After the blood transfusion was complete, Lilian stood up quickly, only to almost fall over when her vision suddenly turned dark.A hand caught her wrist, and Eugene glanced nervously at her. In the next second, his voice sounded in her ears. "Go home and get some rest. I'm going to stay behind and keep Aurie company."Lilian yanked her hand out of Eugene's grasp, her face full of scorn. She said nothing, simply walking out, her legs shaking.As she stood in the hospital corridor and stared at the date displayed on the wall calendar, her eyes suddenly widened.Today was the day she would get her college acceptance letter!In her past life, she had felt terribly weak after donating blood to Aurelie, so she had asked Eugene to get her acceptance letter in her stead.However, he hadn't brought the letter back despite a day of waiting.When she asked about it again, Eugene had told her impatiently, "You weren't accepted."Not long after that, she had heard news that Aurelie had bee

Eugene's expression wavered slightly. He shouted angrily, looking flustered, "How utterly ridiculous! Get out right now. I want to see your resignation letter by tomorrow."Lilian stared mockingly at him before slamming the office door behind her.She would figure this out herself. Whether it was proving her innocence or getting back the acceptance letter, she wasn't going to give up on either of them.At the stairwell, she bumped right into Aurelie.Aurelie looked at her smugly and said, "Medical malpractice is a serious matter. Once you're fired, that stain will stay on your record forever. So what if you got into college?"Lilian glared resentfully at her. "Why are you doing this to me? Ever since you came to—"Before she could finish, Aurelie grabbed her by the wrist and glared hatefully at her before pushing her toward the stairs. "Because I want to destroy you," she hissed. "I want to take your place in college, further my education, and stand a head above the rest. I wan

Lilian didn't know how long she had been unconscious for. By the time she woke up, it was already dark outside.Eugene's irritated voice carried through the door. "Your condition is stable now, Aurelie. You don't require immediate surgery. Besides, Lilian's in no condition to donate blood to you, and the hospital blood bank doesn't have enough…"Aurelie looked aggrievedly at Eugene and said in a choked voice, "I'm about to go to college. Who's going to take care of me once I leave your side? If I don't go through with the surgery as soon as possible, what happens if I faint from anemia again?"She carefully held Eugene's hand and continued, "You're a doctor, aren't you? Even if something happens to Lilian, she'll definitely be fine with you by her side, unlike me…"Eugene pursed his lips and stared hesitantly at Aurelie. Finally, he nodded. "Alright."Lilian sobbed in grief at his answer. Eugene had chosen Aurelie yet again.Although she already knew things would end up like this

Lilian tossed and turned all night, unable to sleep. Suddenly, she heard a noise from outside. "Not here. If Eugene finds out, we'll both be done for."At the mention of Eugene's name, Lilian forced her frail body out of bed.She carefully opened the door with the voice recorder in hand to see Aurelie and another man walk into the hospital room next door.She plucked up the nerve to follow them and carefully hid behind the door.The man was pressing Aurelie into the bed. "I've missed you so much. When are you going to leave Eugene? You're my wife, you know. Do you know how terrible I feel every time I think of you and him together?"Aurelie replied, "Don't leave any marks. I have surgery tomorrow. Once Lilian is dead, everything that belongs to Eugene will be ours."I even obtained Lilian's college acceptance letter. When the time comes and I attend college under her name, people will think I'm smart too. We won't have to live hard lives like before anymore."Lilian's eyes wid

After confirming that Lilian wasn't at the hospital, Eugene immediately rode his bicycle back home.As soon as he opened the front door, he heard Olivia complaining."I was finally looking forward to getting a grandson five years after you married Lilian, but that bitch didn't even manage to carry the child to term. I was against the marriage in the first place, but you insisted on marrying her, saying that you liked her."Well, what now? Aurelie still stole your heart anyway. Why not just divorce Lilian now? You're already living with Aurelie at any rate. It's as good as having married her."Eugene stared at her, clenching his fists in unease.He had truly liked Lilian in the beginning. That was why he agreed to let her marry him in order to repay him for saving her life.They had been a loving couple for a long time after their marriage. Back then, he hadn't been able to stop thinking about her, and he had felt like the happiest person in the world.However, Aurelie's reappear
