I was stunned.
A faint metallic taste filled my mouth.
My ears rang.
Rhonda let out a soft shriek, grabbing Zach’s
hand.
“Zach, how could you?! Even if Chloe was
faking, it’s because you haven’t been paying
enough attention to her! Didn’t we say we’d talk
to Chloe nicely…?”
Zach calmed down under her soothing words.
But his gaze towards me remained filled with
disgust.

“Chloe, why can’t you be more like Rhonda!
While you’re busy being jealous, she’s
considerate and speaks up for you! You even
faked an illness to frame her, aren’t you
ashamed?!”
I wiped the blood from my lips, meeting his
gaze calmly.
“Zach, whether I was in a real accident or not,
you only need to check my medical records, ask
the nurses, and everything will be clear! Are you
speechless or brainless, to keep acting like
this?!”
Zach sneered.
“Don’t I know what you’re like? You even found extras for this performance. I’m impressed by
your acting skills, Chloe!”
As we stood there, the doctor opened the door.
“Hey, Zach? What are you doing here?” he
asked, surprised.
Zach’s expression shifted.
The doctor’s eyes scanned the three of us, then
he nodded knowingly.
“You and your girlfriend are friends of Ms.
Zhou, here for a visit?”
“Ms. Zhou is really unlucky. She was run over
twice by a train before arriving at the hospital.
Internal bleeding, multiple broken bones… If she
hadn’t been brought in on time, after we
worked on her all night…”
Zach’s eyes widened in disbelief, staring at me.
“Chloe, you really…”
The doctor continued, smoothly taking over the
conversation

“Yeah, Zach. Since you’re here, could you take
a look at my treatment plan? Ms. Zhou needs
proper rest and rehabilitation or it will really
affect her life…”
Zach’s fist clenched.
