Chapter 9
Over the next two days, Kathy didn’t go out.
All the necessary information has been gathered, the only thing left is the final organization.
After pulling an all–nighter again, Kathy’s face was a bit swollen and pale, with two obvious dark circles under her eyes.
The good news is that her new project has been fully organized and can be submitted to the teacher for review at any time.
As long as the review is approved, she will be able to leverage higher power to get rid of Justin!
The beautiful dream had only been half done when the door was knocked loudly, and even the doorbell was ringing urgently.
Through the peephole, Justin, with sweat all over his face, stood outside the door.
Kathy really wanted to pretend that no one was home, but after a moment of hesitation, she decided to open the door.
“Lucy got into trouble, come with me!”
Justin grabbed Kathy’s hand and pulled her away, completely ignoring the fact that she was only wearing a thin nightgown.
Seeing her struggling hard, he simply lifted her onto his shoulders and carried her away.
The black Maybach headed straight to the hospital.

It wasn’t until the needle was about to touch Kathy’s vein that Justin said to her, “Lucy had a miscarriage and is at risk of hemorrhaging. You have universal O–type blood, so I’ll need your help.”
Kathy felt like she was in an ice cave and suddenly tried to get up.
“Justin, did you want to donate blood to the hospital but couldn’t afford it?”
“Lucy has always been nourished by your blood, so it’s only natural for her to draw from you.”
The words that Justin blurted out caused Kathy’s mind to go blank for a
moment.
What was he saying?
Did her blood sustain Luciana?
The words have been spoken, like water spilled cannot be gathered up.
Justin decided to come clean.
“Lucy suffered from severe anemia, losing a lot of blood after each menstrual period. It was thanks to your monthly donation of 300cc of blood that she was able to safely get through each menstrual cycle.”
Every word he said, Kathy heard clearly, but when put together, they just couldn’t be connected into understandable sentences.
There was a sharp pain between the elbows.
When she was distracted, the needle for blood collection couldn’t wait and pierced in.
She was pressed on the shoulders, held around the waist, and forcibly fixed on the table to have her blood drawn.

The doctor recommended 200-400cc, but Justin was afraid it wouldn’t be enough. He insisted on extracting 600-800cc, but the hospital was worried about the responsibility and reluctantly took 600cc.
When she came down from the platform, Kathy fainted directly.
Upon waking up again, I had already returned to my own apartment.
She gritted her teeth, endured the spinning dizziness, and almost crawled to get the computer.
The well–organized topic was packaged and compressed, then sent to the teacher’s email, as if all her energy had been exhausted.
Kathy trembled as she pressed the number that rolled off her tongue backwards. Before she could speak, she was plunged back into darkness.
She couldn’t wait to get divorced and leave that man.
