“What secret?” Ste Grace blurted.


    “Can you give me your phone number?” Greg Miles asked warmly.


    Ste red at him coldly.


    Mentioning the secret was just another way to ost her.


    Besides, she had nothing to do with Jasper Milton’s secret.


    “If we meet again, I’ll give you my phone number. Besides, I don’t think your girlfriend is happy about it.” Ste smiled at his femalepanion.


    “She is not my girlfriend. She is my colleague,” Greg exined.


    “Director Miles the womanizer, not taking advantage of the woman around him? I’m amazed,” Ste said coldly.


    Greg felt a little embarrassed and he left with his colleague with a faint smile.


    “I knew it. You’re so beautiful, guys fall for you left and right. Granted, they may not be good guys,” Eli sighed.


    Ste listened to Eli gossip while sipping alcohol. Both of them drank a little too much.


    Eli did not drive home, instead, they took a cab. When they got home, they felt dizzy. After taking a shower, they justy in bed.


    Eli hugged Ste and grumbled in a low voice, “Ste, don’t leave again. Take me with you if you want to leave. ”


    Ste opened her eyes and stared into space. Her eyes were like calm water.


    A little misty.


    She quietly closed her eyes.


    The next day, Eli reluctantly returned to the military region to work. She was stillining when she left the house.


    “Ugh, it’s so annoying. Ste, do you know that people in military service do not have holidays? We only have a one-month break in a year, but we don’t have a New Year break. For me, I only get three days to leave for this New Year. It’s so annoying. I want to stop working there and have fun with you.”


    “If the military region is your home, you’re basically staying at home every day,” Ste joked.


    “You’re so mean. If youe to work here, I’ll really consider it home. But now there’s a witch in it, so I can only think of it as a prison. Anyway, I have to go now. I’ll see if I can swap my leave with someone. If possible, let’s go shopping together,” Eli said as she put on her military uniform.


    Ste smiled at Eli


    She looked really cool and awesome in that uniform.


    Perhaps this was the charm of being in the army.


    Eli went to work.


    Ste went to visit Celine Grace in the nursing home.


    She didn’t go directly to Celine’s ward, but stopped to see Celine’s doctor.


    “How is my mother?” Ste asked with concern.


    “She’s getting more and more absentminded. You’ll understand what I mean when you see herter,” the doctor said apologetically.


    “May I know, how long can my mother stay alive in this condition?”


    “Five years at most. Prepare yourself for it. Some patients have lived for more than ten years. To be honest, she is now living in her own world. As long as she is alive, she is only hurting her loved ones,” the doctor said curtly.


    “I want to pay the fee for another 10 years. How much does it cost?” Ste asked.


    The doctor was surprised. “Ten years? Are you traveling somewhere far away? It’s okay to transfer the moneyter. Why do you want to give it to one shot?”


    “I am going to a ce, an isted ce, so I want to pay the fee one shot,” Ste said with a slight smile.


    The doctor looked at her suspiciously. “Are you okay? Are you nning to end your life?”


    “I’m a very optimistic person,” Ste responded.


    “You can go to the cashier to check. I don’t think you have to pay a lot because the government will subsidize the fee,” the doctor said.


    “Thank you.”


    Ste went to the cashier. The staff at the counter counted on aputer and said, “It’s 165, 842 dors.”


    She checked her bank ount. She had 235, 673 dors.


    “I’ll pay 230, 000 thousand in advance. If my mother passes away before the money is used up, please organize a funeral for her using the remaining money. If it’s not enough, you can call this number,” Ste exined.


    She paid the bill and handed over Wilson Chuck’s phone number.


    This was what he owed her mother.


    After Ste settled everything, she went to her mother’s ward.


    Celine didn’t seem to notice Ste. She hugged a pillow and murmured to herself, “Wilson, look, Ste is smiling. She is so smart. She is able to call me mom when she is just ten-months old. She can walk when she is thirteen-months old. She can recite all the Three Character ssics when she is two years old. She inherited your intelligence, but she is as beautiful as me.”


    Seeing Celine’s smile, Ste cried quietly.


    She had never seen her mother’s smile.


    She only saw her smile when she waspletely crazy.


    Wasn’t this ironic?


    If her family was happy, would she be as desperate as she was now?


    Unfortunately, she could only ept her fate.


    “Wilson, thank you for loving me. I will love you forever. I’m going to feed baby Ste now. You can’t look at me,” Celine said to the thin air. She lifted her clothes and pressed her pillow against her body.


    Ste sat in front of Celine.


    Celine looked at Ste warily and said, “Don’t take away my child. Go away.”


    Ste’s heart broke. She stroked Celine’s hair, leaned over, and kissed her on the forehead. She whispered, “Mom, I’m sorry. I can’t take care of you in the future. If there’s a life after death, I’ll still be your daughter. Thank you for everything you’ve done for me.”N?vel(D)ra/ma.Org exclusive ? material.


    Celine looked at Ste in confusion. “Wilson said he only loves me.”


    “Yes, he only loves you,” Ste replied.


    Celine smiled and said, “I knew that he only loved me. I didn’t have anything at that time. I was just an orphan. Wilson didn’t care about the objection of his family and married me. He really loved me.”


    Ste nodded, turned around, and went outside.


    She didn’t want to be as miserable as her mother in the future. She looked so pitiful.


    If she were to live in a dream right now, she might as well die in her dream.


    However, where can she go to die?


    Drowning was one of the most painful ways to die.


    The water would enter the nasal and oral cavities, fill up the heart and lung, and suffocate her.


    After that, her body would be swollen and emit a foul odor.


    Jumping off a tall building? It would be very tragic if the suicide wasn’t sessful. She would be disabled. In addition, it was too ugly to die like that.


    Consuming poison? Generally, it took two to three hours for the whole process to end.


    There was no dream at all.


    She thought of cutting her wrist.


    It wasn’t painful. She could take some sleeping pills and just fade into the darkness.


    If she lost too much blood, her face would be very pale. Fortunately, she could put on makeup.


    She could not allow herself to die in Eli’s ce. That would cause too much trouble for her.


    And she couldn’t die in the hotel and bring trouble to strangers.


    If she chose to die in the wilderness, she was afraid that someone would discover her while she before she could die. At the same time, she was also worried that her rotting body would smell awful if no one found her for a long time.


    She didn’t have a home, that means she didn’t have her own private area.


    After thinking about it, she realized that Wilson Chuck’s house was the ideal ce.


    She was Wilson’s daughter.


    Since she as his flesh and blood.


    She would let him be responsible for her.
