The police frowned. They were merely responding to a reported incident and had not even begun the interrogation.

Hence, they did not understand why Albert was so agitated. His reaction made him look even more suspicious.

"We'll conduct an investigation to find out whether you are involved in this case. Now, come with us to the station,"

said one of the officers.

And so, Albert was escorted away by the authorities in a state of bewilderment.

At the hospital, Stella watched intently, as the doctor carefully treated Xenia’s wounds. The sutures on her neck

were prominent.

"Cost is not an issue, doctor. Please make sure that there won't be any noticeable scars on her," Stella told the

doctor in a hushed tone.

"Don't worry. Since the wound isn't too deep, it shouldn't leave any scars," the doctor reassured her.

"Even if it does, it's no big deal. It's not like I need to be on camera or something," Xenia commented.

"No one wants a scar on their neck," Stella countered.

Xenia offered a wry smile.

Once the doctor had left, Stella voiced her concern. "You were too impulsive, Xenia. You're lucky that Sophia is both

gullible and driven by greed. What if she didn't believe you and had taken you to Albert? Have you considered the

consequences?"

Xenia replied in a soft tone, "I was betting on her greed.

Plus, I've set a scheduled text. Gina would have definitely reported me missing to the police if she wasn't able to

contact me. Worst-case scenario, I'd be tortured for a while. If it helps to get them locked up, it's worth the risk."

Stella thought otherwise. "You didn't need to go this far. It was dangerous," she sighed, not wanting someone else

to be in such situations because of her.

However, Xenia was grateful. ’Maybe to you, the help you provided me was just a small gesture. The reality is that it

pulled us out of the chaos. I'm determined to repay this favor no matter what."

Stella froze upon hearing that. 'I didn't know people can be this different. Some are grateful and eager to repay the

favor when shown kindness. Meanwhile, others are driven by greed and malice. They are never satisfied with what

you give them.'

Realizing that, Stella felt enlightened. 'I guess it's never wrong to be kind. There's no need to question the act of

doing good just because of a few bad apples.'

"You should lay low and rest up for now. No one will find you here. Once everything is settled, I'll make

arrangements for whether you want to continue your studies or start fresh in another city."

"Thank you," Xenia expressed her gratitude.

After chatting for a while longer, Stella urged Xenia to get some rest and left the room.

Keegan was standing in the corridor waiting for her. The sunlight shone through the window, casting a golden glow

on his profile. He looked incredibly handsome.

Hearing the door close, Keegan turned his head and saw Stella. His cold expression instantly melted, as he smiled

and asked, "Shall we go see the doctor?"

Stella gathered her thoughts and walked briskly toward him. She wrapped her arms around his waist and tiptoed to

give him a peck on his chin. "I have an idea," she said in a low voice.

Keegan was flustered by her sudden boldness. He instinctively held her closer and asked, "What is it?"
