Suzy’s voice was hoarse and dry. “The doctor said… if she doesn’t wake up within twenty-four hours, there’s a risk she might fall into a vegetative state.”Victor seemed to break even further upon hearing that. His grief deepened, and his shoulders shook with every breath.“It’s all my fault,” he choked out. “I didn’t realize how much pressure Sylvia was under at work… She carried everything alone. "That’s how she ended up with severe depression. If only I’d seen it sooner, helped her share the burden… maybe all of this could’ve been avoided.”“Uncle, please don’t blame yourself,” said Aiden gently, placing a supportive hand on his shoulder. “Madam Sylvia wouldn’t want to see you suffering like this.”“No… I’d rather bear all of it for her than see her like this,” Victor sobbed, his voice raw with anguish.Aiden stepped in quickly, trying to steady him. “Uncle, you have to hold it together. If you break down now, what will happen to the company? This is Aunt Sylvia’s legacy—you can

Suzy had found it strange at the time, just as they were about to leave, Ryan pulled her aside and shared a chilling truth in a low voice.“Your mother might not be suffering from depression at all.”Suzy froze, stunned. “That’s impossible. She’s been seeing doctors for years. She was diagnosed with depression and has been on medication for a long time. How could it not be true?”Ryan remained calm. “Based on my questions during the consult and her previous records, I suspect her symptoms were fabricated."She’s likely been medicated under false pretenses, which may have caused some neurological impairment. But psychologically, she’s a remarkably strong woman.“From what you shared, your mother lost her husband early on, yet managed to raise a family and run an entire business on her own. "She’s methodical, resilient, and composed. That doesn’t align with someone suffering from deep clinical depression.“I’m only saying this because you’re a friend of Stellar’s. Whether you believe me

It was obvious that both uncles had come tonight specifically to ask about Suzy.Seeing the concern etched across their faces, Stellar let out a silent sigh. "Uncle, I won’t lie to you, Suzy’s planning to shift her focus to family and business for now. She likely won’t return to acting anytime soon.""That’s impossible!" both uncles blurted out in unison.They knew just how passionate Suzy was about acting. She had only just become popular, and now she was giving it all up to take care of her family? It was unthinkable.Stellar sighed again and led them to the living room. Once they were seated, she began recounting everything that had happened recently in Riverfold."Given her current family situation, she really can’t step away. Between her mother’s health and the family business, she has responsibilities she can’t ignore. "I think the reason she blocked your numbers. was because she didn’t want emotional ties to hold her back. I hope you both can understand that."The two uncl

Just as she opened her mouth to speak, another figure suddenly stepped between them."Stellar, why are you still with him?"The man’s tone was laced with accusation, like he was questioning her loyalty.Stellar’s brows drew together. The moment she looked up and saw Percy, her expression turned icy.She had no desire to get tangled up with him again.Yet he was like a ghost that refused to leave her alone.This time, though, before she could respond, Keith stepped forward and blocked her path. He handed her a business card, voice calm and considerate. "Go ahead. The address is all on here. I’ve got this."Stellar didn’t argue. She gave him a grateful nod and turned to leave."Stellar!" Percy made a move to follow, but Keith quickly stepped in front of him."You really are something else. Stellar rejected you over and over again, and you still cling to her like some mangy mutt. Tell me, do you enjoy being humiliated this much?"He didn’t bother with pleasantries. There was no need

"Why wouldn’t it be appropriate?" Lilian gave her a mischievous look. "It’s not like you’ve admitted you’re seeing anyone, right? So, what’s the harm in meeting a few like-minded new friends?"By the end of that sentence, she didn’t sound guilty at all.In fact, she was looking more and more pleased with herself.Stellar was momentarily speechless.She had no good comeback, so she simply asked, "You’re going too?""Of course! I already cleared it with Nathan. Besides, there’s going to be a crowd—bet a lot of the new students are dying to catch a glimpse of our campus legend. You have to come!"Lilian clung to her arm, swaying it back and forth like a child begging for candy.Stellar gave in with a sigh. "Alright, alright, I’ll go.""Yes!" Lilian punched the air in triumph. "Okay, then I’ll take you for a little styling later—maybe get your makeup done too, dress you up a bit!"But seeing how excited she was, Stellar narrowed her eyes in suspicion. "You’re hiding something, aren’
