The maid came upstairs again, her voice subdued. "Sir, Ava has arrived.” Mason held the diamond ring in his hand, quietly looking at it. Upon hearing this, he calmly said, "Ask her to wait for me downstairs.”
Ava sat in the grand hall on the first floor. When she came, she heard from the maid that Zoe had moved out, separating from Mason. She thought she would be happy about it, but surprisingly, she wasn't.
When Mason came downstairs. he had changed into a different outfit. He looked weary as he descended, asking, "What's so urgent that you had to come to my home to discuss it?”
After saying that, he sat at the dining table to eat. Eating alone was always a bit desolate. He didn't have much of an appetite.
Feeling compelled, Ava carefully spoke up, "After the incident, Ms. Lilith has been asking to see you. However, you haven't answered her calls or visited her. She cut her arms again in the hospital. losing a lot of blood."
Still scooping the soup, Mason responded casually. "Is she still bleeding with her body in that condition?”
With those words, Ava understood Lilith'’s weight in his heart. She was about to ask how to handle it when Mason, while sipping the soup, continued, "Actually, I also have something to ask her.”

She laid pale on the bed, a needle in the back of her hand, receiving a blood transfusion. Carly attended to her on the side, constantly trying to comfort her, but Lilith was still sobbing softly.
The door was pushed open, and Mason walked in.
Dressed in a classic black and white suit, he appeared particularly cold and noble in the late night, contrasting sharply with the Wright mother and daughter.
He stood by the door, telling Ava to take Carly outside. "I want to talk to Ms. Lilith alone." Carly wanted to refuse, but she still went out.
The ward door closed. Inside, it became so quiet that it was almost suffocating.
Lilith's slendek.ring-adorned fingers gripped the bed sheets tightly. She looked anxiously at Mason, her voice stuttering. "Mr. Mason, I didn't mean for thafto happen. I just innocently thought the garden was beautiful, ancit held memories of mye cfildhood." Content belorigs to

Your life might notbe long, but you should think about your parents. They still have decades left to live."
His heartless words left Lilith stunned.
She looked at Mason, unable to believe he would treat her this way. She spoke with a choked voice, "Mr. Mason, have you forgotten that I was the one who awakened you that year? You once thought about marrying me—"
Mason interrupted her, "I married Zoe!"
Lilith, being a woman, was sensitive. Suddenly. she realized something.
