"Mhm."

"Did you not refuse her?" Sharon asked.

"If I refused Victoria outright," Thomas said calmly, "she would easily suspect I don't want to help her—that I'm on your side."

"But isn't this way too early? Would Callum actually let her go out this early?" she asked.

"I don't know," Thomas replied.

Sharon was completely speechless.

Since when had Victoria changed her persona and started causing trouble like this?

Going out in the middle of the night just to watch a sunrise—who could even

    It gave off the sense of two people carefully avoiding suspicion.Dr. Sandler stole a glance at Thomas, unsure what had happened between the two of them.He went to the next room and called Sharon out. She emerged quickly, her gaze skimming over Thomas's face before calmly sliding away."It's getting late. You should head home and rest."Dr. Sandler had driven over on his own and wasn't headed the same way as Thomas, so he said a quick goodbye to the two of them and left.Sharon turned to Thomas. "Get in. I'll drive you back."Thomas glanced at her, then pulled open the passenger door.Neither of them spoke the whole ride. The car was dead silent.Thomas's gaze dimmed slightly. It hadn't used to be like this.In the past, after every session, Sharon would sit beside him and wait for him to wake, then hand him a cup of warm water. She'd ask about his sleep, how he was feeling. On the drive back, she'd bring up some amusing thing that had happened recently.But this time, she h

    Once Thomas was settled in, Wendy and John got ready to leave.Wendy said to Thomas, "Thomas, I've put everything away for you. I checked the fridge myself, so if anything's missing, just let me know.""Mm. Thanks," Thomas said."Sharon says she wants you at the clinic tomorrow night at eight for your treatment," Wendy added."Fine."Wendy and John didn't linger. They left soon after.Once the door closed, the apartment fell completely silent.Thomas stood in the middle of the living room for a few seconds, then walked slowly to the refrigerator and pulled the door open.Everything inside was arranged in neat rows, each shelf holding a few ingredients, with cream-colored labels in Sharon's neat handwriting stuck beside them.Milk, eggs, vegetables, and a few ready-to-heat staples.The labels noted things to watch for and use-by dates in black ink.Thomas looked for a moment, then shut the fridge and walked back to the living room.The apartment wasn't large—three bedrooms a

    By the time Wendy and John arrived at Thomas's ward, the doctor had already let Thomas know he was being discharged.He stood by the window, dressed simply in a white shirt and black trousers, his tall frame straight and lean.Sunlight streamed in through the window, wrapping him in a thin haze of light that made him look almost unreal.Every time Wendy saw Thomas's face, she couldn't help marveling at how unfairly generous fate had been to him.Thomas was ridiculously good-looking. No wonder Sharon had fallen for him.At the sound of footsteps, his dark eyes settled heavily on Wendy.When he spotted John trailing in behind her, his lips pressed thin, his voice giving nothing away."Sharon didn't come?"His eyes were perfectly calm, and yet something about them carried an odd, weighty pressure that left Wendy feeling entirely on edge.She found herself thinking, Thomas looked barely old enough to be an adult. How did he carry himself with this much presence?She cleared her t

    Thomas calmly showed Julliard the door. "If there's nothing else, Julliard, I need to rest. After all..."He lifted a hand to press at his temple, the corner of his mouth curling into a faint, almost-there smile. "When Sharon comes to see me tomorrow, I'll need to be in top form to greet her. Don't you think?"Julliard's eyes reddened slightly; whether from anger or something else, it was hard to say. He stared Thomas down for a few seconds, then turned and walked toward the door without a word, his face blank.Just as his hand touched the handle, he stopped."Thomas." He didn't turn around, his voice cold. "You'd better pray you get to keep being this shameless forever."With that, he left without another word.The room fell quiet again.Thomas stayed sitting up, the amusement in his eyes fading bit by bit until nothing remained but a deep, cold darkness.His gaze drifted to the jacket Sharon had forgotten to take with her.A faint fragrance still clung to it.Without quite

    Julliard hadn't expected Thomas to be this cold-blooded.Resentment and fury surfaced in his eyes. "You really are an ungrateful piece of work. Sharon's been so good to you, and this is how you treat her?"Thomas raised an eyebrow. "Ungrateful? If I remember right, I'm the one who did her a favor."Oh, and I nearly forgot, it was you who personally handed me the opportunity to put her in my debt in the first place. The fact that she's this good to me now, isn't that built entirely on that debt?"He paused, a faint, cold smile crossing his handsome face."Julliard, do I strike you as the type who enjoys helping people out of the goodness of my heart? Every bit of help I give comes with a price. "I saved her. In exchange, she treats me. That's about as fair a trade as it gets."Julliard's voice rose in anger. "If it's really just about your treatment, why bother fighting me for her attention and care?"Thomas's voice stayed level, laced with cold logic. "You're missing something

    Julliard glared at Thomas, unblinking. "So you admit it?!"Thomas raised an eyebrow, tossing the question right back. "Hm? What's there not to admit?"Julliard hadn't expected Thomas to be this brazen about it.His fists clenched. "Thomas, if you've actually got the nerve, say all this to Sharon's face."Thomas leaned back against the headboard, lazy and relaxed, a faintly amused look on his face."If I said any of this in front of her, do you think she'd still care about me the way she does? Do you take everyone for a fool? Why would I give up a good thing to go looking for trouble?"For a moment, Julliard found himself with nothing to say.He was right. Even if Thomas really had done it on purpose, there was no way he'd ever admit as much to Sharon."So what," Julliard said coldly. "You're some nobody with no background, and you think you can compete with me for Sharon? If you want to live off a woman, you'd better make sure you're worth the trouble first."Thomas laughed so

    "You have your position, and I understand that. I'm not blaming you," Sharon said quietly, her expression calm. "Julliard, I have something else to do. Goodbye.""Sharon—"Julliard tried to speak, but she didn't give him the chance. Without a word, she turned and walked away, pulling Wendy along w

    Meanwhile, in the private room, Nate was gesturing wildly as he rambled off to Julliard and Kelly."I knew it! She had time to sneak off with some random dude, but not enough to make the medicinal soup for you. Kelly, just wait—Carter's not going to let that housewife off easy."Kelly opened her mo

    Carter had just finished a meeting. As he glanced at his phone and saw the missed call, his gaze deepened, turning unreadable.Nate, smug as ever, leaned over with a smirk. "Didn't I tell you? Ignore Sharon for a few days, and she'll come crawling back."He chuckled softly, pleased with himself. "

    Nate scoffed. "Kelly will tell us the truth, whether you pushed her down the stairs."Theo added, "Mom, if you don't apologize to Kelly this time, I'm never going to forgive you."Before, Sharon would have panicked and tried to coax him, done whatever it took to make it right.But now, she only g
