“Violet, what are you trying to pull aw? In that situation, Vanessa has a heart cond, who was way with away? We were already rescued, there was going to lead team of rows. Why didn’t you just flew the bar a to beave because I had a billion dollar project of Har company. Your job to pay much at you suportalente You haven’t answered my calls for day!”
I listened calmly as he poured out his frustrations, there was a bint of concern in his wow, only nation, every word was talking down to the while defending Vanessa.
When he finally finished pouring, I hoarsely said, Tm in the hospital. But before I could finish, he interrupted
“Violet, can you stop using such pathetic tricks to get my attention? Always trying to get the attention, you’re disgusting Youre doing this because you never believed that Vanessa and I were inocent, right? Why is your mind so nasty? who wer Vanessa always says you’re full of schemes.”
Then he hung up. When I called him back, I found out that he had blocked me
I laughed at myself and found a caregiver.
I wasn’t going to neglect my health just because Lucas wasn’t worth it.
I stayed in the hospital for 20 days. During that time, Lucas didn’t call me even once,
I had surgery to remove the steel rod from my leg. Although I might have a slight limp, my leg was saved, and for that, I was grateful.
After these things happened, I decided to start loving myself more.
20 days later, I was discharged from the hospital, but unexpectedly, I received a call from Lucas
When I answered, he asked, “Violet, have you reflected on what you did wrong?”
“Why should I reflect?” I replied coldly.
Lucas was taken aback by my tone, then softened his voice:
“We are the ones in a relationship. Vanessa and I have always been innocent, but you always make a fuss. That was a Landslide, and she was so scared, plus she had a heart condition. I just hoped you’d be more understanding”
The more he spoke, the more justified he sounded, perhaps even convincing himself.

He they said. “I know I was wrong to leave you behind that day. I’ve booked a restaurant. Let me take you out to dinner?”
His tone wasn’t particularly sincere, but after being with him for so many years, I knew this was his way of making amends.
But after experiencing the moment of death and leaving me at that moment by him, I no longer had any hope for Lucas.
During my hospital stay, I reflected on my past with Lucas and realized that when you invest too much in a relationship, you become afraid of losing it, and end up becoming excessively submissive.
I had spoiled Lucas too much, letting him punish me whenever he wanted, and making me suffer whenever he wished.
the past, whenever he offered a vague reconciliation, I would immediately take the opportunity to make up with him. ignoring the real issues between us.
That’s why h
his friends never thought highly of me, seeing me as nothing more than a pushover.
And they were right–if I weren’t such a pushover, how could Lucas treat me with such disregard?
When he suggested dinner, I suddenly felt a sense of peace and said, “Come pick me up from the hospital”
He seemed to freeze, probably remembering the time he accused me of using underhanded tactics to get his attention, never expecting that I was truly in the hospital
He insisted on coming to pick me up with a gentle tone..
But I waited for a long time until it got so late. I eventually took a cab home, ate takeout, and never saw any sign of Lucas.
I packed up my things with my injured leg.
I saw that Vanessa had posted a picture of a candlelit dinner: “I knew you’d always be there when I needed you.”
Looking at the seemingly romantic picture, I suddenly felt a sense of release.
In Lucas’s heart, I would never compare to Vanessa. As long as Vanessa was around, I would always be the one left behind.
I went from being mad every time that happened, until now, making a scene to accepting it as normal. After experiencing the moment of death, I suddenly felt it was all so meaningless.
Why should I in the prime of my life, let a man decide my fate?
