Madeline's face changed. First, she looked at Sebastian in a panic, then turned to Aurora and stammered, "What truth? What does your mother's death have to do with me? I don’t know... I know nothing..."

Aurora sneered and said, "You don’t know? Then we have nothing to talk about. Someone, escort Lady Madeline out!"

Immediately, a servant came in and pulled Madeline away. This was no longer Madeline’s house, but Aurora's. When she said for Madeline to leave, no one would defy her order.

Madeline struggled and cried out, "Wait! Let go of my daughter!"

"I said I would release her, but only if you tell me the truth."

Madeline immediately fell silent. Aurora lost her patience and commanded, "Get her out!"

The servant dragged Madeline towards the door. Just as they were about to exit, Madeline suddenly broke free, ran back, and threw herself at Aurora's feet, yelling, "I’ll tell! I’ll tell! Just let her go!"

Aurora coldly sat back down on the sofa and demanded, "Speak! What exactly is the t

    Eulalia was pregnant, and Percival was completely unprepared. He had taken precautions every time—how could Eulalia possibly be pregnant?Where had he gone wrong? Percival calculated the time; during that period, Eulalia had always been by his side, without any chance to go out alone. The only time she went out was to the hospital, and he had even had someone follow her then.Leaning his head against the wall, Percival thought, Eulalia cannot have this child, neither from the perspective of her health nor the state of their relationship.Thinking of the child that was about to be terminated, Percival’s eyes reddened, his heart twisted in agony, pain making it hard to breathe.Mr. Brooks also learned of Eulalia’s pregnancy. He looked at Percival and asked sternly, "Do you want this child?""I can't keep it." It wasn't a question of desire but of necessity."Her body can’t handle the pregnancy, can it?"If they decided to keep the child, Eulalia might pay with her life."How will you te

    Eulalia stood silently, tears streaming down her face uncontrollably. "Why are you treating me like this?""I don't want to, but I have to do this to keep you," he said.Eulalia knew he was determined to terminate the pregnancy. Her emotions fluctuated rapidly, her complexion growing worse."What if I stay by your side obediently?" she asked hoarsely. "Can we keep the baby?"Percival shook his head, silently mouthing "No."This child was hers, a life within her, her solace. Eulalia couldn't understand why Percival would rather adopt from an orphanage than have her bear their child. Did he despise her that much?Eulalia's gaze drifted to the corridor outside and the windows of the hospital room. Percival immediately understood her thoughts from her actions."We're on the twelfth floor; you can't escape. I'll have someone watch you until you go through with the abortion," he declared.Such heartless words from a man who once claimed to love her more than his own life—how ridiculous.The

    "Ms. Hayak..." As soon as Eulalia spoke, tears began to roll down her cheeks, her first step in seeking Ms. Hayak's help was to gain her sympathy.Eulalia was beautiful, and her illness made her tears even more pitiable, like raindrops on pear blossoms, eliciting compassion. Ms. Hayak, moved and anxious, quickly fetched some tissues to wipe Eulalia’s tears."Why are you crying?" Ms. Hayak asked, hastily dabbing at her tears, "You should be happy about being pregnant."Eulalia shook her head: "Ms. Hayak, is Percival really going to abort my child?"Ms. Hayak froze, her hand stiffening around the tissue as she struggled to process the news."Why... why would he do that?"Eulalia explained everything to Ms. Hayak, including how the medicine Percival had given her was meant to disrupt her memory, indicating he never wanted her to recover her memories.To ensure she couldn't remember anything, he even planned to reduce her to a simpleton and keep her confined here.Eulalia didn’t understan

    Eulalia had disappeared; she had fled.Percival had meticulously pieced together all his thoughts: Eulalia had planned her escape from the very beginning.She first signed the surgery agreement to lower his guard, using his guilt to ensure he kept his distance for the week.Then, she seized the opportunity of his relaxed vigilance to escape.Percival had never imagined Eulalia would leave him in such a manner—amnesiac, mentally unsteady, pregnant, and penniless.Who else did she know besides him?Percival hung up the phone and walked straight out of the meeting room, leaving Oliver in charge.---Grabbing his car keys, Percival rushed to the parking lot. His hands trembled as he opened the door, and once inside the car, he dialed Eulalia's number."Sorry, the number you have dialed is switched off..."Hearing this, Percival's breath caught, and a chill spread from his skin to his blood, freezing his heart.He feared Eulalia leaving him, and more so, feared something happening to her.

    The bus was crowded and chaotic. Worried about pickpockets, Eulalia dared not close her eyes to rest. After a jarring 24-hour ride, she arrived in a small town. After briefly resting for a day, she continued her journey, hopping from place to place like a rabbit from one burrow to another. Two weeks later, she reached a village that was barely discernible on the map and rented an apartment near a school.The place had its pros and cons. The downside was the inconvenient transportation and the local dialect, which made communication difficult. However, Eulalia was adaptable and soon got used to these issues.The advantages were more significant: low cost of living, a mix of people that made it difficult to be found, and the fact that no identification was required to get things done. After paying her rent, Eulalia returned to her modest bedroom, which had only a wooden plank for a bed; she needed to buy a mattress and bedding.The house was not luxurious, but it was clean and not damp.

    Eulalia went shopping again during the day, stocked up on some everyday stuff, and threw some fresh meat in the fridge to chill.The lady renting out the place to her is about thirty, with two kids. Eulalia hasn't talked to her much, but she seemed nice and friendly when they signed the contract.The landlady lives in the same building, which has five floors. Eulalia's on the third floor, and the landlady's up top.One day, she stopped by Eulalia's place, knocked on the door, and brought over some veggies from her garden.Eulalia accepted them and quickly checked her fridge to see if she had anything to give back.The landlady laughed and said, "Don't worry about it. It's just some veggies from my garden, not worth much. By the way, are you living alone?"She looked around the neat and tidy room that felt a bit too quiet."Yeah, just me."The landlady was curious but didn't pry since it's personal stuff. Still, she thought she should keep an eye on her from now on since living alone i

    The landlady invited Eulalia in to sit on the sofa and poured her a glass of lemon water, which she placed on the coffee table."How have you been feeling these last few days? Are you uncomfortable?""Just a lack of appetite and a bit nauseous, other than that, I'm okay.""That's a normal reaction, but if you feel really bad, you should go see a doctor. When I was pregnant with my son, I also had no appetite for anything. My husband spent his days figuring out what to eat and took me out to distract me; it made me feel better. Oh, when I didn't feel like eating, I liked sour things, like lemon slices. Try this and see," she suggested, handing over the drink.Eulalia, touched and envious of the proprietor's words, admired the care she received from her husband and his consideration for her and their child. She tasted the lemon water, finding it pleasantly sweet and sour, and nodded, "It's delicious.""That's good, I enjoyed drinking it when I was pregnant too, but you can't drink too m

    Early the next morning, Eulalia boarded the bus to the county town. Upon arriving, she took a taxi to the largest shopping mall in the area. This was her first visit to a mall since she had arrived in town, and she concealed the excitement trembling in her heart.Eulalia surveyed her surroundings while memorizing the route, searching for a jewelry store. After asking around, she finally found a shop where she could pawn jewelry. She glanced at the décor and then her eyes settled on the jewelry displayed behind the glass—too ordinary. She was unsure how to price them.It was only when a sales clerk saw her wandering around that he approached her and asked, “What kind of jewelry are you looking to pick out, miss?”Eulalia responded directly, “Is your boss here?”The clerk’s smile faltered slightly, subtly masking his concern—perhaps fearing she was there to return an item or cause trouble.“Our boss isn’t here, but the manager is.”“Could you please call the manager over? Thank you.”Th

    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.

    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.

    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
