“Can’t you
(just not get married?” Kylie asked him, tears welling up in her eyes.
“No, I can’t,” Ethan replied firmly.
“You’re really going to regret this,” Kylie told him earnestly.
“Even if I do, I’ll still choose to marry Tess, Ethan affirmed decisively.
Kylie bit her lip, finding herself at a loss for words.
Ethan’s determination was terrifyingly resolute.
She couldn’t convince Ethan.
She really couldn’t….
“Don’t waste your emotions on me,” Ethan said, unmoved by Kylie’s distress. “I’m not worth i
With that, Ethan turned and walked away, indifferent to Kylie’s pain.
Unable to hold back any longer, tears streamed down Kylie’s checks.
She thought she was strong and prepared for Ethan’s rejection.
If Ethan were so easily swayed, how could Tess have pushed him to this extent?
But each time she experienced Ethan’s cruelty, the pain cut through her heart like a knife…
Adam hurriedly followed after him.
“Ethan!”
In the hospital corridor, Adam called out to him sternly.
Ethan turned to face Adam. “Are you going to beat me up too?”
Last time, Gideon had fought for Kylie, so he beat Ethan up.
Would Adam do the same?
I am definitely asking for it, Ethan wondered.
I’m not that violent, Adam said icily.
Ethan remained indifferent.
“I just want to tell you, if you’ve made up your mind, stick to it. Don’t waver.” Adam advised.
“I know.” Ethan affirmed before leaving, heading into Tess’s room next door.
Kylie wheeled herself out, watching Ethan’s retreating figure.
Adam glanced back at her, “I told you, You don’t stand a chance
Kylie swallowed back her tears.
She never let herself be weak for too long.

“Yeah, you’re always the assist. Kylie overheard Adam and Ethans conversation.
“It’s for your own good.”
“There’s no need.” Kylie retorted.
She turned away and left.
Adam caught up with her and helped her push the wheelchair.
“You know that Gideon’s not a bad option.”

“I don’t need your reminders!” Kylie, rejected so mercilessly by Ethan and unable to find an outlet for her emotions, shouted at Adam
You could try dating Gideon. They say the best way to forget about one love is to start another.” Adam suggested.
“I won’t forget.” Kylie declared. She would never forget Ethan in her lifetime.
Right now, the person he was, wasn’t entirely Ethan.
“What if Ethan really gets married? If you keep being so stubborn, you’ll just end up as the mistress, destroying someone else’s marriage.” Adam cautioned.
“That’s my business. Kylie retorted.
“Kylie, wake up. Adam sighed in exasperation.
Tm wide awake. Kylie insisted.
“Now I’m starting to think Gideon is better than Ethan in every way.”
“If Gideon is so great, then keep him for yourself, Kylie blurted out.
Adam pursed his lips and said slowly, “Can’t you say something nicer?”
“I learned from you. Kylie retorted.
I’m doing this for your own good.”
“Aren’t I too? Honestly, when you’re with Gideon, you smile more than when you’re with your wife. Haven’t ya “oticed?” Kylie spoke bluntly.
She wasn’t fabricating facts, though she felt it was a bit audacious to say so.
“I won’t say anymore. Do as you please,” Adam shrugged. “But Kylie, if Ethan does get married, I advise you to g Rumors can drown you.”
Kylie didn’t argue further.
She knew Adam was worried.
If Ethan did marry Tess, and she continued to pursue him relentlessly, Tess could use countless means to humiliate her.
So, she had to stop Ethan from marrying Tess.
And so, the next day. Kylie returned to the hospital.
Adam admired Kylie’s resilience.
Just yesterday, she had been ruthlessly rejected, clearly devastated, yet today she seemed to have bounced back, reigniting

her determination.
Accompanying Kylie as they approached Ethan’s room, Adam saw Ethan emerging from it as well.
Ethan looked surprised to see Kylie at that moment, evidently not expecting her to return so soon.
In such a short span of time, Kylie had come back.
“Kylie…”
“Don’t flatter yourself. I’m not here for you,” Kylie interrupted Ethan directly, her expression still somewhat aloof.
Ethan pursed his lips.

Adam, standing nearby, was also taken aback and wondered, “What? Is she playing hard to get today? Although it seems inappropriate to think of it that way, I felt that this tactic won’t work either.
“Suit yourself,” Ethan replied shortly before walking away.
“Wait, Kylie called after him.
Ethan’s steps faltered slightly.
Under Kylie’s call, he found himself unable to move forward.
If he could, he would’ve enveloped her in his arms, never to let her go.
“Are you going to see Tess?” Kylie asked directly.
“Yeah, Ethan replied with a nod.
“No.”
Ethan stared at her.
“I mean I need to talk to her about something, so just wait, Kylie said domineeringly.
Ethan froze.
Even Adam was dumbfounded standing by.
What was Kylie up to now?
Without firsthand experience, Adam truly couldn’t imagine that someone like Kylie, an ice queen, would go to to pursue a man.
Was she unable to break through with Ethan, so she was confronting Tess directly now?
“Give me a push, please,” Kylie said to Adam.
Adam snapped out of his daze and pushed Kylie away from the stiffened Ethan.
“Kylie
“Men should stay out of women’s wars!” Kylie didn’t give Ethan a chance to speak.
She didn’t want to hear Ethan defending Tess.
Ethan pursed his lips.
In reality, he shouldn’t worry. Kylie wouldn’t be at a disadvantage in front of Tess.

Inside the hospital room, Tess’s face lit up with joy when she thought it was Ethan who had arrived. But as soon as she saw Kylie, her expression darkened instantly.
She hadn’t expected Kylie to come to see her directly.
Yesterday, she knew Kylie had come to see Ethan, and she was quite pleased with Ethan’s behavior.
‘So Kylie couldn’t move Ethan, and now she’s targeting me? Tess wondered.
Perhaps Kylie was a bit too confident in herself.
Tess remained composed, and the smile on her lips widened. “Kylie, did you come all this way just to visit me?”
“Yeah,” Kylie replied. “I see you’re quite seriously injured. How’s your recovery going?”
“The doctors say I’m doing well. It won’t delay my wedding,” Tess said intentionally.
“Is that so?”
“On my wedding day, I hope you can come early, Kylie.”
“Do you really believe there’ll be such a day?” Kylie taunted.
