As Annie wiped away her tears, she inched closer to Carl, her gaze warning the two men to remember whose woman she was.The two men felt their breath catch in their throats and a chill run down their spines as they recalled their companion lying unconscious in a hospital bed. They would rather die than cross Carl Grey, as their lives would be worse than death.With no other choice, they bowed their heads and apologized, "We're sorry, Ms. Lacey. We were drunk and let our desires get the better of us. Please forgive us.""Forgive you?" Renee scoffed coldly. "If I forgive you today, you'll just think you can get away with it. And who knows who your next victim will be? What happened today is your own doing. You chose to believe the wrong words, and now you're paying the price."Her words were laced with sarcasm, causing Annie's face to tighten in barely concealed anger, though she didn't dare speak out. The two desperate men, realizing their careers were on the line, ignored the polic

She didn't blame Linda for her concerns."Travis, the weather has been quite unpredictable lately. Linda hasn't been feeling well. You should go check on her," Renee suggested, having already thought up an excuse.Travis looked at her with a wry smile. "Alright, I'll head out then.""Take care."After Travis left, Renee became aware of an unpleasant taste in her mouth. The lingering alcohol mixed with the rice pudding nearly made her gag. Despite changing into a hospital gown, the smell of spilled food and drink from earlier was becoming unbearable.Fortunately, she was familiar with the layout of this hospital from previous visits. Renee carefully got out of bed, took a couple of steps forward until she felt the wardrobe door, and opened it to find the clothes Susanne had brought her. She then made her way to the adjoining bathroom.Turning on the shower, she smoothed her hair and bent down, intending to wash it first. But due to her condition, it proved difficult.As she reach

Renee wasn't surprised by this turn of events. After all, she had lived through it before in her past life. But going through it again brought her pain and sorrow.She had always tried to choose different paths, yet fate and power still seemed to haunt her like ghosts, controlling her every move.Renee pulled the comforter over herself, not wanting to deal with Carl any longer.Carl left the hospital room and made his way to the designated smoking area, his face expressionless. He took out a cigarette and tapped it thoughtfully against the pack.Before he could light it, Jackson approached."Mr. Grey, we've made progress on your request to investigate Ms. Lacey and Ms. Simmons," Jackson said, handing over a file.Holding the cigarette between his fingers, Carl opened the file.Jackson reported,"These are Ms. Simmons' competition designs submitted to the university, and behind are her previous designs."The styles were completely different.Jackson pointed to the submission dat

She raised her voice slightly. "I've also been accepted for an internship at Mandy Xander's studio," she said.Renee was momentarily stunned.Dahlia jumped up. "How is that possible? At least Renee and Annie got into Mandy's studio through the competition. How did you manage to get in?"Wendy shrank back, appearing hurt and scared, fidgeting with her skirt."I... I just happened to have this opportunity. I thought I'd give it a try, and surprisingly, I succeeded.""Renee, please don't be angry, okay?"Wendy cried softly, like a delicate white flower in the rain.Sandy glared at her. "Wendy! Stop talking! Didn't you hear what the doctor just said? Renee can't get emotionally worked up. Are you deliberately trying to upset her by saying these things now?"Wendy whimpered. "I really just got lucky, so I didn't have to work as hard as Renee. When Renee's eyes get better, we can work together. Isn't that great?"Got lucky? Didn't have to work as hard as Renee? When Renee's eyes get

She couldn't accept it!Wendy acted as though she was trying to stand up, but halfway through, she swayed unsteadily and fell towards Carl.Carl took a step back, still holding Renee.Wendy ended up sprawled at their feet, looking disheveled.At this point, most people wouldn't dare to push their luck further, even if they fainted.But Wendy wasn't like most people. She tremblingly reached out and grabbed Carl's pant leg.Her upper body was tilted just enough to reveal what lay beneath her soaked clothes.She made no attempt to cover herself as she looked up at Carl pitifully. "Mr. Grey, I was halfway back when I got worried about Renee's safety, so I returned. I saw her standing by the lake and didn't want to startle her with my voice, so I approached quietly. Who knew that just as I was about to grab her, I would lose my balance and fall into the lake?""Mr. Grey, blame me if you must. It's my fault. I nearly frightened Renee."She gazed at Carl with tear-filled eyes, comple
