"What is it?" she asked, her voice calm but distant.Mia's eyes narrowed. "What's wrong? You just walked out like that without saying a word."Lily's expression was guarded. "I need some alone time, Mia. That's all."Mia's face twisted in frustration. "Lily Everhart!" she shouted, her voice echoing down the hallway. "Stop right there!"Lily's eyes flashed with annoyance, but she didn't move.Mia's voice was fierce. "Stop running from your emotions, Lily. Tell me what happened. I need to know everything. Everything means everything."Lily's gaze locked onto Mia's, a mix of emotions swirling in her eyes. For a moment, it seemed like she might open up, but then her mask slipped back into place.

Lewis entered his mother's room, the soft glow of the bedside lamp casting a warm light on Lauren's peaceful face. She lay sleeping, her chest rising and falling with each gentle breath. The sedative administered by Nurse Bella had taken effect, calming her agitation and allowing her to rest.Lewis signaled to the nurse, who nodded understandingly and quietly left the room, leaving him alone with his mother. He sat down beside Lauren, taking her hand in his. Her fingers felt fragile and delicate in his grasp, a poignant reminder of the frailty of her condition.As he held her hand, Lewis's mind began to wander back to the past. He remembered the stories his father had told him about Lauren's departure, about how Albert had forced her to leave when Lewis was just a month old. Albert had arranged a marriage between Lauren and another wealthy family, hoping to solidify their business ties. But Lauren's condition, which made it impossible for her to become pregnant, had become a point of

Ethan stood in the conference room, flipping through the new product materials his team had prepared. His eyes scanned the advertisements and posters, but his expression quickly turned dissatisfied. "I don't like these models," he said, his voice firm. "They look so ordinary. Why would people buy our product to see them?"The production manager, who had been waiting for feedback, spoke up. "We tried to get some of the top models, but they're all busy right now. It's hard to get their dates, especially given our company's current... situation."Ethan's gaze snapped up, and he locked eyes with the manager. The unspoken truth hung in the air, and Ethan's face fell as reality hit him. He sighed, his shoulders slumping slightly as the weight of his company's struggles bore down on him. The manager looked down, avoiding eye contact, as if uncomfortable with the awkward silence that followed.Ethan's gaze shifted to his assistant, Rachel, his eyes narrowing in annoyance. "Why is Lily not her

Ethan rushed through the hospital corridors, his heart racing with worry. He stopped at the nurse's station, out of breath. "I'm here to see Sarah Mitchell," he said, his voice urgent.The nurse nodded sympathetically. "Room 304, but Dr. Carson would like to speak with you first. Follow me, please."She led him to a cabin a few doors down, knocked briefly, and then opened the door. "Dr. Carson, Ethan is here to see Sarah Mitchell."Dr. Carson looked up from the files on his desk, his expression serious. "Ah, Ethan, thank you for coming. Please, have a seat."His heart raced as he replayed the doctor's words in his mind. Panic surged within him, twisting his stomach into knots. He felt trapped in a nightmare, one where he couldn’t wake up.“Mr. Gray, I understand this is a difficult time for you,” she said gently, her voice calm yet firm. “I want to assure you that we’re doing everything we can for Sarah.”Ethan leaned forward, desperation clawing at his throat. “What do you mean?
