“Zoe, you can act up however you want usually, it doesn’t matter.”
“But Sophia’s safety is very important right now. Without her, your life might not be saved.”
“Let’s focus on the big picture, okay?”
Hearing this, I was suddenly shocked.
So, for these seven years, Lucas had always known that Zoe was doing it on purpose.
He just loved her too much, so he knew but didn’t say anything.
For a moment, Zoe knew she was in the wrong, her face alternating between shades of green and white.
“Sophia, don’t get cocky. Don’t forget what I said earlier, Lucas will absolutely never marry you!”
She glared at me fiercely before storming out, slamming the door behind her.
Seeing the awkward atmosphere, Lucas took the initiative to offer to take me back.
I nodded, after all, my body was still quite weak.
On the way, we passed by a shopping mall.
In the window display, a pair of platinum rings shimmered under the lights.
The style was exactly the same as the one my husband gave me when he proposed.

Until a car at the intersection couldn’t brake in time and suddenly lost control, rushing towards us.
Luces was still looking down, seemingly lost in thought, completely unaware of the approaching danger.
My heart suddenly tightened.
If he died, what about my task?
What about my husband’s illness?
Almost instinctively, I suddenly pushed Lucas away.
“Sophia! Are you crazy?”
Lucas stumbled from my push, frowning as he looked at me

But the next second, he saw me being hit by the car and lying on the ground covered in blood.
His pupils suddenly contracted, his face filled with disbelief.
“Sophia!”
He stumbled towards me, his voice trembling.
“Why… why did you still save me?”
I was in so much pain I could barely speak, but I still managed to force
