Chapter 6

Author: Lemon
I shot Rebecca a cold, piercing glare, no longer wanting to deal with her. With every ounce of energy, I tried to shake her off.

As soon as she released me, I lost my balance and stumbled toward the stairs. Suddenly, everything spun, and I felt dizzy, unable to see clearly. With a loud thud, I collapsed.

When I woke up, I found myself in a hospital bed. Sitting beside me, her eyes red from crying, was Rebecca, looking anxious and concerned.

"Spencer, you're awake! How do you feel? Are you still in pain?" she asked, her voice filled with urgency.

I weakly turned my face away, not wanting to look at her.

Rebecca's soft sobs filled the room as she gently adjusted my blanket, speaking in a quiet, tender voice. "The doctor said the complications from your acute kidney failure are severe. You're anemic and have low blood sugar. You need to rest and take care of yourself. Don't worry about returning home just yet. I'll stay here and take care of you."

    But the truth wasn't as I had hoped. Even after staying up late for days on end, Jenna hadn't received any definitive news about the donor match.Looking at her exhausted face, I couldn't help but feel a wave of sympathy. "Jen, stop worrying. You need to rest."Her face was pale, but she softly reassured me, "I'm fine. You go to sleep.""Jen, why are you being so kind to me?" The question that had been weighing on my heart for so long finally spilled out.Jenna smiled faintly, her voice soft. "Spencer, don't you remember? I've had feelings for you since we were kids. How could I stand to see you suffer?"I was stunned and pleasantly surprised. Had my feelings all this time been correct? It wasn't just me harboring emotions in secret.I bit my lip and responded, "Things from childhood can't be taken so seriously."Jenna laughed again, a teasing glint in her eyes. "Alright, maybe those things don't count anymore. But I'm telling you now, Spencer—I've loved you for thirteen years

    The atmosphere at Brianna's company was great, and I got along well with my colleagues. After a month, I had already become familiar with everyone. My days followed a simple routine, splitting my time between Jenna's house and the office. Spending so much time with Jenna, just the two of us, under the same roof, I started to feel something more than gratitude for her care. One day, I was lost in thought when I unexpectedly bumped into Rebecca outside the company building, shivering in the cold wind. I wasn't sure how long she had been there, but her clothes were too thin for the weather, and she was visibly freezing. I walked past her without acknowledging her. Rebecca's face lit up with a flicker of hope as soon as she saw me. She cautiously approached, her voice barely above a whisper. "Spencer, I got to the bottom of the matter. Have you seen the news? I'm so sorry for everything. It's all my fault that you've been hurt. I owe you, and I'll do anything to make it up to you. Pl

    Brianna stepped in front of Rebecca and motioned for her to leave. "Please, Ms. Little, there's the door."Rebecca's voice was filled with reluctance. "Spencer, I'll come back once I get to the bottom of this."After she was gone, Brianna returned to the room, casting a long, sympathetic look at me. "I can't believe she actually found her way here. I should have been more careful."It hit me then—Brianna had kept me away from the office and taken me out on random errands to keep Rebecca from finding me. "It's fine, Brianna. It's not your fault."Brianna shrugged nonchalantly, teasing Jenna. "Jenna, with your place so well-guarded, Rebecca will never get close. Maybe Spencer should just stay with you for a while."Jenna hadn't taken her eyes off me, and after hearing Brianna's suggestion, she agreed without hesitation.With Brianna's encouragement, I moved into Jenna's house after being discharged from the hospital.Jenna was especially attentive, always making sure I had every

    "Come on. With your size, you're going to be a bodyguard?" I teased her with a sly look.One laugh and a few words later, we arrived at the event.As soon as Brianna walked in, she quickly pulled me aside and whispered, "See that one over there? She's the heiress of Hackett Group, a multinational pharmaceutical company. If you can win her over, we'll secure the project for sure."Just then, an old acquaintance caught her eye. She immediately turned to greet them with a bright smile and muttered under her breath, "Go grab a bite. I'll come find you once I've handled this."Bored, I grabbed a slice of cake and took a few bites. I had just settled down when someone tapped me on the shoulder.Turning around, I was surprised to find it was Hackett Group's heiress—the one Brianna had just pointed out."Why isn't Brianna with you?" she asked, sitting down next to me without hesitation.I blinked, a bit confused, and looked over at Brianna. "You know Brianna?""Don't you remember me?"

    Rebecca was completely taken aback, her shock evident. She clearly hadn't expected me to bring up divorce."Are you out of your mind, Spencer!? It's just cooking a meal; is it really that big of a deal?!"I remained calm, pushing her away just as coldly as she had pushed me earlier."I've left the divorce papers at home. When you have the time, sign them and have your other assistant help me with the process. I won't be bothering you anymore."With that, I turned and walked out, her angry shouts echoing behind me."Spencer! You think I can't live without you? Fine, I'll divorce you! Who would want to put up with your moody, unpredictable temper after I'm gone?!"I went to the office to gather my things. Rebecca had assigned me the lowest position in the company, but still expected me to handle a variety of tasks, big and small. She called it "training" me.I handed in my resignation, which didn't require Rebecca's approval since my position was so low. The HR staff looked at me
