When I remembered the fall, I could only feel thankful that I’d fainted right away. If I’d stayed conscious and watched the wolves attack me, I probably wouldn’t have survived.
My body was wrapped in bandages. Every muscle ached as if it were being torn apart. Luckily, my face was still fine. I tried to sit up, wincing in pain.
“Monica, can you help me get a divorce petition?” I asked softly.
Monica stared at me for quite a while before nodding her head. To be honest, we hadn’t been very close before. But she had been taking care of me these past few days. Hence, we had grown closer.
Fortunately, my injuries weren’t too serious. The doctors said I could leave the hospital soon. When Monica helped me downstairs, I saw them. Fabio and my parents were carefully supporting Serena, surrounding her with worry and comfort.
In that instant, I understood why no one had come to see me all this time.
Monica glared at me angrily, cursing my heartless family.
I gave her a bitter smile. So this was the truth—no one had ever truly loved me.
How wonderful, I thought. At least now I could leave without any more worries.
