Chapter 72
Yanina picked up the prepared knife and pressed it against Callie’s face.
Tears streamed down Callie’s cheeks uncontrollably. If she could speak now, the first thing she’d say would surely be, Til give Cameron back to you, please don’t cut my face!” Her eyes were full of sorrow and pleading.
“You went after my man, but I’m not mad at you for that. If a man gets seduced away by another woman. I can only blame myself for not being capable enough
“But you should never have touched my friend!” Yanina said as the knife glided from Callie’s face, down to her neck, chest. and abdomen. Just as she was about to make her move, she noticed a hidden scar on Callie’s abdomen. If she wasn’t mistaken, it looked like a cesarean section scar.
Yanina frowned slightly. She couldn’t help but think of her past with Cameron. ‘Is the child hers and Cameron’s? she wondered. After a brief moment of shock, Yanina put the knife away. “I hope you remember this feeling, Callie. Not every time you secretly punch someone, they’ll silently endure it.
Today, I’m here to show you what karma truly means. I hope you’ll learn to be a better person in the future.”
Yanina grabbed Callie’s arm, and with a sharp crack, the bone dislocated. Callie’s other arm wasn’t spared from this fate either. After finishing, Yanina glanced at her wristwatch and slowly stood up. “Take care of yourself! If you dare mess with Yetta again. I won’t hesitate to take your life! With that, Yanina grabbed her things and swaggered out,
At the entrance of the nursing home, a Harley was parked, and in the shadows stood a tall, slender man. Yanina walked out, put on her helmet, mounted the Harley, and rode away smoothly
Cameron stroked his chin as he stepped out from the shadows. To make things casier for her, he had withdrawn all of Callie’s security, ‘Didn’t she wonder why everything went so smoothly? he thought.
Without a second thought, Cameron put on a helmet and chased after her on a Harley identical to Yanina’s.
The thrill of revenge left Yanina feeling light and free. She revved the engine, racing through the streets of Yvale. A few minutes later, she noticed another Harley following her.
Yanina, feeling playful, started making sharp turns and suddenly accelerating, but the bike behind her quickly adapted and kept up closely. Before long, Yanina realized that it wasn’t just one bike following her anymore, but also a yellow sports car. Yanina furrowed her brow, She just wanted to have a little fun, not to spark a midnight street race.
At this point, she had arrived near the university district. She hadn’t come around here much since graduating, but she was still very familiar with the winding alleyways. Without hesitation, she turned into one of them, and after a few sharp turns, the two tails behind her vanished from sight.
Cameron frowned as he looked at the yellow Bugatti Veyron. If hadn’t interfered, he could’ve played with Yanina a little longer. He slowly reduced his speed, and the yellow Bugatti also slowed down. Both vehicles came to a stop by the roadside. Cameron removed his helmet and looked toward the Bugatti.
The window of the Bugatti rolled down, revealing Gregory with his flamboyant magenta hair. He greeted Cameron with a smirk. “Well, well, it’s Mr. Zamora. What are you doing out here, chasing after a girl
“Aren’t you worried about your sickly ex–girlfriend anymore?”
If anyone in Yvale’s younger generation could rival Cameron, it would be Gregory, the eldest son of the prominent Harnett family. Known as a carefree playboy, Gregory had a stellar reputation when it came to managing the family business. Despite his frivolous public persona, he was the undeniable heir of the Harnett family, always compared to Cameron in the same circles and the two never saw eye i
Cameron snorted.

Gregory chuckled nonchalantly. I heard you and Yanina divorced?
to you when you two got married. I had my eyes on her pretty face.
“I won’t he to
Just happened to bump into you today, so I figured I’d give you a heads–up. Starting tomorrow, I’m going after Yanina!
“Being her rebound guy doesn’t bother me one bit!
“Remember to come when we get married With that, Gregory slammed the gas pedal, and the car shot off, quickly vanishing from sight
Cameron stood there, frowning deeply. Shawn is after her, and now Gregory has also joined? Why has she become so popular he wondered
At this moment. Yanina had already returned home. After sleeping for a short while, she got up to start preparing breakfast. After some thought she opened her livestream. “Good morning, everyone. My friend’s in the hospital, so I got up early today to make a meal for her, Yanina explained as she began by cooking some risotto. Then, she skillfully started kneading dough. “Today I’m making pasta, and since my friend is recovering from surgery. I’ll make sure to avoid adding anything spicy
The dough seemed to come alive in Yanina’s hands as her slender fingers deftly shaped a tray of pasta. If anyone’s
rested feel free to try this method. It’s really simple. I’ve posted the recipe below, and I hope everyone has a great day!”
Since it was so early, there weren’t many viewers in the livestream. Even so, Yanina noticed that her top supporter had just
more Carnival gifts.
As soon as she finished packing the breakfast, Yanina received a WhatsApp message from Shawn “How did you know I was
paused for a moment. Shawn is sick too? she woridered. After a moment of thought, she replied on WhatsApp: [You’re hurt? Which hospital? I’ll come visit you.
this pasta is for Yetta, though I can share some risotto with
you.]
Shawn sent a sad emoji: Looks like I was being too sentimental! I’m at Yvale Hospital. Just had a minor car accident, no big deal]
Tanita furrowed her brow. Yetta is also at Yvale Hospital What a coincidence! she thought. [Send me your room number.
come see you soon, she messaged Shawn.
After receiving the room number, Yanina packed an extra portion of risotto, grabbed it, and stopped by a flower shop to buy
bouquet belgre driving to the hospital
Aring at the hospital, she struggled with the large flowers in her arms and couldn’t knock, so she pushed open the door to Tema room. “Yetta, I’m here!” Yanina called out. But instead of her friend, there was a stranger inside.
“Who are your How can you barge in without knocking? My sweetheart’s still asleep. Get out!” a stern male voice boomed.
Sorry, I must ve entered the wrong room, Yanina awkwardly smiled and stepped out, thinking she must have made a ake. But when she checked the room number, it was correct, and so was the floor. Where has Yetta gone? Yanina wondered, serving the flowers down in the hallway and knocking on the door again
The man will farious, flung the door open and shoved Yamna back, “What do you think you’re doing? You’re disturbing my sweetheart’s rest. I’ll make you pay for this!” he snapped
Yahoo asked. “My friend used to stay in this room Where is she now?

The man’s eyes briefly showed a flicker of avoidance but quickly returned to normal
“How would I know where your friend went? Go ask the doctor! You’re so annoying!” the man said, clearly irritated, slamming the door shut.
Yanina carried the lunchbox over to the doctor’s office, where a few doctors were chatting away.
“Hello, Dr. Olson! I’m looking for Yetta. She was in room 1019 just yesterday,” Yanina said.
Elliot Olson quickly nodded and replied, “Ms. Fulbright, here’s the situation. A big shot arrived yesterday and requested the VIP room, so we had to move Ms. Clark to a regular room. Ms. Clark is in 1118. I’ll take you there.”
Yanina frowned, thinking. They moved a patient without notifying her family? It wasn’t just the doctor who didn’t tell me. Why didn’t Yetta mention it either?
She questioned, “Dr. Olson, is this the working style of the staff here? So when an important person shows up, we regular folks have to make way? A hospital is supposed to save lives. Do you really have to categorize people too?”
Elliot looked embarrassed and said, “I did talk it over with Ms. Clark, and she agreed. We didn’t force her!”
Yanina let out a disapproving sound and turned to leave.
Room 1018 was a standard ward with four beds. Yetta’s bed was by the door.
The bed in the middle was unoccupied, and near the window was an elderly lady.
“Yetta! Why didn’t you tell me you moved here? Yanina asked.
Yetta slightly lowered her head to avoid Yanina’s sharp gaze, saying. The hospital said a critical patient needed a quiet place to recuperate. And I’m getting much better. There’s no reason for me to stay in a VIP room, so I moved here. I was going to call you later, but I didn’t expect you to be up so early
Yanina heard the words “critical patient and remembered the anxious look on the man’s face earlier. It seemed that taking over the VIP room was out of necessity.
With a sigh of resignation, she picked up the insulated lunch box and said to Yetta, “I got up early to make your favorite pasta! There’s also risotto. Give it a try”
Yetta nodded with a smile, took the lunchbox, and started eating
Yanina checked the lime. “Shawn had a car accident. He’s at this hospital too. I’ll go see him and then head to the office. Call me if you need anything?
Yetta was busy eating her pasta and gave Yanina an OK gesture.
As a public figure, Shawn was staying in a special care unit on the top floor.
Yanina knocked on the door and went in. But it seemed she arrived at the
wrong tine.
As soon as she opened the door, she heard Shawn arguing with his assistant Scott.
“Fine. I can’t control you! Do whatever you want!” Scott shouted angrily at Shawn and turned to leave the room. As he passed by Yanina, he rolled his eyes at her and quickly walked away.
Yanina arranged the bouquet, looking at Shawn’s heavily bandaged head and raised leg. She couldn’t help but ask, “How did you injure yourself?”
