I fell into deep thought.
How could someone trigger the fire alarm for no reason?
There had to be more to the story.
Despite my doubts, I went to the flower shop and bought a bunch of lilies for Janiya.
Riley had told me where to look for Janiya, so I went straight to the VIP ward on the top floor of the hospital.
“She’s so rich that she can stay in a VIP ward,” Ivy said in a voice dripping with sarcasm.

She always hated Janiya, and her hatred only worsened with every interaction we had with her.
I felt helpless and tried to comfort her. “Think about it this way. Since she’s in a VIP ward, it means that she has the ward all to herself and no one will mistake who flowers are for. I can leave as soon as I drop the flowers off, no questions asked.”
Maybe Ivy thought that what I said made sense, because she didn’t say anything more.
As I approached the door to Janiya’s ward, I planned to leave the flowers at the door and then leave. But before I could set the flowers down, I heard some voices in the corridor.
“Honey, I’m so Lucky you’re always there for me.”
A sweet and pretentious voice suddenly came to my ears. I turned around and saw that Caleb was walking over with the injured Janiya in his arms.
The two behaved so intimately, like a real couple. With her arms around his neck, Janiya rested her head against his chest with a sweet, contented smile. Smiling slightly, Caleb Looked affectionately at the woman in his arms.
Although I had seen such a scene many times before, I still found it upsetting. “Doesn’t Caleb already know that you’re his mate? Why does he insist on staying with that dumb bitch?” Ivy complained.
She wasn’t wrong. I could forgive him for before since he didn’t know that I was his mate. But now that he was well aware, he still chose to be intimate with Janiya.
I didn’t care about his reasons. It hurt to see him with her.
With a darkened expression, I put the flowers down and turned to leave, but it was too late. Janiya had seen me.
“Debra, what’re you doing here?” she asked sharply.
At the mention of my name, Caleb also Looked over.
I had no choice but to answer honestly, “I came to visit you on behalf of Riley.”
Raising her eyebrows high, Janiya said proudly, “Well, although I don’t like you, I appreciate the gesture. Since you’re here on behalf of Riley, come to my ward and have a seat.”
