TimeNovelChapter 360
Finnian rushed to the hospital as fast as he could. At the entrance to the ICU, he found Jenny pacing back and
forth, her anxiety palpable. The moment she saw Finnian, she clung to him like a lifeline, her voice trembling
with tears. "Finn, thank God you're here..."
He steadied her, speaking gently. "Tellwhat happened to Liliana. Try to stay calm."
Jenny swallowed hard, struggling to compose herself. "I-l went to bring her dinner just now, and you won't
believe what | saw. There was blood everywhere. Liliana... she tried to slit her wrists..."
Her voice broke. "She was so pale, Finn, she looked like she was already dead. | just sat there on the floor and
sobbed until the nurses crunning. They took her straight into the ER..."
Jenny's words cout in choked fragments, but Finnian understood. He stared up at the red emergency light
over the surgery doors, his brow creased in worry, unable to speak.
After what felt like an eternity, the doors finally opened. A nurse stepped out, pulled down her mask, and said,
"She's stable now. There's no need to worry. We'll move her to a regular room soon, and I'll cby to explain
her condition."
Liliana was wheeled past them, ghostly pale against the white sheets. Finnian and Jenny followed as she was
transferred to a private room, where they waited together on the small couch.
About half an hour later, the anesthesia wore off. Liliana's eyes fluttered open, her face nearly translucent from
blood loss.
Finnian strode over to her bedside, searching her face for any sign of color or life. "How are you feeling?" he
asked softly.
"Finn..." The moment she saw him, tears streamed down her cheeks.
"Why are you here?" she sobbed. "Didn't you say you didn't wantanymore? Why did you come?"

"Don't cry. I'm here now."
"But you still want to leave me." Liliana gripped his hand fiercely. A thick bandage was wrapped around her wrist,
fresh blood already seeping through-evidence of how deep the wound had been.
She clung to him, desperate, refusing to let go. "Finn, do you have any idea how miserable | am? No one's ever
liked me, not even when | was a little girl... My childhood was a nightmare."
While they spoke, Jenny slipped out to find the doctor. Left alone, Liliana let her pain pour out, unfiltered.
"My parents act so loving now, but that's only because I'm successful. When | was a kid, they abusedThey
used to hitall the time. We could barely afford to eat, but it was always my fault, somehow-bwas the one
they blamed..." s

Finnian knew, deep down, that he owed Liliana his life. Even if she ever did try to use that debt against him, he
would have no grounds to refuse.
