Riley’s mind raced. Maybe if she took Zane to their old haunts -the places they used to go, the people they used to see–his memories would come back faster.

“By the way, did you catch that look Cynthia gave you at the end? Total psycho vibes.” Lara shuddered.

“Strange? She’s never looked at me kindly.” Riley shrugged.

“Yeah, but before it was just your basic bitch glare. After you put on that gown? She wanted you dead. Like you’d murdered her entire bloodline or something.” Lara’s eyes went wide, remembering it.

“Who knows what she’s really thinking, but I won’t just sit back and take it,” Riley said.

“Still, watch your back around someone that unhinged,” Lara

warned.

“I will.” Riley nodded, carefully tucking away the ruby necklace. “Once she donates that bone marrow and saves Lina, if she tries anything–anything–I’m done playing nice.”

“She really is lucky. If it weren’t for the fact that she can save Lina, she would have been expelled from the Lincoln family already. It’s too frustrating for you,” Lara said indigntly.15:47

“This bit of frustration is nothing. Samuel is my only family. I have to save the person who saved his life,” Riley said.

“Maybe your mother’s family still has relatives,” Lara said. “She was separated from her family and then adopted by your grandfather. Judging by her age, she should have had siblings, right?”

“It’s not that easy to find them.” Riley gave a bitter smile. “My grandparents tried to help my mom look before, but they couldn’t find anyone. Too much time has passed, and besides… my mother is gone. If there really are relatives, letting them know would only make them sad.”

“That’s true, too,” Lara sighed.

Riley gently brushed her fingers over the jewelry box holding the ruby necklace.

She drifted off.

When Bianca was alive, it wasn’t that she didn’t want to find her real family. She did. She just kept getting disappointed, over and over again.

If Bianca’s family was really still out there…

Were they looking for her?

Sebastian leaned back against the sofa, a cigarette held between his long fingers.

The white smoke was particularly visible in the quiet night.

“Smoking this late is just going to make it harder to sleep.”

A voice suddenly sounded in the night.

Sebastian looked toward Thomas, who had walked over. “I didn’t ask you to come.”

“You’re my patient. I’m here out of concern,” he said.

Sebastian ignored him, hand holding the cigarette, directly picking up the glass in front of him, draining the wine inside in one gulp.

“You really… have a death wish?” Thomas was both angry and amused. “Smoking and drinking like this, are you trying to kill yourself?”

“Maybe if I drink enough, I’ll fall asleep. Your medicine isn’t effective, so don’t stop me from trying to sleep this way.”

Thomas stared at Sebastian. “In your current state, no

side?”

That day in the consultation room, Riley was clearly concerned about Sebastian.

“And then what?” Sebastian said with a mocking laugh. “I lean on her pity, she sticks around out of obligation, and I finally get some sleep. Then she leaves, the insomnia comes back, and we do it all over again. Sounds fun to you?”

He had done things like using her sympathy before.

To make her love him, he had shamelessly used everything he could–her sympathy and pity, his looks and body, even hiding his true nature in front of her, only showing her the side she

liked.

But in the end, he still couldn’t keep her.

One mistake, and he completely lost her trust.

Even if he could temporarily keep her by his side, what could he use to keep her forever?

“How do you know it would definitely be a repeating cycle? Maybe this time you could keep her?” Thomas asked. “If you’re embarrassed to use her sympathy, then let me be the bad guy. I’ll tie her to your bed, so you can at least get a good night’s

sleep…” 4/5

“Don’t touch her!”

Sebastian’s powerful fingers seemed ready to end Thomas‘ life at any moment, but Thomas showed no fear. Instead, he provoked, “My family has served yours for generations. To us, the lives of your family are paramount. If forced to choose between ‘you dying from insomnia and nervous exhaustion‘ and ‘hurting Riley‘, I would definitely choose the latter.”

Sebastian glared fiercely at Thomas. “If you do any harm to her, even though we grew up together, I won’t spare you.”
