Jack seemed to be in a good mood. Even his tone sounded a lot more light–hearted.

Once we reached the meeting room, I was stunned to see Jill, who was clad in business attire. She was also surprised to see me in a loose dress with breakfast in my hands. 

“You” Both of us spoke up at the same time. Then, we burst into piegles simultaneously 

Zack smiled at me too. “You look quite healthy. Now, you resemble your university self.” 

Jack grabbed the documents before looking at his watch. “We have 15 minutes till the meeting starts. You can have breakfast now.”

“I went to the hospital earlier, so I didn’t get to eat anything.” I explained to the other two, 

“Hold on.” Jack retrieved the sandwiches from my hand before passing them to a secretary. “Heat them up. 

The secretary quickly left with the sandwiches.

I was about to tell Jack that the sandwiches weren’t that cold when I felt Jill’s inquisitive gaze on me. Clearly, she i said, “There’s something going on between you two,” 

I just dipped my head low, choosing not to look at her. 

Halfway through the meeting, we decided to call for a break. I got up just to stretch my legs. 

I had just walked out of the meeting room when Jill dragged me into the pantry. 

“Tell me the truth! When did you get together with Jack?” Jill asked while tapping on my chest with a banana. 

Annoyed, I pushed the banana away before feeding it to Jill. “You really are a busybody, huh?” 

“Not me. It’s all Astrid’s fault! She told me that her brother has ulterior motives regarding you!” 

“What type of ulterior motives? Does he want me to die early or get sick faster?” 

After that, I ate a banana too. Right now, I felt great. 

Jill rolled her eyes at me. “Didn’t you go to the hospital earlier? Julian told me that you won’t die as long as you go along with the treatment. 

I nodded in response. There were different ways of surviving in this world. I’d rather die as soon as possible if my only way of survival was to suffer from pain like my mother. 

But then again, I seemed to be doing fine as of now 

I hooked an arm around Jill’s neck while grinning from ear to ear. “Survival is of the utmost importance for me. My work and profits come second. The 

rest doesn’t matter to me at all.” 

Suddenly, I felt an icy gaze being pinned on me. 

Jill and I turned around at the same time. We happened to notice Jack walking past the pantry while maintaining a poker face.
