Lily's POV"Nana Rosa's time is running out," Dr. Philip announced, his words hanging in the air like a death sentence."The cancer has spread aggressively," he explained gently. "We've explored every possible treatment, done everything we can, but unfortunately, it's too late." "We need to perform surgery immediately, but it's expensive. Without it, she'll..." He trailed off, leaving the unspoken consequences hanging."How much?" I asked, desperation clawing at my heart."$5,000,000," Dr. Philip replied gently.$5,000,000? Where on earth would I find that amount? And with such little time, I can't take a loan at this point. We're barely surviving Nana Rosa's frail hand grasped mine."Lily...don't worry," she whispered.“No, there must be something we can do...anything. We can ask Mr Walter to..” “It's no use, Lily, I'm already owing more than I can afford, more than you know,” she whispered, a faint, warm smile spreading across her pale lips.My grip on her hand tightened, desper

Lily's POV "Baby, it's time for bed. Come with me." Kael said. But Ava resisted, wrapping her arms around my neck. "No, I want to stay with Lily." I watched as Ava and Kael engaged in a silent stare-down. Just as it seemed Ava would win, Gabi intervened. "Ava, darling, let's get you to bed. I'll read you a story." Ava's gaze didn't leave Kael's face. "I want Lily!" Gabi's smile faltered, her eyes flashing with jealousy. I quickly intervened, not wanting to be cut up in their drama and destroy my chance of running away. "Hey, Ava, it's okay. Go with your dad." Ava's face scrunched, but she eventually nodded. "Okay, Lily." As Ava left with Kael, Gabi's expression darkened. Her eyes narrowed, her lips compressing into a thin line. I noticed but refused to dwell on it. My mind was already racing with escape plans: find my phone, bag and get out of this mansion. I followed Gabi until we reached the room. "You think you're special, don't you? Kael didn't kill you for tou

Lily's POV “I-It's not what you think…" I stammered, but Kael's laughter cut me off like a knife. "We'll see about that, see you soon, Timothy." Kael countered, pulling me away from Timothy with a force that left me stumbling, my feet struggling to keep pace. Kael dragged me toward his car, shoved me inside, and drove off. "You played your cards well, Lily. You're in deep shit," he sneered. "You're working with Timothy, aren't you?" "No, I'm not. " I recalled how I met Timothy on the plane to Kael, but he didn't listen. "He's not the same person you're looking for, it might be a mix-up. Like you did with me," I added. But Kael cocked his gun, aimed it at my face, and sped off. Kael pulled me out of the limousine and led me toward the mansion. As we stepped inside, I saw Gabi waiting in the foyer, her eyes narrowing into slits as she took in the scene before her. "What is she doing here?" Gabi asked, looking pissed. Kael's smile was cold, his eyes glinting with malice. "That
