Physical pain was merely temporary, but emotional trauma lasted forever.
This wasn’t what she wanted
“Samuel” Kylie raised her head and looked at him. Sick and weak, her delicate face was devoid of color

Hesitantly, Kylie said, “It you can’t treat me well forever, you should be thorough with it and not show me any kindness at all.
“I’ve been alone for far too long. I know how to cover up my vulnerabilities and take care of myself. Don’t give me hope only to snuff it out with your own hands later on down the road. That would make you the scummiest scumbag ever.”
Kylie blinked, her eyes big and bright. A fleeting light glinted in them, which gave her a bewitching look
Samuel was dazed for a briet moment, but he soon narrowed his eyes, and his expression quickdy tumed cold, mocking, and distant.
He sarcastically said, “I’m not treating you differently. I’m just making sure nothing happens to you before Grandpa is cured.

Before Samuel could stop her, Kylie haphazardly placed various foods on his plate and said, “There you go. Enjoy.”
On Kylie’s plate was a balanced portion of meat and vegetables–all thanks to the meticulous way Samuel had chosen the food for her. However, she hadn’t put the same thought into taking the food for him,
Samuel looked at his plate–which was full of vegetables–and trowned in displeasure.
Kylie noticed that he wasn’t eating and timidly asked, “Is the food not to your liking is it…
“It slipped my mind. You have gemmophobia.” Now that Kylie’s luck had changed for the better, she started noticing stuff like this. She hurriedly reached out and took another clean fork. “I’ll get you the food again”
Forget it.” Samuel coldly turned down her offer. Then, he slowly ate his plateful of vegetables.
