Chapter 304

When he said the word "friends", it was clearly in quotes. Cynthia knew this—no one in the world would make friends this way.

Ulterior motives like these were only driven by self-interest.

Cynthia suddenly burst into laughter.

"Of course Theo is very important to me! You're ridiculous to think that you can get me a heart. Theo hasn't even managed it yet, but you say you can."

The man took a phone from his pocket, and tapped it a few times. Suddenly, the hospital alarm blared, the sound shrill and ear-piercing.

Cynthia became tense, and her face turned pale. "What did you do?"

"Nothing, just playing with the alarm. Listen to how nervous people outside are."

He stood up, and straightened his coat.

"It seems you truly love Theodore, Miss Zeller. You don’t doubt his sincerity at all. In that case, we can't be friends—though I admire you. Love is more important to you than your own life. It’s commendable. Maybe when you get to the underworld, the King of Hell will show you mercy."
