The doctor's words echoed in Thalia's ears once again.
"Miss Cloude, you have stomach cancer. You must have an operation as soon as possible, or else you might die in less than three months."
Outside the door, the sound of Adam's footsteps gradually faded away. Clearly, he did not intend to come in and check on her. He certainly did not care why she suddenly rushed into the bathroom.
Thalia slumped by the toilet and smiled weakly.
Yes, she had indeed less than three months to live, and her dying wish was to get a wedding dress.
It was because a long time ago, Adam had promised her that she would wear a wedding dress designed by him at their wedding...
"Buzz—"
Suddenly, Thalia heard a buzzing sound. She took out her phone and saw the caller ID on the screen. It was a call from her mother.
Ever since Agnes's accident, it was the first time her mother called her.
She pursed her lips and pressed the answer button.
Mrs. Cloude's voice came from the other end of the phone. "Thalia, your sister's treatment will be complete tomorrow. We haven't gathered together as a family for a long time. You must come home for a reunion dinner."
It turned out that Agnes had come back. No wonder her mother reached out to her!
Thalia clenched her fists tightly. After a long while, she slowly replied, "Okay."
It was time for her and Agnes to settle their feud.
The next day, she put on thick makeup so that she did not look frail and sick. Then, she rushed to the Cloude family's mansion.
As soon as she pushed the door open, she saw Agnes sitting in a wheelchair and staring at her. Her gaze was venomous.
"Thalia, we haven't seen each other for three years, but you still look as good as the last time I saw you. It seems that your life as a rich man's wife is very comfortable!"
Agnes's sneer made the look on Thalia's face instantly turned grim.
Her facial expression changed. Suddenly, she held the armrests of her wheelchair, struggled to stand up, and unexpectedly fell onto the ground. She grabbed Thalia's skirt and pleaded in a pitiful voice, "Thalia, please don't be angry with me. Please forgive me. It's all my fault. I shouldn't have come back..."
Thalia frowned. She did not understand what Agnes was up to.
However, in the next second, a shadow loomed over her. She sensed an oppressive aura behind her.
"Thalia Cloude, what are you trying to do this time?!"
Adam grabbed Thalia by the wrist and squeezed it in his hand.
"Agnes has finally recovered. If you dare to harm her again, I'll kill you!"
Agnes shook her head while crying. "Brother Adam, don't be mad at Thalia. I fell because I was too clumsy. I haven't seen her for a long time and I miss her so much... Adam, we're finally able to gather here as a family. Don't get mad at her over such a petty matter, please?"
Adam glanced at Thalia coldly and flung her hand away. Then he bent down to help Agnes up gently and carefully.
Thalia's face was pale, and she started to falter...
