Under the Veil I Rule (Amara) novel Chapter 774

Liliana felt a surge of panic, but she was careful not to let it show. She quickly said, “I know, Finn. You’ve always treated me so well all these years. If it weren’t for you, I never would’ve been able to make it so far in the entertainment industry, and my parents wouldn’t be living so comfortably now…”

“I know you’ve already repaid any debt long ago. I’m not trying to hold that over you—I just wanted you to know how much you mean to me…”

“Don’t say things like that again.”

The more Liliana tried to explain, the more Finnian’s irritation grew. He cut her off, his face cold and stern.

“From now on, as long as you don’t try anything underhanded, you’ll do well in this industry, and your parents will be just fine. But don’t even think about anything else.”

“Get some rest. I’m leaving.”

With that, he turned and walked out of the hospital room, ignoring Liliana’s gaze.

Liliana sat on the hospital bed, stunned and at a loss.

She knew it was impossible for Finnian to forgive her all at once, but she had at least hoped he would soften a little toward her. But the way he acted just now was so resolute—it was as if he was determined to draw a clear line between them. Now what was she supposed to do?

She gently patted her cheeks, trying to pull herself together and not sink into worry.

It was all right to fail this time. There would always be another chance.

There was still time. She would find a way to win Finnian back.

Forcing herself to calm down, her mind started working quickly as she began to plan her next move.
