Vanessa chuckled softly, her tone becoming even more delicate: "But Clara has had it pretty rough too. That car accident you arranged was so realistic. Not only did she barely survive, but when she woke up, most of her half-matched bone marrow was extracted. Aren't you afraid that if she finds out the truth, she'll cause a scene? Extracting bone marrow damages the foundation of her health; she'll have to spend the rest of her life on medication."
The car accident... was not an accident.
Bone marrow... it wasn't extracted by the hospital to save me.
It's him! It's Liam!
These words were like countless needles, piercing my limbs and bones, causing me excruciating pain. I covered my mouth tightly, my nails digging deep into my palms until blood seeped out. The taste of blood filled my mouth, a nauseatingly sweet and metallic flavor.
It turns out that my near-death car accident was a carefully planned conspiracy by him.
It turns out that my weakness and prolonged illness after the surgery were because my bone marrow was forcibly extracted and used to give Vanessa a chance to live!
