Chapter 2 Olivia's heart clenched tight . She had never intended for them to find out about her cancer . But now , thanks to the doctor's words , they'd heard everything . Her fingers gripped the edge of the blanket , knuckles white . Somewhere deep down , an absurd flicker of hope stirred . Now that they knew , what would their reaction be ? Would they finally regret it ? Would they feel even a shred of guilt ? Would they hold her the way they used to and whisper , " Don't be afraid , Olivia " ? " Ring " The shrill ringtone cut through the moment , slicing off the doctor's explan Ethan answered the phone , only to hear Vivian sobbing on the other end . " Ethan … I fell . It hurts so much … " His expression changed instantly . " I'm on my way ! " Neither he nor Sebastian said another word . They simply tossed the doctor a command , " Get a nurse aide to look after her . Use the best meds . Make sure the blood loss is replenished . " And then they left without a backward glance . The doctor opened his mouth , wanting to call after them , but they had already disappeared down the corridor . With a sigh , he stepped into the room and approached Olivia's bed . " Miss Sinclair , the cancer's at an advanced stage . You need to start chemotherapy immediately . " He paused , then added gently , " Mr. Carrington and Mr. Sinclair didn't seem to hear the full diagnosis . Would you like to tell them yourself ? They might want to be by your side in what little time you have left . " Olivia let out a soft , bitter laugh . A tear slipped down her cheek in silence .

" The doctor hesitated , then gave a helpless nod and left the room . The next few days were pure agony . The painkillers were losing their effect . Olivia curled into herself on the hospital bed , her hospital gown soaked in cold sweat . And just then , as if the pain weren't enough , her phone rang . Ethan's voice was ice - cold . " It's just a little injury . How long are you planning to stay in the hospital ? Your punishment isn't over . Get back here . " Olivia's hands trembled around the phone . She knew they were only rushing her home so they could continue tormenting her while there was still time . Fine . Let them . She , too , wanted to know once she was broken beyond recognition and lying cold and lifeless and what kind of expressions would they wear ? She signed her own discharge papers , took a handful of painkillers , and returned to the place they still dared to call a " home . " But the moment she stepped inside the estate , the housemaids blocked her . "Miss Sinclair , Mr. Carrington and Mr. Sinclair said you've been in the hospital for days . God knows what bacteria or viruses you might've picked up . We need to disinfect you first , for Miss Locke's safety . " Before she could react , several maids grabbed her and threw her into the disinfection pool . " What the- ! " The chemicals stung her wounds like acid . Her body convulsed in agony . Blood seeped from her Chapter 2 9.09 % GoodShort D Drama [ ENG DUB ] Stunning Them All at the Dimissal Banquet 4.9 FREE Google Play INSTALL … reopened injuries , staining the water red . Panicked , the maids screamed and ran off to call for Ethan and Sebastian . By the time Ethan rushed in , Olivia was half - unconscious from the pain , her face deathly pale and drenched in cold sweat . Her lips were bitten bloody . His pupils contracted . Instinctively , he reached out to pull her out . " Ethan ! " Sebastian grabbed his wrist , holding him back . His voice was low . "Did you forget our plan ? " Ethan's hand froze in midair . " I know you still care about her , " Sebastian said quietly , his tone terrifyingly calm . " But she's only got a month left . " " She needs to suffer enough to never dare hurt Lillian again . " He paused , then added with a touch of softness , " I'm her brother . I feel for her too . But for Lillian's sake , we have to be ruthless . " Ethan's fingers trembled , but in the end , he withdrew his hand . Soaked in blood - tinted water , Olivia watched through a haze as they both turned and walked away . What a joke . She was dying . And all they cared about was whether or not she'd hurt Lillian again in the future . She spent the entire night submerged in that chemical bath . By dawn , the maids came to drag her out like a piece of garbage and dumped her back into her room . Curled up in bed , Olivia trembled with every breath . Only when the pain dulled slightly did she force herself to sit up . She began packing her belongings . If she was going to die , she wanted to leave cleanly . She didn't want to leave behind even a trace of herself in this place .

She pulled out all the things she had once cherished : old photographs , journals , the gifts Ethan had given her . One by one , she threw them into the fireplace . The flames devoured the fragments of her past , just as they devoured what little remained of her . Just then , the door creaked open suddenly .
