Chapter 24

Skyler had received a significant piece of news from a trusted source.

Caroline, who was deemed to be in a vegetative state by doctors, had regained consciousness briefly after several acupuncture sessions by the genius doctor, Wynn Even though she was only awake for less than a minute, as long as she had woken up the first time, she would surely wake up again.

Moreover, during Caroline's brief awakening, she uttered a sentence, "Don't hurt Willow."

Therefore, despite Xavier's deep hatred for Willow, being the doting husband he was, he complied with Caroline's words and refrained from sending Willow back to prison

The realization that Caroline might wake up again and expose the truth had Skyler feeling

g like a cat on a hot tin roof. She was so stressed that her hair started falling out.

She knew she had to do something.

Xavier hovered by Caroline's bedside almost constantly, leaving Skyler no opportunity to act.

Back in het ward, Skyler dialed Willow's number

Her voice dripped with arrogance, as though she was doing Willow a favor. "Willow, let's make a deal." The
