They struck her legs and stomach over and over, forcing her to curl up in a corner with her arms over her head.When she spotted an opening, Lily snatched up a volleyball and hurled it at the boy leading the attack. It struck him square in the face."You bitch! You dare hit me?"Furious, he charged toward her and raised his cleated foot, aiming straight for her slender arm.Trapped against the wall with nowhere to escape, Lily could only watch in terror as his foot came down.Before it reached her, someone kicked him aside with tremendous force.The boy whirled around, ready to fight, but the moment he recognized Mason, his

Whenever she refused to cooperate, he threatened Eddie.He hated how jealous and bitter it made him feel, but the tactic worked every time.Under such meticulous care, Lily's complexion gradually improved. She even began putting on weight, and Mason was delighted to see her looking healthier with each passing day. He truly believed he could cure her.But when he took her for another round of medical examinations, the results shattered all his hopes.Despite her improved appearance, Lily's condition hadn't changed at all.Neither the expensive targeted therapies nor the specialized medication had done anything to stop the cancer from spreading. All that treatment hadn't bought her a single extra day.She had less than a month left to live.Mason stood holding the medical report, surrounded by doctors and nurses who kept their heads lowered.
