Eliza was finally discharged from the hospital and decided to check the company's intrforum. To her surprise and relief, the posts accusing her of being a rapist's sister were gone. Instead, the forum now featured a statement against defamation, emphasizing company image protection and banning rumor-mongering. This directive had cstraight from the CEO's office. The forum had quieted down considerably since then.

Still, Eliza was uncertain about returning to work.

Her phone buzzed with a message from Molly.

[Eliza, when are you planning to cback to work? You've used up all your annual leave.] After a moment, Eliza replied, [I'll be back at work tomorrow.] [Cearly. We have sarrangements for you.] Molly responded.

Eliza wondered what kind of arrangements Molly spoke of. Was it a dismissal? A salary deduction? Or something else? Exhausted, she returned to her apartment from the hospital. Then, Dr. Sanders from the Wellness Medical Center called her.

"Eliza, you need to cto the hospital," he said urgently.

"Is something wrong with my mom?" Eliza's heart sank.

"Your mom's awake. You should cnow." Her heart raced at the news. Without a second thought, Eliza grabbed a taxi straight to the hospital. At the entrance, she bumped into Aaron. "Eliza," he said, his face warm, his black and grey cashmere coat adding to his refined look. "I heard your mom woke up. That's wonderful news." "I just got the call from Dr. Sanders. I can hardly express how I'm feeling," Eliza said, her emotions a whirlwind of laughter and tears.

"Let's not get too worked up," he said, patting her back gently as they walked inside together.

As they pushed open the door to the ward, they stopped in their tracks. Casper was there. His look towards them wasn't fierce, but it carried an undercurrent of tension. Eliza chose to ignore his gaze and hurried to her mother's bedside. Rose was awake, but her gaze seemed vacant, and her mouth was slightly open, which was concerning. "Dr. Sanders, what's going on with my mom?" Eliza asked.

"She's just woken up. Her consciousness hasn't fully returned yet. It will take stime, so don't worry." Eliza nodded, holding Rose's hand gently. "Mom, it's going to be okay. Don't be scared, I'm here." "Ms. Eliza, Dr. Martin has arranged for an acupuncturist, Dr. Mason, to csoon. He'll perform acupuncture on your mom, which should help her recover faster. Let's step outside for now." Dr. Sanders mentioned this in front of Casper unintentionally, unaware of the complex relationship between the three.

Casper's expression darkened visibly. Aaron was about to explain when Casper stepped out of the room, his voice cold and sharp as if cutting through bone. "Eliza, cwith me," he said without looking back.

Eliza's spine stiffened, and she took a deep breath before walking towards the door.

Feeling somewhat apologetic, Aaron said, "I arranged for for the acupuncturist on my own initiative. I didn't mean to одру cause you any trouble." "It's not about that," Eliza replied.

"I'll talk to Casper. It's not right to keep misunderstanding each other like this "Aaron said with concern, stepping in front of Eliza. "Wait here for a moment." Casper didn't wait for Eliza to follow him, and Aaron walked straight into his line of fire.

"Where's Eliza?" Casper asked, his tone cool but composed.

Aaron approached him, his brows furrowed deeper. "I don't understand what you're misunderstanding. Most of my enebunters with Eliza are coincidental. I really don't get why you're always upset, Casper You weren't like this before." X
