A knot of suspicion tightening in her gut, Lucy walked warily toward Cameron's office. She then pushed the door open, instantly putting on a sweet, concerned act. "Hey, Cameron. I was completely out of line last time. How's your stomach? Is it still acting up like before?"Cameron stared at Lucy, who was now clutching his arm, with an icy gaze. He knew, without a doubt, that her feigned remorse was just a means to an end. He simply walked to his desk, took a seat, and began to slurp down the chicken noodle soup Bianca had delivered that morning.Lucy stared at Cameron in utter disbelief, exclaiming, "You're actually eating, Cameron! Could it be that the woman I saw back at your place is your girlfriend? Have you finally found your miracle cure, then?"Though she was eyeing him with a gossipy glint, Lucy's mind was racing with calculations.

Give me the car keys!"She then, with Sebastian's help, got Melanie settled in the car before rushing her to the hospital.…Bianca paced restlessly outside

In the following two weeks, Sebastian and Christian appeared at Bianca's house every single day—right on schedule—and wouldn't budge no matter how much she tried to get rid of them.Christian, day after day, mimicked grown-ups, presenting Bianca with a fresh assortment of small gifts, all of which she promptly tossed into the bin. Sebastian, for his part, faithfully brought three meals a day, and the pair even squabbled over who got to dispose of Bianca's rubbish bags left outside the door.…Upon watching Sebastian and Christian's unvarying daily routine, Lucy's heart was green with envy over Sebastian's complete devotion to Bianca. She became convinced that Bianca had feigned her demise specifically to rekindle Sebastian's love.That day, a heavy, insistent knocking rattled the door. Bianca, thoroughly exasperated, yanked it open. She kept her head down and eyes closed, snapping, "What is it going to take for you to finally leave me alone, Sebastian?"Lucy let out a cold snort,

In the past six months, Bianca was constantly by Melanie's side, sharing her innermost thoughts and feelings. She would tenderly wipe Melanie's face every morning, dedicating herself to her care with utmost diligence and caution.On the other hand, Sebastian and Christian concocted every flimsy excuse imaginable to appear at Bianca's doorstep. Sebastian, in a desperate bid for Bianca's forgiveness, even spent an entire day in the biting cold of December, kneeling in the snow, barely surviving the cold.Bianca, however, simply looked on with a chilling indifference.Meanwhile, Christian appeared each day with a different bouquet of flowers for Bianca, having even taught himself how to bake cakes.
