### Chapter 1: Chapter-1

Veronica was furious. She texted me: [Amelia, are you happy now? I’ve lost completely, and now everyone sees me as the other woman. Is this what you wanted?!][I’m not happy yet. You’re still in my way. Get him out of my life, or I’ll crank up the heat and make sure you never recover your reputation!]Maybe she was scared that I had more evidence. Thirty minutes later, Veronica showed up. I watched from my window as she and James argued and pulled at each other.James looked up at me, and for a moment, our eyes met. I did not react. After a while, I turned around and drew the curtains. When I checked again later, the car was gone. It seemed they had left.From then on, I did not see James anymore. All I heard was that after he was suspended, his reputation tanked. Some patients and their families complained that he lacked responsibility, so the hospital had no choice but to sideline him and transfer him to the back office.Despite being the head of surgery with impressive

"Don’t come again. I’ll be discharged tomorrow."I looked at James. His face was pale and defeated. "No… No!"I smiled slightly. "Let’s end things on good terms and let each other go, or you’ll regret it."In the past, I was the one stuck in my own head, constantly competing with Veronica for attention. I used to believe the loudest person got what they wanted, but now I understand. Why should I need to cry to get my way?I was who I was. There was no reason to devalue myself for anyone, and there was certainly no need to cling to someone who did not appreciate me. If one guy did not like me, there were plenty more out there.I could not change who I was.However, James did not understand. He thought I was throwing a tantrum and was ending things because I was heartbroken. The truth was that I just wanted to be myself. Whoever James chose to be with was his business.Seeing he was not going to let go, I did not hesitate. I pulled out photos of his engagement and called h

[Wow, this is disgusting! I thought we were dealing with some sort of love warrior, but turns out he’s just a pathetic simp!][Hey Veronica, how does that strawberry-flavored treat taste? Must feel great having two guys ignoring their partners for you, huh?][Disgusting doesn’t even begin to describe it! It’s like a whole new level of gross!][So, let me get this straight. Your fiancée gets hurt, but delaying the engagement wasn’t an option? You had to bring in a stand-in?][If your brain’s broken, go get it fixed!]Lucas never expected that this whole situation would come back to bite him.By the time he realized what was happening and tried to contact the TikToker to take the video down, it was already too late.Desperate, he went to Monica, hoping to rekindle things between them. However, Monica was not having it. She released his private messages, including the harsh things Lucas had said to her when they had fought over Veronica. Suddenly, Lucas was being roasted onli

Monica had just come back from grabbing some food and getting her bandages changed when she overheard the conversation and immediately spotted the two people everyone was talking about. She flung the porridge in her hand. “You cheating scum! How dare you show your faces here!”Veronica screamed as the porridge splashed on her. “Are you crazy?!”“Crazy? Yeah, maybe I am! You said you had a stomachache that day, right? Too bad it didn’t kill you!“James, while Amelia was practically dying in that fire, what were you doing, huh? You were doubting she was hurt, so what’s with the act now? Stop pretending to care!“Get out! Both of you, leave!” Monica's voice echoed down the hospital corridor, and everyone around turned to stare.They watched as Monica yanked Veronica out of the hospital room, leaving her looking completely humiliated. Even James stood there, stunned.However, instead of being angry, he said, “I’ll come back another time.”“We don’t need you coming back! You’re

"Amelia, I know you don’t like me, but I… I didn’t mean for things to go this way. James was only looking after me," Veronica said, her voice soft, but her words clearly testing me.I glanced at James, my expression cold. "Can you leave now?""I’m sorry.”I looked up, stunned. James was actually apologizing to me! Even Veronica, standing by his side, seemed equally shocked."I’m sorry. I’ve been neglecting you. That day, I thought you were trying to trick me. I believed you had ill intentions toward Veronica, so I..."I cut him off before he could continue. "Don’t bother. You know what they say—delayed affection is cheaper than dirt."I’ve already made my decision. We’re done. Don’t bother me again. Besides, aren’t you two publicly engaged now?"I gave him a mocking smile. "I’ve got all the videos and pictures saved, James. If you ever try to mess with me again, don’t blame me for what happens next."James did not get angry, though. "No matter what you say, I realize now that

Seeing this, Veronica was stunned. She rushed to James’s side, her eyes filled with concern as she looked at his face. Then, she turned to me, her voice sharp, "How could you do that?! The moment James heard you were hurt, he came rushing to check on you, and this is how you repay him—by hitting him?""I wasn’t the one who started this! I didn’t even invite either of you here."I flicked my hand dismissively and stared at him. James’ lips twitched, the corner of his eye tightening. The slap mark was still clearly visible on his face.I glared at him. "James, you get the memo? Now get out. I don’t want to argue with you anymore."I had made it clear they needed to leave, but surprisingly, they still did not move. There was now a flash of anger across James’ face. However, the commotion had caught the attention of Dr. Reynolds, who stepped into the room.He looked at me, his face serious. "Didn’t I tell you to keep your emotions in check? Look at your monitor. It’s about to

I found his words funny. "James, I can’t go back right now.""What exactly do you want?!" James' voice suddenly rose. "I’ve already told my parents everything. Even if you don’t come, I’m still acknowledging you!"If you keep throwing a tantrum, we’re done for good!""James, have you ever truly b

Monica reached over and held my hand.I shook my head at her. “It’s okay. I’m not afraid of pain.”The truth was that it did hurt a lot. However, compared to the pain James caused me, this was nothing.When it was just the two of us in the hospital room, Monica tried to comfort me. “Those two are

Before my engagement, a fire broke out in my dressing room. The explosion sent shards of glass deep into my body.My best friend, Monica Addams, shielded me as we escaped the flames. At the hospital, she stayed by my side as I clung to life. She called my fiancé, James Miller. However, his resp
