“Yes.” Scott’s guard was down when Wilson suddenly grabbed a nearby flower vase and ruthlessly
smashed it on the back of his head.
Holding his bleeding head, Scott reached out to grab Wilson’s hand, his eyes filled with disbelief as he
gradually lost consciousness.
“You won’t die. I was careful with my strike, but I’m going to perform the surgery,” Wilson declared.
After settling Scott on the sofa, Wilson took a seat on his office chair, picked up his phone, and began
arranging for the surgery.

Wilson felt guilt wash over him.
“Liliane isn’t my daughter.
“I couldn’t bear to see Leah suffer in sadness.
