I blinked my eyes, contemplating the words Brian had mentioned earlier.
Curiosity ignited within me, prompting me to test the waters and gauge their knowledge of each other.
With a hint of intrigue, I uttered, âMy attending doctor is Brian
Foster.
â
âDamn it!â Melanyâs exclamation escaped her lips, seemingly involuntarily.
In the wake of her outburst, she quickly became aware of her lapse in decorum.
Awkwardly, she touched her head, expressing remorse as she remarked, âI suppose he simply wanted to bill you for the extra stay.
â
Amused by Melanyâs comical demeanor, I couldnât contain my laughter.
She raised her eyebrows, expressing a hint of skepticism, and inquired,
âWere you already aware of the connection between Brian and me?â
I didnât lie.
âYes, he has told me all about you.

Melany shrugged her shoulders and offered a helpless smile.
âMy ex-husband may not have been a great spouse, but I must admit he excels as a doctor.
If heâs your attending doctor, you wonât have to worry about anything besides money.
â
âIt sounds Like you know him very well.
â I agreed.

As I approached her, I noticed that she was sketching a scene of herself running joyfully on a grassy meadow, accompanied by her future child.
Emilyâs face Lit up with joy upon seeing me.
She eagerly pointed to the sign of Roz Town and exclaimed, âHome!â
With a mixture of emotions welling up within me, I tenderly caressed
Emilyâs head.
Despite Emilyâs mental challenges, she possessed an unwavering understanding that selling her home was not an option.
However, as the mayor of the town, Adam displayed a cold-blooded and ruthless nature.
He was willing to betray the town all for his own personal interests.
Indeed, it was a poignant irony.
