Evadne's reason for calling was straightforward: she wanted to know why Percival left Windwatch without telling her.

Eulalia, who was supposed to be in a vegetative state, woke up way sooner than expected, and to top it off, she lost her memory. This amnesia wasn't exactly good news for Evadne.

Can amnesia just erase everything that happened?

Evadne had bribed a nurse, hoping to seize an opportunity, but Percival was always by Eulalia's side, making it impossible for her inside person to even enter the room. She was informed that the patient had already been discharged.

Frustrated and heartbroken, Evadne couldn't understand why her sacrifices led to such a minor impact on Eulalia.

Thinking of that man's methods sent shivers down her spine.

The "kidnapper" had insisted on taking Eulalia largely because of something she had said. That person was Percival's enemy, determined to take anything Percival valued or destroy it if he couldn't have it.

    "Boss, Percival's back to Luminara, and there's still no word on that batch of minerals from Southwater Island. Has it already been moved to Luminara?" A subordinate, glasses with gold frames on the bridge of his nose, stood respectfully next to the sofa, asking the man lounging on it.The man was sprawled out lazily, his long right leg casually resting on the coffee table, holding a tablet in one hand and a cigarette in the other. As he flicked his fingers, a stream of bluish-gray smoke rose slowly, ashes and sparks falling to the floor.Hearing his subordinate, he took a drag from his cigarette, his gaze drifting lazily over.The subordinate immediately clammed up, not daring to even breathe too loud, knowing one look from the man meant 'don't bother me now, or else'.The room fell silent, the man continued to watch his screen as if no one else was there, a video that was an hour long playing.As the video played, bits of sound leaked out, it was the video of him torturing Eulalia.

    Evadne's flight was in the afternoon, and Percival had arranged for a place for her to stay and even sent someone to pick her up from the airport. It was inevitable that Evadne and Eulalia would meet sooner or later in Luminara, which started to make Percival uneasy. He was worried things would once again spiral out of his control.So, as soon as Eulalia woke up at the crack of dawn, he told her that Evadne would be arriving that afternoon. Eulalia paused for a moment, the name "Evadne" sounding vaguely familiar, as if she'd heard it somewhere before."Who's Evadane?" she asked.Seeing her non-reaction, Percival's tense heart relaxed a bit. "I forgot you lost your memory. Evadne is my mom's adopted daughter.""So, she's your sister?""Sort of."Eulalia didn't probe further. "You know, you've never really talked about your family. How are your parents? When was the last time you went home?""Three years ago was the last time.""Three years?" Eulalia frowned slightly, puzzled. "What's t

    Eulalia only knew her stomach was in bad shape, but had no clue it was actually stomach cancer. The cancer came with a side of throat inflammation, making her feel like throwing up every time she took her meds. She'd hold back the urge to puke, but tears would stream down her face anyway.Taking medicine had become torture for Eulalia. She could only manage to eat a light lunch, saving space for the meds."Why do I have to take medicine every day? Can't I just not?" she wondered."No way," Percival shut that down real quick. He was pretty chill about most things, but skipping meds was a hard no.During her hospital stay, Eulalia was rushed into emergency care countless times because of her stomach cancer. Percival was terrified of losing her, and scared she'd remember something painful during an attack.Medication was the only way to keep the cancer cells at bay.Despite her carefulness, Eulalia still got sick. Her stomach hurt badly for a while. She was used to bearing pain, somethin

    Eulalia, trying to ignore the weird feeling in her gut, watched Evadne change her shoes and asked, "Have you had lunch yet?"Evadne, all smiles, said, "Not yet.""Perfect, stay and have lunch with us then."Evadne gladly accepted.Jonas made two cups of juice. Evadne took hers, stuck a straw in it, and began sipping slowly, a smile playing on her lips and an eyebrow raised, eyeing Eulalia over her drink.She looked her up and down, finally chuckling softly while focusing on Eulalia's hands.Eulalia suddenly felt as if she was standing naked under Evadne's scrutiny, an uncomfortable and indefinable feeling, and she didn’t know what to say to make her stop.Deep down, Eulalia wasn’t a fan of Percival's "sister" Evadne. She was sure they had met before she lost her memory, but what had happened between them wasn't simple."Better safe than sorry," she thought, especially now that she couldn't remember whether her past experiences with Evadne were good or bad."Did we get along well befor

    Eulalia thought she was too easy to please. Just the other day, she gave Percival a chance to woo her, and tonight, she was already in bed with him, completely disarmed and defeated. Even though she had amnesia and felt a bit foolish, the feelings buried in her heart weren't something that could be simply forgotten with memory loss. Percival had become like a seed planted in her heart, growing into a towering tree over time. Clinging to his sturdy shoulders, she kept whispering "Percival" with a sweet voice that was utterly devastating. Percival was gentle, treating her like fragile crystal, every move filled with caution, even his breathing was careful and tremulous. Perhaps the unexpected visit from Evadne today scared him, so tonight he was eager to possess Eulalia, as if only by doing so could he feel her presence beside him, ensuring she wouldn't leave him. Percival loved to kiss Eulalia

    "Don't tell me we're so close that I have to tell you everything?" At that moment, Eulalia was like a hedgehog.Trent just laughed, now that Eulalia had lost her memory, she probably didn't even know what was wrong with her.He looked straight into her eyes, unabashed: "I just wanted to check in on you, worried that you might not even know what's wrong with yourself."Eulalia furrowed her brow, not understanding his point. Didn't she know her own body?She was deeply skeptical of his words, her brows furrowed as she was about to speak, but then her phone rang. She flipped it over and saw it was Percival calling.In her new phone, she only had five contacts: Percival, Oliver, Mr. Lee, Ms. Hayak, Ms. Jonas. Percival was the one she contacted the most. She answered the call, her voice soft."Did you take your medicine?"Hearing Percival's voice, the gloom in Eulalia's heart instantly cleared, and she felt much better, her furrowed brow relaxing and her lips curling slightly."I did, just

    Eulalia gently stroked the singed fur of the ragdoll cat, tears streaming down her face uncontrollably. Her gray eyes were filled with moisture, stinging painfully.Her eyes were either unable to cry or unable to stop once they started. Now they seemed almost blind with grief. She tilted her head back, veins bulging in her neck, mouth slightly open and eyes tightly shut as she let out a hoarse, anguished cry.Her choked, raspy voice was broken, like a rusty knife scraping against a whetstone - so harsh and painful to hear that it made one's heart clench.Victor's eyes were red too, but he turned away silently. He couldn't show any weakness, afraid he wouldn't be able to support Eulalia if he did.Kneeling on the ground, Eulalia slowly scattered dirt over Misty's body, burying her until she was no longer visible.

    As much as she wanted to block out the world, cruel voices kept invading Eulalia's ears. Misty wasn't just a cat; she had saved Eulalia's life. They had promised to be together forever. Misty was family, a lifeline in her darkest moments, a light in the shadows.Eulalia's voice was hoarse, her tear-choked words barely intelligible as she called out "Misty" over and over. The pain in her chest was unbearable, desperately needing something to fill the void. Her grip on Victor's shirt loosened as she clutched Misty's collar tightly to her heart."Eulalia," Victor whispered. The girl in his arms was ice-cold, shivering uncontrollably. Her anguished sobs had faded to quiet whimpers.Even after crying her heart out, Eulalia wasn't feeling any better. Her veins were bulging, her temples throbbing. Her body alternated between freezing shivers and feverish heat, her back burning and itching.Victor's heart clenched. He opened his mouth, but no words of comfort came out.Kneeling down, Victor g

    Eulalia's hands trembled as she reached out to touch Misty's wounded body. Her hands came away bloody. Ropes had cut deeply into Misty's limbs, and blood covered the cat's body, tail, paws, and head."Misty..." Eulalia's eyes were terrifyingly red, dry from the intensity of her grief. The pain was so extreme she couldn't even cry.In a daze, Eulalia somehow managed to untie the ropes binding Misty. All she could see were the burn wounds on Misty's skin and the blood oozing from four small punctures in the cat's mouth. Misty's sharpest fangs had been viciously pulled out. How much agony had Misty endured?"Misty, I'm here now. Look at me. Didn't we promise to always be together?" Eulalia's body shook as she cradled the bloodied cat. "I'll cancel all my work... I'll stay by your side from now on. I'll never leave you with anyone else again. Please, just hang on a little longer..."Misty lay in Eulalia's arms, struggling to open her eyes at the sound of Eulalia's voice.It's Eulalia... E

    Barry noticed the collar around the cat's neck and tried to cut it off with a knife, but it wouldn't budge. Frustrated, she gave up—she couldn’t waste time on a collar.Gripping the cat's jaw, she forced its mouth open, grabbing its sharp teeth with pliers. "You want to bite me? I’ll pull out every last tooth and see if you try that again."Misty trembled, lying helpless on the ground, bound and unable to move. After all, it was just a cat—no way to beg for mercy.Barry's eyes darkened, and with a sharp tug, a sickening crack rang out, like bones being torn from flesh. Misty's scream filled the air."Meow..." Blood spilled from the cat's mouth, staining its once-pristine fur. Misty lay there, defeated, and in that moment, all it could think about was Eulalia."I just wanted to spend more time with you... I wanted to see you again…"...After dinner, Eulalia was told to get ready for the next scene. She glanced at the door, feeling uneasy—Jane hadn't returned yet. Eulalia called her, a

    Eulalia took the phone Jane handed her and attached the tracking device to Misty’s collar. “Misty's well-behaved; she won't run off.” “I know, but just in case… too many people dislike me. If they can’t get to me, they might target Misty. A tracker at least adds some safety.” Eulalia focused on the device, missing the brief flicker in Jane’s expression. Jane pressed her lips together, hesitating like she wanted to say something, but held back. “All done,” Eulalia returned the phone, noticing Jane still looked tense. She ruffled her hair. “If something’s on your mind, tell me, don’t bottle it up.” “I…” Jane started, then glanced at Misty in her arms, “I’m fine, really.” “Alright, if you say so.” Eulalia could sense something off, but couldn’t quite place it. Maybe Jane had issues at home these past few days. It wasn’t her place to pry if Jane didn’t want to talk.Just then, Reid called, telling Eulalia to get ready for her scenes. The day was packed with her shoot, and wrap

    Percival’s heart felt like it was being pierced by a thousand arrows at the thought of Eulalia in bed with Victor. It was only 1 a.m. when he glanced at the clock, and he reached under his pillow for the wedding photo of him and Eulalia. In the picture, she smiled cautiously, her dimples soft, eyes gentle. The photo wasn’t big, but he pressed it to his chest alongside the well-worn journal he often read, then lay back down.That night, he didn’t dream. But when he woke, his eyes were damp, his face sticky with tears that left his skin stinging.As a cancer patient, Percival's body was weak, and he often caught colds easily. The open window and a night of cold wind, combined with the emotional breakdown after seeing the picture Victor posted, left him feverish.The housekeeper was the first to notice and rushed to inform Mr. Lee, who promptly called for a doctor. The doctor came, measured Percival's temperature, and set up an IV. But as the doctor tried to insert the needle, he noticed

    Eulalia had never seen a post about herself deleted so quickly before.She sat cradling Misty in one arm, absently fingering the tag on the cat's collar. After a few minutes, her phone buzzed with a text from an unknown number:"Eulalia, I don't want you as a replacement anymore. Stay by my side and I can protect you. Percival is ruthless - if you want a better life, stay far away from that madman."Eulalia frowned as she read the message. Her fingers hovered over the keyboard to reply "Go to hell," but she thought better of it and deleted the draft. There was nothing worth saying to someone like Trent. She blocked the number and set up a custom auto-reply instead.Meanwhile, Trent was anxiously awaiting Eulalia's response. He thought he had made himself clear - surely the small-town girl would get the hint. But after half an hour of silence, doubt crept in. Had she not seen the message? Or was she too afraid to reply?He sent another text:"If you come back to me obediently, I'm will
