เข้าสู่ระบบ~MercedesI stood there staring intensely at the doctor, my face twisted with agitation and bitter resentment. I had dragged myself to this hospital, pouring in my time and effort, all because I believed this was the perfect opportunity to finally push that stupid, baseless Mia out onto the streets where she belonged.Right now, I was convinced that the LeVert family was sponsoring her. I knew for a fact that Troy and Claire were the two people backing her up. If they abandoned her, she would become nothing—a nobody. She would return to the useless girl she once was and start crawling back to Felix, begging him for forgiveness on her knees. That was exactly what I wanted: for Mia to go back to square one. And to make that happen, I had to strip away the affection and support of the very people lifting her up.I had thought that maybe—just maybe—if I could convince Claire that Mia was a rotten person, she would throw her out of the house. That was why I had lowered myself to her le
[Claire]The confident, almost friendly expression on Mercedes’ face vanished in an instant. In its place was pure, blazing anger—an unmistakable determination to strike back.She snarled at me, her voice dripping with venom. “I just spent over ten minutes of my precious time trying to make everything clear to you! Trying to help you understand exactly what kind of person that bitch is—and here you are, defending her, licking her god-damned ass?!”I shook my head firmly, refusing to back down. “No, Mercedes. You didn’t spend ten minutes trying to enlighten me. You spent ten minutes trying to destroy the bond I share with my best friend.”Mercedes brushed her hair back sharply and let out a scornful laugh. “Excuse me? You’re really calling her your best friend? The same girl who nearly got your own brother killed?”I nodded without hesitation. “Yes, Mercedes. I’m siding with Mia, and there’s nothing you can say or do that will ever make us see her as a threat—let alone send her away f
[Claire]As Mercedes spoke those words to me, my mind instantly flashed back to the events of earlier that day at the mall. Everything had unfolded so quickly.A man had tried to drag Ovire out of the mall against her will. Troy had stepped in to stop him. But the stranger turned on my brother with a menacing glare and snarled that the woman was his wife. He warned Troy to mind his own business and stay out of his marriage.The moment I heard him say those words, something in his tone and expression sent a chill down my spine. His face was twisted with raw fury, his eyes cold and unpredictable. It was clear this wasn’t an ordinary argument. A man like him could be armed—dangerously so. I could almost picture the heavy, sharp object he might be concealing, something that could end my brother’s life in a heartbeat.I immediately grabbed Troy’s arm and pulled him back firmly.“That guy doesn’t seem like someone to mess with at all,” I whispered urgently. “The way he’s speaking, the lo
[Claire]The emergency van screeched to a halt in front of City Hospital. Its doors flew open, and the paramedics quickly rolled Troy out on the stretcher. I stayed glued to his side, clutching his hand as I ran alongside, my heart hammering in my chest.I gripped him tightly, refusing to let go even for a second. “Please, Troy! Stay with me, okay? Don’t you dare give up—I’m right here!” Tears streamed down my face as I spoke, blurring my vision.His body was drenched in blood, the crimson soaking through his clothes and dripping onto the stretcher. He was losing so much of it, too much. I could feel the warmth of it on my fingers as I held his bloodied hand, running desperately beside him while sobs tore from my throat.“You’ve always been so strong, Troy. You’ve always been the strongest person I know. Please… don’t let anything happen to you now. Fight, okay?”A faint smile tugged at his lips, weak and strained, as if even that small movement cost him everything. “Mi… Mia?”
[Mia] Instead of shrinking back from the gun trained on my chest, I took two deliberate steps forward, closing the distance between us. My voice came out steady, laced with quiet fury.“I know exactly what your intentions are, Marj. I know you’re about to cash in $65 million by trading Ovire’s kidney—and the rest of her organs on the black market. But let me give you some beautiful advice: she is not your asset. She’s your wife, yes. But she is not a commodity for you to harvest for illicit profit.”Marj blinked, momentarily thrown off balance by how much I knew. “Excuse me?” His grip on the gun tightened. “How the hell would you know any of that?”I let out a sharp, bitter scoff. “I overheard everything, Marj. Every sick detail. And I’m fully aware that your sudden desperation to drag Ovire back into your life isn’t about love or reconciliation. You need her kidney. That’s the only reason you’re fighting for her.”I paused, a cold smirk tugging at my lips. “But not under my watch. I
[Mia]Instead of standing there and drowning in endless questions, I immediately turned to my left and spotted the restroom area.The lady had said they went toward the toilets, which meant they had to be somewhere around there.I had to hurry.I had to make sure Marj didn't hurt Ovire.I had to stop him from taking her out of the country.Without wasting another second, I rushed toward the women's restroom.Just then, I saw the paramedics wheeling Troy away on a stretcher.For a brief moment, my heart eased.Seeing him alive and in safe hands was all that mattered.Now, there was only one thing left to do.Find Ovire and make sure she was safe too.I pushed open the restroom door and hurried inside.The first stall.BANG!I flung the door open.A woman was sitting there, relieving herself.She let out a terrified scream."Privacy, please!"My eyes widened."Sorry! It's an emergency!""Get outtttt!"She shrieked so loudly that I immediately slammed the door shut and moved on.The seco
[Mercedes]Everything happened so fast that I barely realized when that bitch, Mia, gained the upper hand and slammed me to the ground.Thank God Felix showed up when he did. Otherwise, she would have completely ruined my face with those vicious punches she kept throwing.Right now, I was seated in
[Mia]Mercedes's grip was merciless—tight, brutal, and suffocating. I could practically feel strands of my hair being ripped from my scalp.A painful groan escaped my lips as the agony intensified.“Let go of me, Mercedes!”But she was too consumed by anger—perhaps even pride—to listen.“Who the he
[Mia]It's been over an hour since I arrived at this eatery, yet I still haven't caught a glimpse of Mercedes.I glanced at my wristwatch.1:00 PM.Mercedes had specifically said we were to meet at 12:00 PM, but it was already an hour past the agreed time, and she was nowhere to be seen.Rubbing my
[Mia]I was still in the bathroom, lost in thought as I replayed everything that had happened today.It had been a hectic day, but at the same time, it was a day that gave me the satisfaction of watching the very people who had wished for my downfall suffer a painful crack in their unity.The ange
