7 PM, Airport.The waiting lounge was eerily quiet. Phoebe sat on the spacious sofa, waiting for her flight."Miss, it's time to board," her subordinate gently reminded her, snapping her out of her daze."Alright," she replied with a faint, stiff smile.Instinctively, she turned to glance at the empty waiting lounge.

The nurses froze, startled by his thunderous voice, their words tumbling out in fragments."I said, where is the woman from this room?" he repeated, his face dark with anger."S-sir, we didn't notice..." one nurse stammered, trembling at his fury."Damn it! Are you all useless? How could you not notice her leaving?"***The air was heavy with tension, mingled with the pungent smell of disinfectant that permeated the hospital corridors.Phoebe wandered aimlessly through the hallways, her mind a fog of confusion.

"Oh, you're not completely clueless, are you? I didn't even say it, and you already guessed?" Melissa smirked, her expression brimming with pride.

Phoebe's voice trembled, her body swaying unsteadily. Her lips had turned pale, drained of all color.She could barely believe the words coming from Melissa's mouth.Her brother's death… was Melissa's doing?What a horrifying truth.Did Melissa not have family? Did she not understand the pain of losing a loved one?How could someone be so cruel?"The only mistake was that he was your brother! If you want to blame someone, blame yourself!

Alexander's voice was gritted, his words laced with frustration, and his eyes darkened with a foreboding storm.Phoebe stared at him, her eyes reddened, tears welling up until they spilled down her pale cheeks."Ruthless? Do you even know what she did to me?" Phoebe's voice trembled with bitterness as she pointed an accusing finger at Melissa, her sorrow unmistakable.The sight of Phoebe's tears twisted Alexander's heart painfully. He wanted to reach out, to wipe them away, but his hand froze mid-air. Instead, the words that escaped his lips were colder and harsher.Was this still the Phoebe he once loved?Had he spoiled her too much? Had his care turned her into this unreasonable, cruel, and venomous person?Or had he misjudged her all along? Was this who she truly was?A bitter sneer crept into his thoughts. Women—so unfathomable, so deceitful. And the type of woman Alexander despised the most was one who played mind games with him."She's in this st
