My eyes were full of helplessness and fear, but Lucas’s eyes were cold and emotionless. He ignored my cries and forcefully inserted the needle.
“What are you yelling about? You’ve been reviving for three years. How could you possibly die this time? It’s just an excuse because you don’t want to give blood!”
“I’m not, I-”
I wanted to say more, but he stuffed a bandage into my mouth.
dition I don’t have the patience to listen to your wailinot”

“Stop making noise! Lily is already in critical condition. I don’t have the patience to listen to your wailing!”
I could only make muffled whimpers, which only earned me a-
“Your pleas are useless to me. Don’t waste your energy.”
“After this blood transfusion, I’ll take you out to play. Stop making a fuss.”
Lucas thought I would calm down after hearing this, but I continued to wail.
He got angry and was about to scold me when he was interrupted by a phone call.
This call seemed very important, making him stand up.
“I have an urgent matter to attend to. I need to go out for a while. Take good care of Lily, and don’t make any mistakes!”
Then, without even glancing at me, he slammed the door and left.
I kept wailing, but he didn’t look back.
Lily White had woken up at some point and started mocking me.
“Stop yelling. He only loves me. Even if you scream until your throat bleeds, he won’t let you go.”
Although I had no strength left, I still shook my head frantically at her. Lily White instructed the doctor: “You, remove the bandage from her
mouth.”
The doctor removed the restraint from my mouth, and I could finally speak.
“Please, Miss White, tell the doctor to stop. I’m really about to die…”
I struggled to beg her humbly.
But Lily White just laughed and looked at me as if I were an insect-
“Why should I save you? Do you know how jealous I am when I see healthy women like you? I’d rather see you drained, exhausted, and tortured until you’re as sickly as me!”
My heart sank: “Lily White, how can you think like that?”
“Why not? To tell you the truth, my illness isn’t actually that serious. I don’t really need blood transfusions.”
“But I’m still different from normal people. I can’t get pregnant, can’t drink alcohol, can’t do extreme sports, and I have to endure various rejection reactions.”
“Why? Why can you do all these things! I feel so unfair, so I started pretending to be sick. Lucas cares about me so much that he specifically has young girls give me blood.”
“Seeing you become as sickly as me because of the blood transfusions makes me so happy!”
Hearing the truth, I was shocked and terrified.
“Lily White! Aren’t you afraid Lucas will find out?”
She laughed as if she had heard the biggest joke: “So what if Lucas finds out? Do you think he would believe you? Look at how he treated you just now!”
A wave of despair washed over me. Yes, Lucas would never believe me.
But even so, I still clung to my last hope and begged her.
“Please, let me go. I really will die this time…”
Of course Lily White didn’t believe me either.

Of course, Lily White didn’t believe me either.
“What are you pretending for? Everyone knows you’ll revive immediately after you die! Doctor, drain her blood thoroughly! Don’t leave a single drop!”
Then, I felt the blood being drawn faster and faster. My pleas became weaker and weaker, and I lost all strength and sensation.
An hour later, I closed my eyes forever.
Lily White was still not satisfied: “Hmph, dead already? How boring. Take her away!”
The doctor undid my restraints, but when he touched my skin, he drew back his hand in shock.
“What are you waiting for? Hurry up and take her away!”
But the doctor said in shock: “Something’s wrong… This isn’t right. She used to revive immediately after dying, and her body would have the warmth of a living person. But why is she… why is she so cold today!”
Lily White didn’t take it seriously: “Tch, it’s probably just too cold. She’s not warming up as quickly.”
But the doctor was a professional. He quickly realized the seriousness of the situation and hurriedly used instruments to examine me.
No heartbeat, no breathing.
All organs had ceased functioning.
The doctor finally panicked: “Miss White, it seems she wasn’t lying. This time… she’s really dead!”
Lily White sat up in shock: “What did you say? Dead? Really dead?”
“Yes, there are no signs of life at all!”
“This Aria Sanders really did only have 100 lives!”
“What should we do now? Should we tell Mr. Turner?”
“What’s there to tell! Drag her body out and burn it!”
The doctor hesitated: “Burn it? Shouldn’t we… shouldn’t we at least inform Mr. Turner?”
“What’s there to inform? I’m so important to Lucas. My word is as good as his, isn’t it?”
The doctor could only nod and drag my body away.
As night fell, Lucas finally returned. He first went to Lily White’s room and grasped her hand.
“Lily! How are you?”
Lily White still had that sickly appearance, falling into his arms.
“Cough cough… Lucas, I’m fine. Don’t worry too much about me.”
Lucas hugged her lovingly: “How can I not worry about you! I was busy outside earlier, but my mind was full of thoughts of you!”
“Lucas, what were you busy with outside? Why is there an injury on your shoulder!”
Lily White touched his shoulder worriedly, but he avoided her touch.
“It’s nothing, don’t worry. A batch of our goods was hijacked. Without that batch, our brothers might not make it to next year, so I rushed to intercept it.”
“I’m sorry I left you because of work, but the situation was really urgent just now…”

Lily White quickly said understandingly: “It’s okay, I’m better now. You don’t need to worry about me-”
“That’s good.”
Lucas then stood up, preparing to go to my room to check on me.
Lily White quickly stopped him: “Wait! Lucas-”
“What’s wrong?”

Here’s the translation of the remaining part of the novel:
“I… I’m not feeling well today. Can you stay with me for the night?”
He smiled, “Of course. Let me check on Aria first, I’ll be right back.”
Lily quickly grabbed him and started to smear dirt on my name-
“Lucas, don’t go. Aria has already run away.”
