I suddenly felt a sense of satisfaction. Then, the girl's mother looked around. When she found that no one was around, she picked up the little girl and ran. As she drew her distance away from me, I heard her telling the girl not to do such dangerous things again. She never gave me a single glance. I lay on the ground, feeling the life drain away from my body. Several people passed by. They shook their heads and sighed. I heard the clicking of camera shutters, but no one called the ambulance.

I wandered the streets like a lost soul, walking until darkness fell before finally heading home. The house was empty; my husband, Brian Stanton, hadn't returned. As I was changing out of my shoes, I found myself walking toward his study, drawn by some strange impulse. He usually never allowed me inside, and true to my word, I hadn't set foot in there for five years. But this time, the door was unlocked. I pushed it open.

"No… Emma, please don’t do anything brash. I was wrong, I really was. If you go through with this, you’ll get hurt, and it could… it could…" "Kill me on the operating table, right?

The next day, I went to the hospital to prepare for the procedure. When Noah learned about this, he wanted to fly out to stop me. But before he could act, he was promptly detained. Jill’s family—her parents, brother, and younger brother—showed up at Noah’s company and unfurled a long banner with the caption: [Noah Lester, CEO of Lest

"Honey," I cried out aggrievedly. When Cassidy saw Caspian, she started crying even louder. "Daddy… I'm scared." Jayden heard how I addressed Caspian and looked at me in disbelief.

I caught a glimpse of Mom's and Dad's stunned expressions, Kendra's pale face, and Cody's panicked eyes. "Three years ago, I left home to work on a national defense research project," I continued. My tone was calm, though inside, I was anything but. "But when I came back, I discovered my wife had a child with my brother. That little girl is already two years old."

It took me a month to adjust to life there, and half a year to truly integrate into the local medical community. At first, they were dismissive of me as just another unfamiliar face. But after a few joint surgical training sessions, they began to see me differently. During my free time, I also started exercising to regain my strength.
