Celeste says: Théo described the room. I understood what it needed.

He murmured, "She's just lying there anyway, like she's already gone, not using her eyes. Might as well give them to someone who really needs them." A shadow of pity passed over the doctor's face as he said, "But… What if Ms. Yocelyn Carden wakes up one day?" "Then we'll cross that bridge when we get to it." In that instant, it hit me like a ton of bricks. Was Samuel planning to give my cornea to Amelia? Was he willing to leave me blind? I was rooted to the spot, my mind reeling, as I slowly backed away from Samuel. Watching them together, so lovey-dovey, a wave of icy dread spread through me.

Darius who was the leader of their organization started to raise his voice. “Sorry for calling you all of a sudden. However, as members of the Starlight organization, we must fulfill our obligations to fulfill our duty to protect our citizens. I hope you can carry out your duties as professionals well.” It turned out that Lux and other friends were one of the Starlight organizations that were very rarely known by others. Their job is to protect others and help them. The organization comes from the government, the job is almost similar to the police. However, Starlight is an organization that has a special task. The Starlight members consist of professional members who have been rigorously tr
