Venna and Maureen immediately left when they saw that Amethyst was safe and far from the brink of death. They wouldn't have left if Amethyst hadn't forced them. After all, Amethyst knew they still had work to do.

Amethyst doesn't want to be alone, but that doesn't mean she'll let others disturb her. Also, he didn't want Venna to be late in passing their reports; that's why he sent her away.

When Venna and Maureen left, Amethyst sighed. Silence. Sometimes she doesn't like it, and sometimes she prefers it. It depends on the situation and condition.

"Just go to sleep," Amethyst said to herself when she finished reading her emails.

The quiet hum of the hospital's night shift was a stark contrast to the chaotic energy of the arena just days before. It was midnight, so the whole area was normally quiet.

    Amethyst stood her ground, the mocking laughter fading from her lips but leaving a hard edge in her eyes. This is the first time that she has seen such a brazen person. They really insist on what they want, even though they know she doesn't want to do that. They will really do everything just to justify everything they do and to make what they do look right. Well, that won't sell to Amethyst. It is because she had enough of their nonsense, and it is time for her to stand up for herself.She looked at her family, the people who had belittled and ignored her for so long, and felt a weariness settle into her bones.

It had been two days since he had remained idle. She didn't resign, but why doesn't she have a job? Amethyst sighed. The silence of her apartment was almost deafening, a stark contrast to the constant hum of activity she was used to. He is not used to doing nothing.

The days since she left her family's house had been uneventful, and she found herself struggling to fill the hours.She had tried cooking, filling the apartment with the warm, comforting smells of homemade meals, but even that had grown tedious.

He knew that even though they knew the reason why Amethyst agreed to get married, even though Dylan knew that they wouldn't blame him for this, with his conscience, he couldn't help but feel that these were all his fault.He felt like a coward, like a man who had failed her in every possible way.Take a deep breath before opening the door. He opened it very gently and stepped inside. The room is as gloomy as it was before and was only dimly lit by the light from the moon outside that entered through the window.Dylan also immediately saw Amethyst; as usual, she was still sitting and staring out the window. She is staring outside with a distant look, her mind seemingly lost in a far-off place. It was like she wasn't st

The other one of the doctors, if there is anything that can bring him back to reality, is if he is heard or given what he wants.

    Dylan stared for a few moments at the lifeless bodies of Jonathan and the woman who died for him. Both of them lay crumpled on the floor, but Dylan had no intention of changing his position. Dylan only stood in front of them with a sneer on his lips. Even though he didn't feel like winning, he still couldn't help but be sneered at.Jonathan's face, once twisted in anger, is now frozen in shock and pain. Of course, Dylan didn't give him a chance to recover from his emotions. Miranda's face, however, looked soft and as if it were ready to die."Pathetic," Dylan muttered, shaking his head and mockingly looking at them. He knows that he has also committed many sins, but these two people are much worse than him. That is what he thinks. "He loved her enough to let her die for him, but he still married another woman." Dylan shook his head and then looked emotionlessly at the two bodies lying on the floor. "No respect at all."Dylan ignored it and started walking away from Jonathan's corpse.

All that was on his mind was to save Amethyst. Meanwhile, some of his staff are regretting it because they can benefit others if they sell.Of course, they are still in the right frame of mind to not use things that their opponent has outgrown. However, they wanted to sell it so that they could have extra money.In one part of the mansion, the dim light of the burning mansion cast flickering shadows on the walls. It's obvious that Dylan has no intention of leaving anything in the mansion.
