Finished\u00a0<\/p>\n
Sabrina hadn\u2019t visited in some time, and Vanessa was genuinely feeling her absence. In her young mind, she\u2019d convinced herself that if she could help solve Vincent\u2019s and Sabrina\u2019s problems, they might finally make more time for her.\u00a0<\/p>\n
She never anticipated Scarlett would refuse to help.\u00a0<\/p>\n
Vanessa couldn\u2019t shake the growing conviction that Scarlett had become a completely different person.\u00a0<\/p>\n
She sat curled on the sofa, looking small and forlorn, her spirits sinking with each passing\u00a0<\/p>\n
moment.\u00a0<\/p>\n
From the kitchen, Scarlett watched Vanessa\u2019s melancholy expression with a bitter sense of irony.\u00a0<\/p>\n
She had declined to help, and Vanessa hadn\u2019t even pretended to accept it-she\u2019d simply withdrawn.\u00a0<\/p>\n
Scarlett released a quiet, humorless breath. After preparing the meal, she moved to wash her hands.\u00a0<\/p>\n
If Vanessa didn\u2019t truly want her there, what was the point in staying?\u00a0<\/p>\n
When Scarlett emerged from the kitchen, she instructed Lily, \u201cThe fish are ready to be steamed. Please make sure Vanessa eats when they\u2019re done. I need to leave-I have things to attend to.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n
Lily frowned, watching Scarlett prepare to depart. \u201cMrs. Stewart, won\u2019t you be staying the night?\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n
Scarlett was already removing her apron as she responded, \u201cNo.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n
Vanessa heard Scarlett\u2019s decision but made no attempt to persuade her to stay.\u00a0<\/p>\n
Scarlett collected her belongings and moved toward the entrance,\u00a0<\/p>\n
Just as she reached the doorway, she nearly collided with Vincent and Sabrina entering together.\u00a0<\/p>\n
Scarlett barely acknowledged them, attempting to step around, but Vincent suddenly seized her arm. \u201cI need to speak with you.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n
Scarlett turned to face Vincent, her voice frosty. \u201cIf this is about Nolan, save your breath. I\u2019m not Nolan-I can\u2019t make his decisions, and I have no right to.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n

With that, she pried his fingers from her arm.\u00a0<\/p>\n
But then Sabrina positioned herself in front of her. \u201cMs. Theron, Vincent values your opinion highly. He\u2019ll listen to you. Daniel is in the hospital, so distressed it\u2019s affecting his health. For Vincent\u2019s sake, couldn\u2019t you help?\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n
Unlike Vincent\u2019s direct approach, Sabrina adopted a humble, pleading manner.\u00a0<\/p>\n
Scarlett refused to even look at Sabrina. She said simply, \u201cMove.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n
But Sabrina held her ground. \u201cMs. Theron, I\u2019m begging you. Don\u2019t you care about Daniel at all?\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n
Scarlett\u2019s eyes fixed on Sabrina, her voice sharpening. \u201cI said move.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n
Sabrina spread her arms, blocking the path. \u201cI\u2019m not moving.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n
Scarlett didn\u2019t hesitate-she pushed Sabrina\u2019s shoulder firmly, forcing her aside.\u00a0<\/p>\n
The way was clear now, but as Sabrina stumbled backward, she must have lost her footing or caught her shoe on something.\u00a0<\/p>\n
She fell to the ground, her hand scraping against sharp gravel, blood immediately blooming on her palm.\u00a0<\/p>\n
Scarlett froze momentarily, taken by surprise.\u00a0<\/p>\n
But Vincent reacted instantly. He crouched down, took Sabrina\u2019s hand, and upon seeing the blood, urgently began dabbing at it with his white shirt sleeve.\u00a0<\/p>\n
Scarlett had been married to Vincent for five years-she knew his fastidious nature when it came to cleanliness.\u00a0<\/p>\n
Yet now, he seemed completely unconcerned about the blood staining his expensive clothing.\u00a0<\/p>\n
When true love exists, all rules are forgotten.\u00a0<\/p>\n
Scarlett watched the scene unfold, her eyes suddenly burning with unshed tears.\u00a0<\/p>\n
Vincent\u2019s devotion was so palpable, so undeniable.\u00a0<\/p>\n
This was just a minor incident, but didn\u2019t genuine love reveal itself in these small moments?\u00a0<\/p>\n
Vincent carefully cleaned the blood and dirt from Sabrina\u2019s hand with his sleeve, then gently blew on the wound.\u00a0<\/p>\n
Sabrina winced, tears gathering in her eyes, her fragile appearance enough to soften any heart.\u00a0<\/p>\n

He looked at her, his voice tender with concern. \u201cDoes it still hurt?\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n
Sabrina pressed her lips together and shook her head. \u201cVincent, I\u2019m alright. The pain is manageable.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n
Vincent helped her to her feet. \u201cLet\u2019s go inside and properly clean that wound.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n
Sabrina\u2019s tears finally overflowed. \u201cVincent, I\u2019m useless. I couldn\u2019t help Daniel.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n

Finished\u00a0<\/p>\n
Vincent gently wiped the tears from her cheeks. \u201cIt\u2019s not your fault. You did everything you could.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n
Sabrina continued blaming herself. \u201cI\u2019m a doctor. I graduated from the same prestigious school as you. But I can\u2019t perform this surgery. If I could, we wouldn\u2019t need to ask anyone. Vincent, I\u2019m just not competent enough.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n
Vincent reached out and softly stroked her hair, his voice comforting. \u201cYou\u2019re exceptional. Stop blaming yourself. If Daniel knew how you\u2019re feeling, he\u2019d be heartbroken.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n
Sabrina lowered her eyes, her cheeks flushing, guilt evident across her features. \u201cAlright.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n
