Chapter 3

Kaelyn felt dizzy from the blow. As she was about to fall, Andres quickly caught her and pulled her into his arms.

Just then, his assistant suddenly cried out, "Mr. Warren, look at Miss Dobson. She just fainted from low blood sugar."

Kaelyn was instantly pushed away from the warm embrace.

Andres rushed towards Madelynn and scooped her up in his arms. He shouted with reddened eyes, "Call an ambulance. If I don't see a doctor here in a minute, all of you get out."

Chaos erupted all around. Everyone was focusing on Madelynn, and no one noticed that Kaelyn collapsed on the floor and was nearly unconscious.

Eventually, a passing police officer found her and took her to the hospital.

When Kaelyn woke up, Andres, who had stayed by her bed, immediately stood up and checked on her. He looked relieved and happy. "Kaelyn, you're awake?"

He reached out and gently touched the bandage on her forehead. "Don't worry. I've hired the best doctor, and there won't be any scars."

With that, he gave a tender smile. "We're still going to get married. I want you to be the most beautiful bride in the world."

Kaelyn turned her head to avoid his touch.

There would never be a wedding between him and her.

In the following days, Andres canceled all his work and always stayed by Kaelyn's bedside.

If she hadn't received the photos of him putting socks on Madelynn, the video of him washing her underwear, and the recording of him singing lullabies to her, Kaelyn might have really believed that Andres had really felt regret and would change.

But Kaelyn had daydreamed again.

Early that morning, Andres traveled a long way to get Kaelyn's favorite doughnuts from an old, renowned restaurant.

He hadn't been gone long when Madelynn pushed open the door to the hospital room.

Kaelyn frowned at her. "What are you doing here?"

Madelynn smiled smugly. "I just came to see how miserable you are. I only pretended to faint that day, and Andres immediately left you behind."

She walked closer and lowered her voice. "If something happened to me in your hospital room, would he immediately get rid of you?"

Kaelyn looked at Madelynn flatly. She had no intentions of fighting. "If you like him, take him. I'm not playing along."

Her indifference immediately infuriated Madelynn.

The latter suddenly grabbed Kaelyn's hair and forcibly dragged her off the bed. "Why are you pretending to be so arrogant? Are you trying to get his attention and make me look petty?"

In the scuffle, they unknowingly retreated to the edge of the balcony outside the hospital room.

Madelynn was completely consumed by rage. "You'd better stop daydreaming. You, a manipulative woman, cannot be with Andres."

Kaelyn couldn't care less about the tearing pain in her forehead, as half of her body was hanging over the railing. She might fall at any moment.

Her heart raced as she tried to suppress her fear and stop Madelynn from acting impulsively. "I'll leave him. I'll never appear in front of him again. Just let me go."

Madelynn wasn't listening. Instead, she said ironically, "Stop playing a trick."

Her eyes were red as she said each word slowly, "You must die. Only when he can never see you again can I be with him forever."

Kaelyn's pupils contracted as she realized what was happening. She shook her head desperately. "Don't..."

Madelynn smirked and loosened her hand.

Kaelyn fell straight backward when the hospital room door was kicked open. Andres had just returned and saw the scene. The items in his hands scattered across the floor instantly.

He lunged towards the balcony like a madman. "Kaelyn!"
