Zachary thought for a moment. “No.”

“Zachary, if Mia has another episode when she wakes up, I’ll call the hospital right away. I’ll also continue helping with her treatment,” Sarah said seriously.

Zachary nodded. He trusted her completely.

After everything that had happened, Sarah was utterly drained. She slumped back into the sofa, her breathing heavy.

On top of the pain from her burns, a dull, twisting ache began forming in her lower stomach, like a sharp blade digging into her insides.

She curled up slightly, clutching her abdomen tightly. Zachary noticed immediately.

“Sarah, what’s wrong?”

“My stomach…” she muttered weakly, sweat breaking out across her forehead. She didn’t have the energy to explain further.

“Did you take your painkillers today?”

“Not yet,” she managed.

Zachary didn’t hesitate. He headed straight to the kitchen, pulling a bottle of prescribed pain medication from the cabinet. He poured a glass of warm water and set it on the counter before turning back t

    Vivian smiled and stood up gracefully. "I just arrived a moment ago.""Have you ordered yet?" Holden handed her the menu.Vivian didn't take it and joked, "You still don't understand me. In places like this, I never order."Holden chuckled. "Fine, I'll order then."The door to the private room opened, and the restaurant manager personally brought in their dinner."Distinguished guests, your meal is ready."The manager, wearing white gloves, arranged the dishes neatly on the table.His expression was neither servile nor arrogant, and his posture and manners were perfectly gentlemanly.He lifted one cover and explained warmly: "This is premium black Iberian ham, a national treasure of Indonesia. The black pigs are raised by farmers who feed them natural acorns from birth. This gives the meat a subtle nutty flavor—sweet on the palate with a lingering finish."He lifted another cover."This is the Philippine Angus steak you ordered. The beef comes from the local ranch, where matu

    It was the classic story—an old classmate confessed his feelings, got rejected, then tried to force himself on her. She humiliated him, and they never spoke again.Vivian closed her eyes, trying hard to set aside those past grievances.She scrolled through her contacts until she found a name both strange and familiar: Holden Foster.After hesitating for half an hour, her perfectly manicured finger finally pressed the call button.The waiting felt unbearable. Just when she thought he wouldn't answer, a slightly deep male voice came through. "Is this Vivian?"Vivian ignored the strange feeling rising in her heart and forced a calm tone. "Yes."The other end seemed surprised. "Why are you contacting me?"Vivian closed her eyes, thinking about the wine situation, and pretended to sound gentle. "Nothing special. I just felt it's been a long time, and I miss the old days.""Huh." Holden laughed. He shifted his position while holding the phone, still with that careless attitude. "Come

    At Adams University, Zachary stood with an icy expression, his eyes radiating the coldest fury as he looked at Tracy. "What the hell are you doing?"Though he only asked quietly, Tracy felt as if death itself had spoken.In that moment, she involuntarily released her grip on Mia's clothes. Mia fell heavily to the ground, landing on her arm with a cry of pain.Mia seemed almost deranged, only knowing how to scream without recognizing who had appeared.Tracy finally gathered her courage, remembering Vivian's words. She stammered, "We, we were just... Mia was interfering where she shouldn't. We didn't target her on purpose."Zachary walked over and pulled Mia to him, ignoring her struggling hands. These girls had truly told a massive lie. Everyone at Adams University knew Mia's status and position. For Tracy to act this way despite knowing who Mia was could only mean she was deliberately targeting her with someone powerful backing her up."I've memorized all your faces."Zachary wa

    Sarah spoke up. "Ma'am, may I ask you a few questions?"The woman looked at her in disbelief, pointing at herself. "Me?""Your hotel killed Yvonne, and you still want to question me?" Her eyes darted around, avoiding Sarah's gaze.Sarah persisted. "Miss, it's just a few questions. What are you afraid of?"In front of the police, the woman couldn't keep refusing without arousing suspicion.She reluctantly nodded. "But I'll only answer selectively."Sarah said calmly, "May I ask your name?""What does my name have to do with anything?" The woman frowned impatiently."Alright then. Ma'am, you said you spent a long time in Yvonne's room. I believe you and Yvonne entered the room at 5:45 PM, and then room service delivered dinner at 5:50 PM. Did anyone use the bathroom between the time you returned to the hotel and now?"The woman touched her neck, her eyes quickly scanning the room where police were now taking photos and collecting evidence.Only then did she answer, "No, neither

    The woman crying the hardest was still talking to the police. "I have no idea what happened. I just came to her room in the evening to discuss where we should go next on our tour. Halfway through our conversation, someone came to deliver dinner. Yvonne has social anxiety, so she waited until the server left before bringing the food in. She even invited me to eat with her, but I figured I'd have the same meal waiting in my room. We're just regular working people who finally got to enjoy something nice—none of us had ever had steak like this before. Before I could even get back to my room, she just collapsed onto the table. Officer, you have to find out what really happened!“Yvonne has had such a hard life. She has no father, and her mother is sick in the hospital. Even the medical bills are a problem. How could this happen? She was perfectly fine one minute, and then this!"The police officer took careful notes and asked, "Can you describe everything you saw at the time?""Yes, I wa

    Her hand trembled as she pulled a plastic-wrapped substance from her pocket, hesitating.A cold voice spoke from behind her. "You don't have much time left anyway. Think about your mother in the hospital. You can't earn enough money for her treatment while you're alive, but after you're dead, someone will take care of her."The woman turned around shakily, her face pale as she looked at the woman behind her. "Will you really do what you promised?""Why wouldn't we? Don't forget who you're dealing with. She never breaks her word, and this small amount of money means nothing to her." The woman behind her said mockingly.Finally, the thin woman swallowed hard and opened the plastic bag, sprinkling its contents evenly over the steak. She carefully placed the napkin around her collar and forced a smile.She had never eaten such fine Western food before. This steak was worth thousands. Who would have thought she'd enjoy such a meal before dying?She picked up her phone again and looked

    "Do you know what I want to do?""What do you really want?""Here, take a drag." She forcefully pushed the cigarette into Mia's mouth, but Mia immediately spat it out."Hmph! What a loser!” Tracy slapped Mia's face with the cigarette and then patted her cheek mockingly.The others joined in, saying Mia was just acting.Tracy smirked and grabbed Mia's chin again. "Let me ask you something. What's your relationship with Mark? Are you two dating? Or do you have some dirty little secret? Why else would you stick together every day?"Her followers eagerly chimed in, "I bet they've already slept together.""With her scrawny figure, who could possibly like her?"“Mark Kingston obviously does. He follows her around like a puppy every day."Hearing these comments, Mia's face turned pale, while Tracy became even more excited. She murmured,”Someone's already seen everything, so don't be so stingy. Let us see too. Let's find out if you’ve got a good figure!”"Haha, exactly! Let's strip h

    She remained shaken. There shouldn’t be anybody in the room at this time.Slowly, she opened the door, carefully checking around. No one was there.But she had clearly heard that distinct creaking sound and seen that terrifying eye.The long corridor was quiet, with few people visible in this corner.Especially after lunch, when everyone would be taking their afternoon rest, nobody should be wandering around here.Mia had just changed her clothes and was heading back to her classroom to get her phone.Before she could cross the hallway, someone suddenly appeared.Tracy shoved Mia hard against the wall. Her back slammed into it, causing her to grunt in pain.Beside the long corridor were many weeds and trees. People outside couldn't easily see in, and those inside couldn't easily notice people outside.No one noticed that while Tracy was bullying Mia, a thin figure darted out from the corridor and ran straight to Mia's classroom."How funny. Doesn't feel good to be soaked like

    Her already unstable emotions grew worse. The more she panicked, the more confused she became, and the harder it was to find the edges of the cloth.Amid the noise, she heard water—the sound of liquid splashing."Ah!"A fierce coldness poured down on her head. It was water, spreading its chill through the white cloth.The icy water instantly penetrated the fabric, hitting her head and running down her face. Her clothes were soaked through.She felt a bone-deep chill as her entire body became drenched."Who's there? What do you want?" she demanded.But no one answered. She only heard footsteps—one pair, two pairs, or several? She couldn't tell in her panic. Not content with what they'd already done, they poured another bucket of water over her head.The frightening footsteps gradually retreated. Mia used all her strength to finally lift the huge white cloth.Trembling, she opened the stall door, but the bathroom was completely empty, as if no one had ever been there.No bucket
