Troy stares at the woman in front of him coldly, and pushes her away with all his strength.
"How did you become like this?"
Mia falls to the ground, and the cold floor makes her heart sting and she suddenly cries, "How? Don’t
you know best?"
She crawls up and squats in front of him again, with crystal tears in her eyes, "I knew it, whatever
method I take, you are not coming back to me…"
"Then why did you use such a despicable means?"
"I did it not because I want to make you marry me. I knew it was impossible."
"What do you want then?!"
"I want to be your woman for once." She looks at him with tears, "Just that simple."
Influenced by the drug, Troy couldn’t get up at all. His veins protrude all over his body, and he is still
resisting her desire.
Mia kisses his lips, his forehead, his alar, and her heart is torn apart every time she kisses him. Troy
shows her with consciousness that even if he has to endure it to death, he will not touch her a single
bit.
Finally, she gives up and faints in his arms.
Troy's phone is left in the car. He staggers to his feet and moves step by step towards the landline
phone in the living room. He dials a set of numbers and says with difficulty, "Come to Mia’s place."
Fifteen minutes later, Robert arrives in a hurry, and as soon as he breaks into the living room, he is
shocked by what he sees in front of him.
"Mr. Troy, what happened?"
"To the hospital, hurry."
When they get to the hospital, Mia is sent to the emergency room, but when Troy comes out after
detoxicating, she hasn’t come out yet.
"Why does it take so long?"
Troy slightly frowns and asks. Robert shakes his head, "I don’t know."
With a bang, he slams his fist on the wall, "This woman, what should I do with her!"
"Just treat her cruelly, and don't care about her at all. Let’s see what she is going to do then."
"If it weren't for her parents' sake, I wouldn't care about her anymore."
"But you can't take care of her for the rest of your life! She always has chest tightness, and who knows
when she will get better."
"There must be a way to heal it."
The door of the emergency room is opened, a doctor walks out, and they hurry forward.
"How is it?"
"She is stable now. But remember not to let her take medicine indiscriminately ever."
"Taking medicine indiscriminately?" Troy is confused, "What medicine did she take indiscriminately?"
"Probably some anti-chest tightness medicine."
Robert interrupts immediately, "She has chest tightness. Those medicines are prescribed by
professional doctors."
"From the results of our examination, the patient has no problems with her chest and she is healthy."
The atmosphere suddenly gets tense, and Troy's expression is extremely complicated.
"Did you make a mistake? You said that the lady lying inside is healthy?"
"Yes." The doctor nods, "If you can’t trust our examination results, you can recheck in another hospital."
"But she did have a history of chest tightness, and she went to many countries for treatment."
"Then there’s only one possible explanation."
Troy has calmed down a lot, "What?"
"The patient had this symptom before, but later she recovered under the treatment of medicine, but the
patient was afraid of recurrence, so she hasn’t stopped the medicine."
"No way, she…"
"Okay, I understand."
Troy nods and prevents Robert from probing.
"Mr. Troy, why don't you let me ask? The doctor doesn't understand the situation at all. Mia always has
the symptom. How could she keep taking the medication because she is afraid of recurrence?"
"Have you never thought that she did it on purpose?"
Robert is stunned for a while before he says, "You mean, every time Mia gets sick in front of you, she is
just pretending?"
"About this, you can ask her later. She knows best."
Standing in front of the VIP ward, Troy recalls what happened in the past few years, and his heart is
filled with anger.
He pushes the door in and Mia is already awake. Her eyes flicker when she sees him.
"How long has it been since the last time I took you for a review?" He asks calmly.
"Almost a year." she replies in a low voice.
"Alright, I will let Robert book the tickets and take you to America for a review tomorrow."
"No need…"
Mia hurriedly stops him. Seeing that his eyes are different, she explains with a guilty conscience, "I
don’t feel well recently. Just wait for a few days."
"Then don’t go to the U.S. We can send for Mr. Peter to review you."
"Troy, don’t you hate me now? Why do you care about me so much?"
"I care about you not because of love. It’s just my responsibility to do so." Troy takes out Robert’s
phone and is about to call Peter.
"Don’t call him."
Mia reaches out to stop him, "I feel much better lately."
"Have you felt better lately, or have you felt better since long ago?" He asks in return, and his eyes get
darker and chilling.
"I…"
"A lie cannot last forever. It will be self-exposed one day."
Troy squeezes her chin angrily, "In order to keep a loveless marriage, you even pretended to be ill in
front of me again and again, watching me put those medicines into your mouth, do you feel that
happiness is close?"
Mia bursts into tears instantly, but she doesn’t make any explanations.
Troy releases her chin and sneers as if in relief, "Very well, you have worn out all my sympathy and
guilt for you. Starting today, I don’t want to see you anymore!"
He walks resolutely out of the hospital, Robert has already driven his car from Mia’s place. After getting
in the car, he remembers that he hasn’t called Karin yet.
He hurries to take out his phone, and finds that there are more than 20 missed calls, most of which are
from her.
He pats his forehead frustratedly, and quickly calls back full of regret.
The phone rings for a long time and no one answers. He keeps calling while driving. Until the car
reaches the top of the mountain, still no one answers.
He rushes into Ziteng Garden anxiously, and when he sees the person swaying on the swing, he finally
felt relieved.
"Karin."
He walks to her hurriedly and grabs her into his arms, "I was scared to death. Did you lose your
phone?"
"No."
"Then why didn’t you pick up?"
Karin lifts her chin, blinks her shiny eyes and says, "Why is it okay for you to not answer my phone, but
I have to answer yours immediately?"
He is stunned for a while and says with guilt, "Sorry. Something happened tonight. My mind was too
messy and I forgot."
He forgot…
The man who keeps saying that he loves her could easily forget her.
She suddenly feels sad and jumps off the swing. She walks inside the house without looking back.
Troy knows that she is angry. He follows her back and explains cautiously, "Mia suddenly fainted, so I
sent her to the hospital. I didn’t realize that my phone was left in the car until I came out. If you are
really angry, you can hit me and scold me. As long as it makes you feel better, it doesn’t matter how
you want to torture me."
He doesn’t tell her what happened before Mia fainted because he doesn’t want her to feel bothered
even more.
"Don’t you know I am waiting for you?"
Karin turns her head and questions him. She is not asking him to stay with her all the time, she just
hopes that he could call her and let her know when he comes back late, so that she wouldn't have to
wait until midnight like a fool.
"I know. That’s why I blame myself so bad."
Troy hugs her tenderly in distress from behind, "It's all my fault. Everything is my fault. Will you forgive
me?"
She is silent, and he says, "How about I facing the wall and reflecting on myself?"
"Was Mia ill again?"
Karin turns around and asks with resignation.
"Yes."
"When will this end? Do we have to live in her shadow?"
"We won’t." Troy looks at her with certainty, "It’s over now."
"What do you mean?"
