From a very young age, Sylvia displayed a different side compared to other girls. While most girls immersed themselves in pretty princess dresses and shades of pink, and vied for the attention of handsome young men, Sylvia showed little interest. Furthermore, she had an exceptional older brother, Lance, which led her to have high standards when it came to men. Ordinary young men simply couldn't capture her interest. During her school years, many pursued her with flowers and gifts, but failed to attract her. Later, when she began working in the emergency department of a hospital, she encountered gory scenes every day. Her conversations were often peppered with terms like "fracture," making her one of the renowned figures at St. Love Hospital's emergency department. Sylvia didn't think much of men. They seemed to exist only to fulfill certain needs, and she had little desire for such things. Having become accustomed to being on her own over the years, even as her family members marrie
Seeing the young man staring at her, Sylvia wasn't one to be subtle. Considering the potential identity of the young man, even though she didn't have any disdain for that profession, she still felt a bit strange. So, taking advantage of the moment when the man was in a daze, she swiftly moved out of his embrace.Realizing that her arms were suddenly empty, Lance snapped back to reality. He lowered his head and looked at his empty arms, feeling a sense of loss. A trace of disappointment appeared on his clean face, and his eyebrows furrowed slightly."Lance, I advise you to think it over. I'm offering you a high price. Don't regret it!" The woman took the opportunity to approach, and her finger almost pointed at Lance's nose in an arrogant manner.Sylvia didn't like this woman at all and wanted to teach her a lesson. However, her hand was pulled by Lance, whose fingers were clean and slender, with neatly trimmed nails, just like him, giving off a very clean impression.Sylvia lowered he
In the following weeks, Lance frequently invited Sylvia to meet up. Gradually, Lance developed feelings for Sylvia and decided to confess his feelings. However, Sylvia felt he was too young for her and turned him down.A few days later, Sylvia was taking a break in her office. She heard footsteps approaching the door and assumed it was a nurse coming to remind her about a patient. She set down her coffee cup and stood up. But when the door swung open, it wasn't a nurse who entered; it was Lance, dressed in a suit and holding roses.Almost reflexively, Sylvia's heart skipped a beat. She pretended to flip through patient records and casually asked, "Why are you here?"Not receiving an immediate response from Lance, Sylvia raised her head to find him standing less than two meters away, holding roses and looking directly at her.Lance said, "You asked me to think it over carefully, and I did that after I went back."His expression was incredibly earnest, and Sylvia's fingers, gripping the
The night was thick, refusing to dissipate. The mountains stacked upon each other, with clusters of tree shadows concealed amidst the green waters and blue mountains, where a pure white building stood like a butterfly with spread wings, quietly nestled. The house had a particularly beautiful name: "Butterfly's Departure."Emily stood by the window, her exquisite appearance contrasting with her pale, paper-like complexion. Her eyes were filled with lifelessness, like a stagnant pool devoid of even the slightest ripple. In half an hour, she would die, and her heart would beat in another woman's body.And she...How can a person live without a heart?The wooden door creaked open, and amidst the passage of time, a man walked in. He possessed a tall and majestic figure, handsome and sharp-faced, as if crafted by God's most perfect art. Handsome, yet cold."Only half an hour left until the operation. Do you... have anything else to say?" Aaron's voice carried a strong weariness.The glass w
It was early summer in June, the season when white roses bloomed.A sensational piece of news spread through the streets and alleys of the city. Aaron, the CEO of Aaron Group, and Sarah, the heiress of Luman Real Estate, were set to hold a grand engagement ceremony on June 19th. It would also be Sarah's twenty-third birthday. The two childhood sweethearts had been together for nine years and were finally tying the knot.In the executive residential area of St. Love Hospital, a south-facing two-bedroom apartment boasted excellent lighting. Several pots of blooming white roses swayed gently in the breeze. Inside the off-white single sofa, a woman was fast asleep. Her delicate features, including her finely shaped eyebrows and mesmerizing eyes, were like a painting. Her long, feather-like eyelashes peacefully rested, while her almost translucent, fair skin glowed in the sunlight. With her cherry blossom-pink lips, she was a picture of ethereal beauty.Suddenly, she abruptly opened her ey
Elaine ran out of Cold Garden as if escaping, gasping for breath after running a long, long distance. Suddenly, she felt ridiculous. Why was she running when she hadn't done anything wrong? A black Porsche pierced through the darkness and stopped next to her. The car door opened, and Sylvia rushed over, grabbing Elaine's hand. "We finally found you, Elaine! You scared us." "I'm sorry," no one had ever cared about her like this before, and seeing Sylvia's anxious expression, Elaine immediately felt guilty and apologized. "It's okay, as long as you're okay," Sylvia smiled, shaking her hand, then gestured towards the car. "Mason is here too. Let's go home. Dad is waiting for us to have dinner." "Okay," Elaine nodded, letting Sylvia lead her towards the car. But she couldn't help but turn her head to look at the house. Perhaps she had startled it, as all the lights in the entire house were now on, a stunning sight in the dark night. "Get in the car quickly." Prompted by Sylvia, Elain
Today is Bowie Smith's 60th birthday, and the entire Smith family is in high spirits. After Elaine finished breakfast, she was dragged out by Sylvia to take care of her skin, do her hair, and finally go shopping at the department store.Since her near-death experience, the Smith family has provided her with the best of everything—food, clothing, and all the necessities. They seem to pity her for her past experiences, and everyone in the family treats her exceptionally well, especially Sylvia, who treats her like a real sister.Elaine enjoys all this care and attention, feeling like a well-behaved little sister.Of course, she knows that there is still a demon residing in her heart, but this demon only surfaces when it comes to certain specific people.As for its power, she should be able to find out tonight."How about this dress? You have fair skin and a good figure. Actually, you can pull off any color or style of clothes. But I think you look best in white, like a pure angel," Sylv
Elaine never expected that her reunion with Aaron would happen under such circumstances, in a hotel restroom, facing each other. She could clearly see the subtle changes in his expression, and it was evident that he could see hers too.Clutching her palms tightly, she quickly lowered her gaze, and when she looked up again, her eyes were filled with indifference and detachment. Her voice was faint as she said, "You've mistaken me for someone else."Turning around, she intended to leave.Her arm was grabbed, and the man's grip was strong, causing her hand to ache as he squeezed her hand bones. She frowned, glared at him sideways, and spoke with an annoyed tone, "Sir, please let go!"But that firm grip on her hand didn't loosen. Elaine felt a sense of unease, but quickly dismissed her own concerns. After all, it was Aaron who owed her. Should she be afraid of him?Wouldn't that be ridiculous?Her lips curved into a mocking smile, and she emphasized her words, "If you don't let go, I'll c
