Wilfred followed Nina's gaze toward the door. Then, he walked over and opened it. The person who entered was Scarlett. Her worried eyes turned to Wilfred. "How are you?" she asked.

Noticing someone behind him, she saw Nina. Scarlett looked surprised but then pressed her lips together, remaining silent.

Seeing her, Nina felt a whirlwind of emotions. Nina had just learned about her poisoning, and now Scarlett appeared. The pity she had felt earlier vanished and was now replaced by anger and resentment. "It's you," Nina said, walking over.

Scarlett looked up at her. "It's been a while."

Nina asked, "Was it you who poisoned me?"

Scarlett's expression changed, and she chose to remain silent.

For her, this matter was also extremely complicated and troubling. But thinking of how it involved Wilfred, Scarlett felt a twinge of guilt.

Nina realized she had been too naive, always hoping for the best. "Why did you do it? If you wanted to kill me, why didn't you just push me off a cliff? That would have been more thorough. Instead, you gave me hope for life, only to make me drag others down with me!"

This state of being neither alive nor dead, causing others to sacrifice themselves for her, was unbearable.
