“Of course, I don't believe them, Raegan..." her grandmother assured her.

"I know you'd never do anything like that..."

Raegan's eyes brimmed with tears.

At this moment, her grandmother seemed to be struggling to say something, and her breaths became increasingly shallow.

Kendra hit the emergency call button to call for medical help.

“Prepare for emergency treatment!"

The nursing staff moved to wheel Raegan's grandmother to the emergency room, but Raegan's grandmother's grip tightened on Raegan's clothing.

Raegan leaned in quickly to catch her grandmother's final words.

“Raegan... I... I believe you... You have to live a happy life...

This... This is all my fault..."

As her grandmother finished speaking, her grip on Raegan's clothing began to weaken.

The room was thick with a weighty silence, punctuated only by the raspy breaths of Raegan's grandmother.

Raegan's grandmother was quickly wheeled into the ER.

Frozen, Raegan looked listless. She didn't know what to do. Her mind was in a muddle.

Hector took off his jacket and draped it on Raegan's shoulders. He looked down at her and asked, "You okay? Can you still walk?"

There was no color on Reagan's face. She looked like she was about to faint. Regardless, she stood up with her hands on the edge of the bed.

Her pupils were bright. However, the brightness was hollow.

“Thank you," Raegan said softly.

She was thankful that he preserved her grandmother's dignity.

After steadying her feet on the floor, she began to walk slowly.
