Chapter 10
The instrument emitted a piercing scream, and I could feel them rushing nervously in a certain direction.
It seemed like Floyd Wilkinson turned
around, but he couldn’t see me
anymore.

We turned into another corridor, like the star–crossed lovers in a soap opera, always missing each other.
This was the ending we were meant to have.
Suddenly, my body started to
float, and all that excruciating pain disappeared mysteriously.
No, the pain didn’t just vanish; I had become a dead person!
I watched as they pushed the lifeless
body away, instinctively wanting to follow, but it felt like an invisible wall
was blocking me.
I couldn’t go any further.
“Did they just bring in a patient in
critical condition?”

A voice drifted to me, one I knew well, and my body stiffened uncontrollably.
Floyd Wilkinson appeared, holding Priscilla Bates!
“This is a hospital. Who knows how
many people they bring in every day. What’s the big deal?” Priscilla Bates clearly didn’t care about it at all.
But I scrutinized Floyd Wilkinson.
Lately, he’d been so busy, always with too much to handle every day. It had been a while since I’d really looked at
him.
He was still strikingly handsome, even with a bit more weight, it just added
to his robust charm.
If it wasn’t for that face, I wouldn’t
have fallen for him co bard

Who would have thought he’d cheat
so easily?
“Floyd Wilkinson, you’ve caused my death. Are you satisfied?”
I couldn’t help but wonder about his feelings. Would he still be this calm if he saw me dead?
But he couldn’t hear a thing.
He just subconsciously moved toward
my corpse.
Too little, too late, I understood that
phrase deeply now.
“Floyd, didn’t you say you were taking me out today?”
Priscilla Bates impatiently urged him.

So Floyd Wilkinson set aside his
thoughts and prepared to leave with
her.
“Floyd Wilkinson, where are you? We’ve got an emergency; Joan is being resuscitated!”
His phone rang at the worst possible
moment. I moved closer to see Linda
from our company was calling him.
Because of Priscilla Bates, I didn’t have many friends at work.
To avoid standing out, I’d always left behind fake information, so now Linda could only relay the message.
“It’s not that serious, is it?” Floyd Wilkinson instinctively dismissed it, sounding irritated. “Why inform me? Shouldn’t they call her parents?”

Only immediate family could
make decisions about a patient’s
emergency. Linda called him solely because we were dating.
“Maybe… we should go check on her?” Priscilla Bates finally suggested, her eyes glistening with fake concern. “We were just going up to grab some clothes. She said the view was nice
over there, and that’s why I went to
look.”
“Who would have thought…‘
Before she could finish, Priscilla Bates
started sobbing pitiably,
Anyone who didn’t know better would
think I had harmed her!
Floyd Wilkinson, who had started to change direction, abruptly halted and

sneered, “If she dared to do this, she
must have wanted to hurt you. She
needs to learn her lesson!”
A lesson? What did I ever do wrong?
