Sarah pondered for a moment and shook her head.
âNo, I only saw a few doctors and nurses passing by.
â
Ariana breathed a sigh of relief.
âWhatâs going on? You even changed your SIM card.
What happened between you and Theodore?â Sarah asked in a hushed tone.
Arianaâs eyes welled up with tears as she replied, âTheodore was monitoring my phone.
â
Ariana poured her heart out to Sarah, revealing everything that had transpired.
Upon hearing the truth, Sarah erupted in a fit of curses, âHow could Theodore stoop so low? Ugly or handsome, men are all capable of betrayal.
They all have their quirks.
Men are just terrible.
Theodore may be handsome, but why does he have to be so vulgar?â ©
Initially, Sarah hadnât thought much of Theodore hiding his past from Ariana.
After all, everyone had their own baggage and unforgettable experiences.
For men, itâs their first love, and for everyone, itâs their past.
However, upon learning about Theodoreâs surveillance of Ariana, a dark memory resurfaced in Sarahâs mind.
Sarah couldnât forget the painful memory of her ex-husband secretly installing surveillance cameras in her room and using the recorded footage to falsely incriminate her.
That experience had left her deeply sensitive and repulsed by any similar behavior.
Although Sarah had once had truly deep feelings for Lynch, she couldnât let go of the fact that he had invaded her privacy, invading her personal space with those invasive cameras and then shamelessly exploiting the footage to subject her to public criticism.
It was no wonder she couldnât stand Theodoreâs surveillance of Ariana.
âT used to think Theodore was a decent guy.
Ugh! I thought he genuinely cared about you.
Now it turns out heâs just a wealthy weirdo.
All looks and no substance,â
Sarah vented, her voice carrying a hint of anger.
Ariana couldnât tell if Sarah deliberately raised her voice to ensure others could hear her words.
âIf he truly loves you, why doesnât he trust you? Itâs becoming clear that there are no good men out there.
Their controlling ways are downright disgusting! It makes me want to puke!â ©
Ariana didnât know whether to burst into tears or burst out laughing in response to Sarahâs fiery outburst.
Suddenly, all her sorrow seemed to dissipate.

âYour boyfriend, Aziel, is a good guy.
Heâd do anything you asked of him,â Ariana interjected, trying to shift the focus.
sarah felt a pang of embarrassment and let out a dismissive snort.
âMen always put on a facade when they first start dating someone.

Arianaâs sadness resurfaced.
When she first met Theodore, she found him moody and unpredictable, but he had always shown her respect.
She never anticipated his manipulative behavior.
âWhatâs your plan now? How about taking a break from Theodore and giving yourself some space to think?â Sarah suggested, not wanting their relationship to end completely.
Despite Theodoreâs terrible actions, he had treated Ariana well.
After pondering for a moment, Ariana expressed her desire, saying, âI really want to get out of this hospital, but the problem is that Theodore is in the next ward.
The mere thought of his people secretly watching over me makes it impossible for me to relax and fall asleep.
I canât bear to stay in my apartment either.
My first step would be to return and gather my belongings.
â
Offering a solution, Sarah chimed in, âYou can come and stay at my place for now.
There are plenty of empty rooms, and we can be roommates.
â
Ariana nodded appreciatively, expressing her concern, âIâm just worried that âTheodore wonât allow me to leave the hospital so easily.
â © sarah flashed a reassuring smile and said, âHey, no need to stress.
Iâve got your back.
I promise Iâll make sure you can leave the hospital without any hassle.
â
Arianaâs injured ankle rendered her unable to walk normally, prompting Sarah to acquire a wheelchair to transport her to the garden for a brief stroll.
