Chapter 71

Liam finished speaking and looked at me. "It's not as dramatic as a soap opera, but it's definitelypretty dramatic," he said.

Tagreed. The story was both dramatic and understated at the same time.

Before it happened to me, I always thought this kind of thing only occurred in TV dramas or novels. But once it happens to you, you realize that lite itself is the richest source of "So, did you come to me just to get back at than?"

Liam fell silent at my question. I wanted to ask, to get revenge on Ethan, how far would he go to hurt me in this life, but I couldn't bring myself to ask it. If I told them about my past life, they would probably think I was crazy. Lam paused for a moment before replying, "At first, yes. B

But not anymore."

He rubbed his temples and continued, "My mom's been in a terrible state lately. The physical pain is tormenting her, and her obsession has driven her to madness. It's torturing ber too."

"Loving too much and hating too much are both extremes," Liam added.

As he spoke, Ethan's worried expression began to soften i don't want to be caught in their love and hate. I have my own life. I'm not a product of their hatred."

The light in the emergency room went out. I stood up and said sincerely, "I hope you really mean that "

Sarah was wheeled out of the operating room, and Liam went to meet her. I stood up and walked out without looking back.

The morning sun pierced through the clouds, and in a comer Icouldn't see, Ethan stood there for what felt like an eternity.

I didn't get to school from the hospital until 9:30 am.

By then, everyone had already gone to class. I had been up for almost 24 hours straight, and my body was exhausted. So, Icalled in sick and went back to the dorm to rest. Tended up sleeping until the afternoon. When I opened my eyes and checked my phone, I saw that nothing urgent had come up just as I was about to get out of bed, my phone rang. When I answered the phone, Sharon's urgent voice filled my ears. "Evelyn, where are you?

A sense of worry gripped me. "I'm in the dorm. What's going on?"

"It's nothing serious," Sharon said quickly, "Just stay in the dorm and don't go anywhere. I'll be right back." Then, she hung up.

Sharon was usually pretty calm, but she sounded really anxious just now, What could have happened? I frowned, pulled my loose hair into a bun at the back of my head, and got out

of bed.

The next moment, my phone was flooded with WhatsApp notifications. I had very few contacts on WhatsApp and usually only chatted with Lyla

Thad muted all the class and activity group chats, so when I picked up my phone, I saw that all the messages were from the class group.

One by one, messages tagging me started popping up

""Evelyn, is what they're saying on the forum tree?"

"Evelyn, you're so shameless. That guy could be your father! How could you do that?"

"Evelyn, why don't you tell us how much you charge for a night?"
