171 Someone Very Important

Dexter rushed into the hospital, his breathing heavy from running all the way inside. The emergency room light was still red, signaling that Adela and Herbie were still being treated. His heart pounded in his chest as he spotted Diana sitting in a chair, holding a trembling Ralph in her arms."Mom, how are they?" Dexter asked, his voice tight with anxiety.Diana had been staring at the ER doors for what felt like an eternity. Hearing her son’s voice, she finally looked up, but her face was pale with fear. In her arms, Ralph had cried himself hoarse, his small body still shaking as he let out silent sobs.She didn’t respond immediately. She had been too shaken by what had happened. Even now, she hadn’t fully processed everything. Instead, she just kept rubbing Ralph’s back, trying to comfort him while struggling to keep herself together.Just then, the doors to the ER swung open, and a doctor stepped out. Dexter immediately strode forward, his voice urgent. "Doctor, how are they?"The

172 No One Will Be Spared

Liam Walton spotted director arriving and immediately stepped forward, his expression tense. "I’m really going to have to trouble you with this one," he said, his voice filled with urgency.Diana, who had been sitting in anxious silence, quickly stood up. Everyone in New York knew his reputation—his medical skills were legendary. If there was anyone who could save Herbie, it was him. Seeing him gave her a much-needed sliver of hope."Doctor, please," Diana pleaded, her voice almost trembling. "You have to save her—she’s just a child."Adela was out of immediate danger, but Herbie was still fighting for her life. Diana had only met the little girl a couple of times, but she had already grown fond of her. Herbie was sweet, full of life—too young to suffer like this.Just thinking about the moment that massive billboard collapsed onto Herbie made Diana’s heart ache. The sheer weight of it—how could such a small body possibly endure that kind of impact? Even the people at the scene couldn

173 The Strange Smile

As soon as Layson Norman stepped off the plane, he didn’t head straight to the hospital—he went directly to the police station instead. The whole situation was too suspicious, and he refused to believe this was just some random accident. Sitting in the back of the car, he closed his eyes for a moment, exhaustion settling deep in his bones. His mind was on edge, his heart pounding in an anxious rhythm he hated to acknowledge. He was scared.He never admitted fear, but right now, he was terrified—terrified of hearing bad news about Adela. Afraid that if he let himself think too much, he might not be able to handle it."Boss, that shopping mall is under Marty’s management. Should we bring him in for questioning?" Barnes, sitting in the front seat, asked while typing away on his laptop. Given the size of the Norman family's business empire, it had taken him a moment to confirm which branch owned the shopping center where the accident occurred.Layson opened his eyes slowly at the mention

174 Unconscious

At the Hospital, the dim glow of the hospital room cast long shadows along the walls, making the space feel even colder than it already was. Dexter Norman sat quietly beside Adela’s bed, watching her motionless form with a sinking weight in his chest.He hated this—hated the helplessness, the way his hands were clenched into fists in his lap, useless. Everything had happened so fast. Just hours ago, she had been fine, laughing with Ralph and Herbie. And now? Now she was lying there, unconscious, wrapped in bandages, her face pale against the stark white of the sheets.The sudden sound of the door swinging open startled him. He turned sharply, his eyes meeting the stormy black gaze of Layson Norman standing in the doorway.“Layson—”Layson didn’t respond, only lifted a hand slightly, signaling Dexter to lower his voice. He didn’t say another word as he stepped inside, shutting the door quietly behind him.Dexter had never seen this expression on Layson before—his usually cold, sharp ey

175 The Interrogation of Lydia

Being taken away in handcuffs was something Lydia never imagined would happen to her. She had spent her life in the spotlight, admired, envied, and praised. Now, she was nothing more than a criminal being dragged into a police station.As the officers led her forward, she suddenly let out a low chuckle. That chuckle soon turned into full-blown laughter. The officers exchanged uneasy glances, unsure if she had lost her mind."You’re ruthless… absolutely ruthless," she muttered between laughter. "I was such a fool. Such a damn fool."Only now did she realize how thoroughly she had been used. She had been nothing more than a pawn in someone else's game. And worse, she had willingly walked into it. How could she have been so blind? Why had she ever thought it was a good idea to go against Layson Norman?A gust of wind blew her disheveled hair across her face, but she hardly noticed. Across the street, in the shadow of a tall building, a woman in high heels stood watching. Marah had been w

176 Adela Wakes Up

The moment Lydia finally opened up, the officers in the interrogation room exchanged surprised glances. They had braced themselves for an all-night standoff, expecting her to stay silent or keep playing mind games. But she had finally cracked.They pressed on."Was it a man or a woman? How did they contact you?"The dimly lit room had only a single overhead lamp casting shadows on the walls. Earlier, Lydia had found the lighting oppressive, but now she was grateful for it. At least it hid the redness of her eyes.She fought back the tears that threatened to fall, forcing a smirk onto her lips to hold them back. But her gaze lingered on Liam Walton. This might be the only time she’d ever be this close to him. In a twisted way, she was grateful for it."A woman," she finally said. "She approached me first. Back when the rumors about me and Layson Norman were spreading, she called me out of nowhere. I thought she was a reporter or some crazy fan at first. But she was persistent. She kept

177 How’s Herbie?

Adela’s eyes fluttered open, her vision hazy as she adjusted to the harsh hospital lighting. The first thing she saw was Layson sitting beside her, his expression filled with worry, exhaustion, and something else—something deeper. But her mind was still blank, struggling to make sense of everything.Across the room, Spencer Walton suddenly snapped out of his daze. In his rush to leave, he nearly tripped over the bed frame. “I—I’ll get the doctor,” he muttered hastily before disappearing out the door.Within minutes, the doctor arrived, flanked by nurses. They quickly began assessing her condition.“Miss Walton, do you feel dizzy?” the doctor asked, shining a small flashlight into her pupils. The sudden brightness made her squint, her senses slowly coming back.The room was filled with soft murmurs and the gentle hum of medical equipment, but the one thing Adela noticed most was the warmth of the hand holding hers. A steady, firm grip that provided a deep sense of security. She knew in

178 Investigating Marah

Layson Norman stayed with Adela in the hospital room the whole time. She didn’t fall back asleep, but stared blankly at the ceiling, replaying every scene from the mall incident over and over in her mind. She vividly remembered everything, especially the moment when she felt her heart nearly stop.Seeing Adela lying there with empty eyes, Layson knew she was deeply worried about Herbie. At this moment, he felt utterly powerless. He was a man who could command storms in the business world, yet now he was completely helpless in front of Adela. Silence filled the room, leaving only the quiet sound of their breathing.Suddenly, a noise from outside broke the tense silence. A young voice called loudly from the doorway, “Mommy! Mommy!”Adela turned her head slightly and saw Ralph’s small figure appear. Her eyes, previously unfocused, regained a hint of clarity. She realized she must have scared Ralph terribly. She could faintly remember hearing his anxious cries when she collapsed that day.

179 Released from Jail

Behind the glass window, the figure on the hospital bed lay motionless, surrounded by medical equipment. Each flicker and beep on the life-monitoring devices made the observers' hearts tighten anxiously.Adela, escorted by Layson Norman, repeatedly reminded herself to stay calm and not collapse again. But when she stood in front of the window looking at Herbie, her heartache was overwhelming. She covered her mouth, desperately trying to hold back tears, but they streamed down uncontrollably.Layson reached out to comfort her, but Adela resisted, unwilling to tear her eyes away from Herbie. The memory of that huge advertising board crashing down haunted her; despite being so close, she couldn’t protect her sister.“Adela, please don't do this. We'll do everything we can to make her better,” Layson murmured gently, pain evident in his weary eyes, accentuating his rugged yet handsome features.He forcibly pulled her into his embrace. Adela buried herself in his chest, clinging tightly to

180 She'll Wake Up

At the entrance of the Starry Building, a dark red sports car was parked conspicuously. Bard leaned casually against the door, attracting plenty of attention, though he couldn't care less. His lips curled into a cocky smirk as he stared intently toward the main entrance.When Marah walked out and spotted Bard standing there, she felt a pang of surprise, quickly replaced by annoyance.Seeing the woman he'd been waiting for, Bard confidently approached Marah, holding a bouquet of bright red roses. Marah avoided eye contact but found herself unable to move away. When Bard reached her, she snapped irritably, "Why are you here? Didn't I tell you to stop bothering me?"Ignoring her cold tone, Bard handed her the roses, his voice carefree and arrogant. "I came to take you out to dinner. Let's go."When Bard reached to grab her hand, Marah immediately pulled away in disgust. She couldn't stand the sight of him—his smug, oily face made her uncomfortable. "I'm not going."She turned to leave bu
