' spoke more hurtful words and those were actually the things Ainsworth thought deep in her heart.
"You are a coward, Ainsworth! You can only escape from your world because you're a loser!"
"What's so fun stealing another person's body when they're still alive and replacing their souls? You're no different from a demon."
"Quickly give me back my body! Even without you, my Sloan Family will still flourish. I'm just too young but later, I will be even stronger than you!"
Ainsworth fell silent.
Her soul turbulence happened even more often than before, yet fortunately, the golden pacifier's effect constantly soothed her chaotic mind and soul.
Despite not knowing that the 'Ainsley' in front of her wasn't the real Ainsley's soul, Ainsworth bit her lips and decided to persevere.
"I know that I'm just a thief who steals all your rights. But I'm not using your body to idle away, right? I'm doing my best for the family!"
Ainsworth tried to suppress the pain in her heart that she got after 'Ainsley' spouted such hateful words.
"I am already an adult, but you're still a toddler. Even if I give your body back, there's not a lot of things that a toddler can do."
Ainsworth had lived as Ainsley for months now and she knew that a miraculous baby like her was very rare.
Even in her generation, those with a similar trait with her were only Blair and Finley.
But she also didn't know whether they're truly children or not.
Thus, even if the real Ainsley got back her body, what could she do for the family? She had to wait until she grew up and that would take a long time.
The Sloan Family was now in a critical point and couldn't afford to regress.
Ainsworth firmly believed this, and that was the only reason why she could reason with 'Ainsley'.
"I know this is shameless of me to say, but as for now, I believe that I'm more useful than you." Ainsworth looked at 'Ainsley' with a pair of tranquil eyes.
There's no mockery or disdain in her gaze, just plain truth.
"I don't care if you suddenly come back and take the body, I don't care. But as for now, I have to bring the Sloan Family to the top before handing the body back to you."
At first, Ainsworth didn't have such a heavy responsibility toward the Sloan Family.
After all, she's a foreign soul. She had no connection to the Sloan Family.
But now she had Cellino, Elliana, Grandpa Yofan, Jevon and the others, Axelle, not to mention the Godfather and Zev…
She felt that she had to protect these people, and they're all related to the Sloan Family.
And such, Ainsworth slowly stood up, straightened her back and quietly looked at 'Ainsley'.
"If you want, I'll occupy this body until the Sloan Family stand at the top of the mafia world. After that, you can take back your body and enjoy all my hard work."
She might not belong to this world, but she longed to be a part of this world.
Thus, helping the Sloan Family reach the pinnacle served as a catalyst, something that Ainsworth thought to be a good reason to feel a sense of belonging.
If she brought the Sloan Family to the top, not only would her life be better, but maybe...her people would still accept her even after knowing the truth.
She never thought of telling others, but deep inside, she felt that they would tolerate her if she dedicated her all for the Sloan Family.
They..they would still love her and wouldn't think of chasing her soul away to bring back the original Ainsley.
At this point, Ainsworth knew that she's being selfish, but thinking again...whether she could keep the body until the end or not, she still wanted to help the Sloan Family.
This family might not be her real family, not her organisation, not her business, but the people inside...they are the reason why she persevered.
Ainsworth wanted to see Grandpa Yofan living a long life. She wanted to see Elliana when she got married one day.
She wanted to personally witness her family arriving at the pinnacle of the mafia society.
She wanted her family to receive what they deserve, and all of them only deserve happiness.
Even if she had to let go of her body as soon as she finished her mission, Ainsworth unknowingly thought that...she didn't mind.
With such a strong rebuttal, 'Ainsley' was stumped for words.
This foreign soul loved this world so much that she would do the harsh work and let another soul enjoy the benefit?
