Chapter 21: Confrontation and Manipulation
(Elena’s POV)
Marcus remained silent for a momen
then withdrew his gaze and sneered. “You remember it quite clearly.”
I could indeed remember clearly. I remembered every hurtful word he had ever said to me. It took me six years to wake up, but at least I didn’t waste my entire lifetime.
The car pulled up to the Northern Territory Central Healing Institute. I followed Marcus through the familiar corridors, my footsteps echoing against the polished floors.
We stopped outside Sophia’s recovery room. Marcus pushed open the door without knocking.

When I saw Marcus enter, I smiled and sat up in bed. “Marcus, you…”
But when I noticed Elena behind him, my expression instantly stiffened. My hands secretly gripped the bedding tightly.
I couldn’t understand why he would bring Elena to see me. What was his purpose?

I was stunned. I couldn’t believe this woman would actually apologize to me.
Elena then bowed three times. “I wish Senior Healer Rivers good health, fulfillment of wishes, and long lasting prosperity.”
I was speechless. The three bows made it seem like Elena was paying respects to the dead.
My face flushed with anger, but I had to maintain my composure in front of Marcus.
Marcus pulled Elena away with slight dissatisfaction. “Is this your apology?”
I quickly intervened, forcing sweetness into my voice. “Marcus, forget it, I’m fine. Healer Elena has sincerely apologized…”
But secretly I gritted my teeth as I stared at his hand holding Elena’s arm.
Elena freed her arm from his grasp. “You heard it yourself – the person involved said to forget it. Also, you only asked me to bow my head to Senior Healer Rivers. Isn’t bowing more sincere than just lowering my
