The room was filled with panicked voices.

Suddenly, the door was violently kicked open with a loud bang, and a familiar voice shouted angrily.

“You morons! What took you so long? It’s been hours since the crash, and you’re just getting here now! Screw you! If he doesn’t make it, you’re all gonna pay!”

The loud crash jolted the woman on the hospital bed awake.

Stephanie was dressed in a blue and white striped hospital gown. Her face was pale, her body trembling as she stared blankly at the white ceiling above…

Her mind was a complete fog…

“Stephanie!” The man outside the door rushed in as soon as he saw her awake. “Stephanie, what the hell happened? How did you end up in a car accident?

“And why were you brought to the hospital first? Dominick was left in the car! Do you realize he’s way worse off than you? He could die any minute; how could you be so selfish!”

Vincent stormed to her bedside, glaring at her bewildered face. His teeth clenched as he fired off question after question.

Her eyes were dull as she raised her head to meet Vincent’s furious gaze. Stephanie had never seen him so angry before. Her mind felt dizzy, as if she couldn’t think straight, and she just stared blankly at him.

Vincent’s words echoed in her ears. “He could die any minute…
