Jared had just left when an unexpected visitor arrived-Stella.

She found her way to the intensive care unit and was surprised to see me standing outside. After a brief moment of hesitation, she approached. Her eyes were fixed on the situation inside the ward. "I didn't expect to find you here, Chloe."

Stella chuckled casually, "Chloe, you are indeed fortunate in this regard. But how did you manage to offend so many people? You're always being chased and hunted."
