"I'm sorry, I'll make it up to you! From now on, you'll be my wife!"

In the darkness, boundless pain engulfed her, plunging her into endless darkness...

Next morning, Calista Chilton jolted awake in her hospital bed as the sun's rays hit her face.

Every movement caused excruciating pain in every joint of her body, leading to groans escaping her lips.

In an instant, she realised what had happened last night... She was really with someone...

Calista buried her head in her pillows and squeezed her eyes shut, trying to hold back the tears, but they flowed freely down her cheeks.

That man had shattered her innocence, which she had carefully guarded for twenty years, and ruined the love she had cherished for five years!

No!

She couldn't let it end like this!

Taking out her phone, Calista wanted to call the police, only to find that her phone was dead and turned off.

She sat on the ground, not knowing how much time had passed, until she heard a knocking sound at the door.

Calista suddenly snapped back to reality, looking at the chaotic scene on the hospital bed. She immediately stood up, enduring the pain, tidied up everything on the bed, covered the torn clothes with a white coat, and then put on a mask before opening the door.

As she entered the room, Molly quickly closed the door behind her, looking at the tightly wrapped Calista with anger on her face.

"Calista, what are you doing? I told you to leave the hospital before six o'clock, why are you still here!"

"I'm leaving now." Calista took off her name badge and handed it to Molly. "This is the last time, Molly. I won't cover your night shifts anymore!"

If she hadn't covered for Molly, none of what happened last night would have occurred!

Hearing Calista's words, Molly's gaze gradually became sinister. "What's wrong, my sweet perfect sister can't keep up the act anymore and is showing her true colours?"

Since Calista returned at the age of eighteen, she had stolen Molly's spotlight.

Prior to that, Molly was the belle of the school, the pride of her parents, and the envy of their relatives and neighbours. But after Calista came back, everything changed.

Calista's many talents included excelling in school, handling household chores with ease, and effortlessly charming those around her with her words. Even those classmates who used to chase after Molly now sought Calista's favour, and the relatives who used to praise Molly would now praise her instead. She became the centre of attention, and Molly couldn't stand it.

It was Calista! Calista had taken everything away from her!

She hated Calista!

From the beginning, Calista should never have existed!

The hatred from being humiliated by the man last night, combined with the anger from Molly's provocation at this moment, rushed into her mind. Calista glared at her sister. "Molly, back off or I'll snap. I took your shifts 'cause I didn't want our folks to stress over us being together. I won't help you anymore!"

After talking, Calista pushed past Molly and ran out of the emergency room.

Watching Calista's retreating figure, Molly narrowed her eyes. "You dare talk to me like that, Calista? Wait until I get home tonight; I'll teach you a lesson!"

A cold light flashed in her eyes. Molly put her name badge back on, and then her face wore a sweet and gentle smile as she left the emergency room.

As soon as Molly stepped out of the room, she saw a group of men in black rushing into the hospital lobby. The man leading them scanned the area with fierce eyes and grabbed a young nurse, asking, "Where is Dr Molly Chilton?"

Looking for her?

Molly's heart trembled. Could it be the man she played with at the bar last night? But no, she was in disguise; there was no way he could recognise her.

However, they specifically asked for her by name. An uneasy feeling washed over Molly, and she immediately turned around to run, but in the next second, the young nurse pointed her out.

"That's Dr Chilton right there."

Uh-oh!

Molly's legs pumped as she ran away, her heart pounding in her chest with silent screams. She attempted to move forward, but her path was obstructed by a group of men in black. As he made his way through the crowd, the man in charge's eyes locked onto her and he stood before her, sizing her up with an icy stare.

Molly looked at the men surrounding her in terror. "What do you want? This is a hospital; don't cause trouble!"

The man's eyes scanned her from head to toe, finally settling on her name badge.

Intern: Dr Molly Chilton.

It was her!
