“Why do you care so much about his wife’s affairs?” Lucas looked at Sean disapprovingly. “Just do your job well.
Don’t ask too many questions.”
After saying this, Lucas didn’t say anything more and left the room.
Sean was left alone in this dark room. He sat on the ground, and tears welled up in his chubby face.
He rarely cried, but now he was worried about his mom, irritated with his dad, and at the same time, he missed his
godmother.
She had been so good to him. If something really had happened to her, then he hadn’t been able to send her off.
Sean recalled Ian Lemmington’s funeral. He clapped his hands together, and prayed, “Aunt Nina…”
His voice was choking. “Have a safe journey. When I get out of the training camp, I’ll make sure to send you off
properly.”

At this moment, Nina, who was already dead according to her beloved godson, kept sneezing uncontrollably.
She kept sneezing without stopping, and her nose started running. She took tissue after tissue, unknowingly
scratching her upper lip to the point of bleeding.
She didn’t notice the bleeding and continued to desperately wipe her nose with tissues, as if it was the only way to
calm her emotions. She clutched the tissue, and anxiously waited by the phone for any news from Diana.
Nina sat on the sofa in a daze, biting her lips. Her lips were close to bleeding at this point.
“Diana must be furious with me this time. She probably won’t contact me ever again.”
Vans sat across from her. Seeing Nina so dejected and sad, he felt uncomfortable too.
“Diana wouldn’t be angry with you,” he comforted her. He pushed some aspirin toward her. “Look at you, you have
a cold. Didn’t you know that?”
He urged her to take the medicine.
“If you don’t take the medicine, you’ll probably have a fever tonight.” Vans was quite displeased when he said this.
“Look at yourself, sneezing like this.”
However, Nina refused. “I won’t take it.”
She got up, and threw the aspirin that Vans had prepared in the trash decisively.
“I want to get a cold, and I want a severe one. Better yet, a fever that makes me delirious and has to go to the
hospital.”
She warned Vans, “You’re not allowed to give me medicine! I’ll go to the hospital!”
The idea of being hospitalized due to illness sounded severe, and perhaps Diana would no longer be angry with her
and would come to the hospital to see her.
By then, Nina was sure they wouldn’t argue anymore.

However, Vans disapproved this. He tore open another packet of medicine for her. “Hurry up and take this.”
If her health was ruined, she would be the one suffering.
Unable to tolerate Vans’s nagging and unable to argue with him, Nina had a sudden inspiration. She took off her
clothes, entered the bathroom, and locked the door.
With a click, the door was secured.
Then, she shouted loudly in the bathroom with a nasal voice, “I don’t care! I want to take a cold shower! I want to
catch a cold! I want a severe cold! I want to go to the hospital! I want to soften Diana’s heart. I want my best friend
to…sob…I want my best friend to stop being angry with me.”
“She wasn’t angry with you in the first place,” Vans said, infuriated by Nina wanting to take a cold shower. “If you
get yourself seriously ill, then she might get angry for real!”
“That’s impossible!”
Nina’s mind was filled with memories of her argument with Diana.
She was Diana’s best friend, but she had mocked Diana. She had used the things that wounded Diana and
everything she cared about in the past against her.
