"What's happening in there?"Julia forcefully pushed Jared against the door inside the room, breathing heavily. She tried to calm her racing heart, to maintain some semblance of sanity amidst the chaos.A fire seemed to consume her from within, threatening to engulf her entirely."Mr. Brooks," she began, trying to gain his attention, "I need to discuss something with you."Jared stood tense, his body taut like a drawn bow."Do you need my assistance?" he asked, trying to read her.Julia exhaled deeply, the heat evident in her breath. "I can't administer this injection to myself in my current state."She wouldn't have made such a request if circumstances had been different."Listen, if you help me now, I assure you, if you ever desire a divorce in the future, I'll grant it without hesitation.

Neil and Naomi's faces drained of color upon seeing them.One of the homeless men cried out, desperation evident in his voice, "Mr. Brooks, please spare us! They hired us.

Upon hearing Philip's words, Jared paused mid-meal to cast a penetrating glance at Julia's phone.Julia pursed her lips, a smirk evident. "So, Natalia's being generous, finding me a partner? What is he, a man in his fifties or sixties?""You should be so lucky," Philip retorted icily. "Given your current reputation, do you really expect to snag a wealthy nobleman?"Julia arched an eyebrow, well aware of Natalia's intentions. "What's wrong with my reputation? I was deceived by a scheming man and betrayed by a so-called 'angelic' woman. How am I not the victim here?""I won't waste my time arguing with you," Philip snapped.

Shiloh's astonishment left her stumbling over her words.Jared, his expression impassive, turned his gaze toward Shiloh. "You're not a fan of sweet treats either. Didn't you just finish eating?"Shiloh's voice faltered as she replied, "Yes, but that's different! The medicine I had was so bitter.""I can relate.
