The man outside seemed to have stood for a while after changing. Just when Sonya thought he would push open the bathroom door, he went out of the bedroom.
As the sound of footsteps faded away, Sonya finally breathed a sigh of relief.

She hurriedly grabbed them and then opened the door, only to find that the hallway was still She tiptoed out, sticking to the wall as she walked outside. Just as she reached the exit of the hallway, she could already see the apartment door, but at that moment, the sound of footsteps grew closer.
Sonya glanced around in a hurry and quickly hid in ”
the nearest room.
This was a study. The curtains were drawn, and it was a bit dark inside. The sound of footsteps was getting closer and finally stopped before the room door, and then the doorknob turned. Seeing that the door was about to open, Sonya instinctively bumped into it and closed the door. The person outside became quiet for a moment and then asked, “Dad, are you inside?” Sonya’s heart was in her throat, her nervous fingers trembling. She regretted that she hadn’t shown herself.
“Did
you cry again?” Came a sigh from outside.
“Did you have lunch?”
Henry spoke a few words and left.
As soon as he left, Sonya quickly opened the door, but just as she stepped out, Henry asked- again,“Dad, what about I make you some pasta?”
Sonya quickly got her foot back. It was an open kitchen and was right at the corner of the hallway, so as soon as she showed her face, Henry would be able to see her.

With this in mind, Sonya could only close the door, thinking that he would definitely go back his office. Once he left, she could leave.
She waited for fifteen minutes before the door was knocked on
“Dad, I made pasta for you. Open the door and take it.”

Sonya let out a breath and then stood at the door, opening a crack. The crack was only wide enough for a plate to come in.
Henry said, “Alright, I won’t
go in,
in, but you have to finish it. I’ll come to get back the plate later.” A plate of steaming seafood pasta was pushed in, and Sonya reached out to grab it before immediately closing the door.
It looked and smelled familiar, and Sonya was indeed hungry.
Thinking that Henry would come to take the plate later, she decided to eat on behalf of Benjamin. So, she picked up the plate and started eating by the door.

*Is it good?” asked Henry outside.

As she didn’t answer, Henry said again,“If it’s delicious, knock on the door three times.” Sonya knocked three times honestly. Then Henry burst out laughing. It was only then that she realized something was wrong. Would Benjamin really play such a childish game with Henry?
Did he know it was her?
“I am going to the office. Just take your time,” he said. After that, there was silence outside for a while, followed by the sound of footsteps fading away, and finally, the door was closed.
Sonya ate the plate of pasta with mixed feelings, then came out of the study, and, as expected, there was no one outside.
When Sonya returned to the ward, Benjamin had already curled up on the sofa and fallen asleep, while Taylor
Taylor lay on the bed, sideways, staring at him without blinking.
Your blue pajamas.” Sonya placed the pajamas next to Taylor.
Taylor looked at the pajamas and laughed, “There’s nothing special about them.”
“You did do this to piss off Benjamin,” Sonya snorted.
Taylor glanced at Benjamin again and asked, “Did he hide and cry again?”
“Well, you
know how scared he was of losing you.”
“I know.”
“Then why wouldn’t you go along with the treatment?”
Taylor sighed and looked at Sonya.“You know that I need chemotherapy, right? It will make my hair fall out, and I will look like hell. Moreover, it is a very painful process.”
“But there was hope for a cure for this illness.”
“My mother also had stomach cancer. I witnessed her wither from the prime of her life, undergoing multiple surgeries, being connected to tubes, suffering in agony, and finally begging her family to let her go. She endured endless torment, losing her dignity and grace, but in the end, she still died. If it was destined for her to die, why did she have to suffer all this, torturing herself and her family?”
Taylor looked at Benjamin again, and then at his hands, which were blistered from cooking for her.
Obviously, Taylor had thought a lot and very thoroughly, and it was not easy to change her mind. Sonya stayed with Taylor for the whole night and
and left in the morhmg.
She had just driven the car out of the parking lot when Calvin called and asked her to hurry back to the clinic.
Sonya returned to the clinic and saw many neighbors gathered outside, discussing something.
She walked over to see a tall man with a buzz cut with a teenage boy standing at the entrance of the clinic, shouting inside, “You bastard, how dare you call my son a thief? I’ll rip your tongue
out!”
He cursed while kicking the door repeatedly.
The door was locked from the inside, and Calvin stood in the courtyard with a somber face. Sonya squeezed to the front and asked the man to calm down.“I am a doctor at this clinic. Tell me
100.0%

what’s going on.”
The man had a fierce expression on his face, especially when he saw Sonya, his gaze sharper.
“Woman, are you also with the coward inside?”
Sonya frowned and said, “Please watch
mouth!”

“You want me to watch my mouth when you accused my son of stealing?”
“So what exactly happened?”
The man pushed his son forward and said, “This is my son, does he look like a thief to you?”
Sonya looked at the child. He was thin and tall, with a pointed chin. His two big eyes protruded outward because he was too thin. The clothes he was wearing were dirty. At this moment, as Sonya looked at him, his gaze was as cold as his father’s.
“Sonya, they had just rented a place across from our clinic and moved in yesterday. This child sneaked into our yard in the morning and stole pomegranates…”
“You say the word ‘steal‘ again?” the man said,
man said, kicking the iron gate twice. Calvin’s face turned red with anger. Seeing Sonya shaking her head at him, he managed to suppress his anger and said, “He came to pick pomegranates, but I didn’t let him. So he picked up a stone from the ground and threw it at our window.”
Sonya looked towards the window of the west room and indeed, it broke a piece. “I didn’t catch him, so I went to his house to talk to his father. However, not only was his father unreasonable, but he also said the boy tripped when I was after him and demanded that I pay for his medical bills!” Calvin was SO furious at
at this point.“Can you believe this?”
“If you
don’t agree, you’ll have to face my fist!” The man shouted at Calvin while raising his fist. After hearing Calvin’s words, the neighbors all stood on his side.
“That man is ridiculous.”
“Yeah, the boy clearly stole.”
“Like father, like son. His dad might be a thief too!”
These old people always said whatever they wanted. When the man heard it, he stared with dagger eyes and pointed around with his index finger, saying, “To tell you the truth, I just got gat of jail. If any of you dare to mess with me, I’m not afraid to go back in again!
As soon as they heard his words and saw his fierce expression, the neighbors were scared and quickly left.
The man snorted and looked at Sonya again.“Tell me, get beaten up by me?”
