"We urgently need O negative blood; the patient is in critical condition. If the blood isn't brought on time, I'm sorry, you're going to lose her," the doctor said."I'm also a possessor of that particular blood type. Can I donate my blood for her?" Claire insisted. However, Brian immediately refused. He couldn't let Claire donate her blood for Mabel. He believed he was the one who put her in this condition and that he should be the one to donate his blood to her."I will be the one to donate my blood to her," Brian said as he followed the doctor into the operating room.

Claire shouted, her voice strained as she struggled to pull her friend back to safety.The air was thick with shock; onlookers stood frozen, eyes wide and mouths agape, unable to process the unfolding drama.

Ruby met his gaze, confusion clouding her expression. “I don’t know, Brian! I haven’t left this room since morning. How would I know?” She quickly threw on her clothes, glancing at her reflection in the mirror, the reality of the situation beginning to sink in.Without another word, Brian stormed out of the room, his thoughts consumed by worry.

They had ventured into untold territories of intimacy, each moment dripping with romance and unspoken promises. As the dawn broke, the world outside was a blur of colors, but within the confines of their room, reality was still suspended in the magic of the night before.“Good morning, Ruby,” Brian whispered, his warm breath brushing against her skin as he pressed his lips softly against hers, lingering just long enough to steal her breath away before kissing her forehead. He rose from the bed, a smile on his face, glancing back at Ruby, who lay peacefully asleep, her hair tousled like a halo around her.He tiptoed into the bathroom to freshen up, excitement bubbling within him as he mentally planned their breakfast. He wanted to make today special for Ruby, to create a memory that would linger long after the sun had set. As he prepared
043. Then you can decide what you want to eat
Brian and Chloe stepped into the living room, their expressions unreadable. The air was thick with a tension that neither could name. Ruby and Claire were already there—Claire immersed in her book, her brows furrowed in focus, while Ruby sat cross-legged on the couch, headphones on, mouthing the lines of her audition script.Claire was the first to look up. Her eyes flickered over Brian and Chloe, searching their faces for answers. There was no relief, no joy, no sorrow—just a blank slate that made it impossible to guess what had happened at the hospital."How is she? Is she okay?" Claire asked, closing her book and setting it aside. Her voice was calm, but there was a slight edge to it, a sharpness that betrayed her concern.Ruby, still engrossed in her script, didn’t even notice Brian’s arrival until he crossed the room. He walked up behind her, slipping his arms around her shoulders. Startled, she turned to look at him, pulling off her headphones."Darling, you’re back," she said,
042. Mabel
“Brian!” The voice called out again, cutting through the stillness of the room.“Wait, I’m coming!” Brian replied, hastily adjusting himself. Ruby, who had been comfortably seated on his lap, stood up, her cheeks flushed as she grabbed a towel to wrap around herself. The soft fabric clung to her curves, but her attention was quickly drawn to the door as Brian opened it to reveal Chloe, standing there with an expression that flickered between hope and dread.“Mabel has woken up!” Chloe shouted, her voice bright with joy, but just as quickly, her eyes dimmed, casting a shadow over her excitement. Brian noticed the abrupt shift, his heart sinking as he took in Chloe’s sudden change in demeanor.“What’s wrong, Chloe?” he asked gently, concern etching lines on his forehead. “I thought you said your sister had just woken up. Why do you look so sad?”“She’s suffering from memory loss,” Chloe admitted, her voice trembling. “The doctor says she has the brain of a child now, and we need to be t
041. Ruby's failed plan
The dim corridor outside the hospital ward was eerily quiet, broken only by the faint hum of fluorescent lights. Ruby stood there, her heart pounding, though not from fear. No, it was anticipation—a cold, calculated anticipation. This time, she would make sure Mabel was gone for good. There would be no mistakes, no loose ends. No one would ever know Mabel had been murdered.She gripped the small vial of poison in her pocket tightly as she took a deep breath. Steeling herself, Ruby pushed open the door to Mabel's room, determined to end the competition for Brian’s affection once and for all. But as she stepped into the room, her eyes widened in shock.The bed was empty. Mabel was gone.“What’s going on?” Ruby whispered, her voice sharp with confusion. Her gaze darted around the room, but there was no sign of the girl she’d seen lying helplessly in that bed just yesterday. The IV stand stood abandoned, and the sterile white sheets were neatly folded, as though no one had ever been here
040. Aisha ambitions
The red droplets falling from Aaron's bloodied fist matched the intensity of his hatred. "Brian, you can take everything else, but I won't let you have her," he snarled at the empty room, his words echoing off the pristine walls of the family estate. But fate, as it often does, had already set its wheels in motion long before this moment of desperation.Earlier that afternoon, the air had been thick with tension in the same room where Aisha sat, her perfectly manicured nails drumming against the mahogany armrest as she voiced her frustrations. "Ever since the party, I haven't heard from Mabel again. Her line isn't going through." She cast a calculating glance between Aunt Shawn and Aaron, her eyes betraying the machinations behind them. "I hope she hasn't changed her mind. I really need her to cause division between her and Ruby."Aaron, who had been standing by the window, turned to face her. The sunlight streaming through the glass caught the sharp angles of his face as he delivered
39. Ruby's plan
Brian sat at his desk, his eyes glued to the laptop screen as his fingers danced over the keyboard. Ruby stood behind him, her hands gently massaging his shoulders. A soft smile played on her lips, though her mind was already racing ahead."I’ve been thinking, Brian," Ruby began, her voice sweet and measured. "You know Claire has that competition coming up. How about enrolling her in a cooking school? She could really improve her skills there. Actually…" She hesitated before adding with a triumphant smile, "I’ve already done it. She’ll stay there until the session is over."Brian’s fingers paused for a brief moment, though his gaze remained fixed on the screen. "Thanks, Ruby," he replied calmly, "but you should have informed her before making that decision. Remember, Claire is older than you. You need her permission before taking such a step."Ruby frowned, her smile faltering. "But she needs it," she pressed, her tone firm.Brian finally turned to look at her, his expression unreadab
38. Ruby's jealousy
Krayon stood frozen, staring at the girl Brian had just introduced as Chloe. Her expression was sharp and unwelcoming. She looked at him like he was something unpleasant stuck to her shoe, her annoyance plain as day. It wasn’t just her glare that unsettled him—it was the way his stomach churned under her scrutiny. Only Chloe’s face had this strange way of making him feel nauseous, like a bad memory resurfacing.His gaze flickered to hers, and in that moment, the memory hit him like a slap. School. He remembered how she had beaten him up, leaving him humiliated and bruised. It all made sense now. Mabel—sweet, calm Mabel—could never have hurt him like that. No, it wasn’t her. It had been Chloe all along."If you're Mabel’s sister, then where is Mabel?" Krayon’s voice broke the tense silence as his eyes darted between Chloe and Brian. He was searching for some kind of explanation, some clue, but neither of them said a word. Their silence felt deliberate, a wall he couldn’t break through.
