Chapter 333
Although Sadie had lost her legs, she still had eyes. She could clearly see how they had been treating her these past few days. They did stay in the hospital to take care of her, but they were always frowning.
If Sadle needed help with using the bathroom, they’d show their disgust. If she said her legs hurt, they’d say all amputees feel pain. Then, they’d ask her to just endure it and be considerate of them.
“Mom, we’ve been dedicated. We’ve put aside other things and work to focus on taking care of you in the hospital. How is that not being dedicated?
*One must act with a clear conscience and we are doing that. You’re the one who has been too irritable and sensitive these past few days,” Kenny said with a frown.
Maisy gently tugged on Kenny’s arm. “Kenny, don’t say that. Mom is in a bad mood right now, and we need to understand. She doesn’t want to be like this either. It’s my fault. I should’ve gotten a different
soup today.”
Sadie was already a patient, and the doctor had advised against eating indiscriminately. The soup had been sent over by the hotel at Maisy’s request. Despite her dedication, Sadie was still overly critical.
“Maisy, you’re so understanding,” Kenny said, looking at her tenderly. In his eyes, Maisy was like a pitiful, bullied young woman, while Sadie had become the evil stepmom.
As Sadie listened to their conversation, she suddenly remembered something. Her face grew paler.
They….
This scene felt familiar.
Skylar had been lying in the hotel for most of the day. After having lunch and taking her medicine, she felt
rejuvenated.
Joe had just sent her a message saying that Jenny’s surgery had been moved up to today. She replied
and told him to stay at the hospital without worrying.
There was a cinema next to the hotel, Bored from lying in the hotel all day, Skylar bought a movie ticket. She changed her clothes and headed over.
The cinema was almost empty, probably because it was a weekday.
Skylar watched a comedy. Besides her, there was only a couple. It was almost like having a private screening. Unfortunately, she couldn’t buy popcom since her stomach was still recovering.
The couple was seated two rows in front of her. Within a few minutes of the movie starting, they were passionately kissing, completely ignoring her presence.
Perhaps only those who were in true love and in throes of passion would kiss anytime, anywhere.
For some reason, Skylar felt a bit down. The movie was trying too hard to be funny. Normally, she’d easily

laugh. But now she didn’t find it funny at all,
Finding it unbearable, Skylar left the cinema early.
As she left, the couple finally noticed and exclaimed, “Oh, there was someone here! It wasn’t just us! She’s probably single and can’t stand us showing off our love.”
Skylar was speechless when she heard that.
After leaving the cinema, she checked the map and saw that the beach was nearby. She decided to walk there. She then found a quiet spot on the sand, sat down, and silently admired the ocean.
Since her stomach wasn’t in the best shape, she didn’t dare try any water activities.
Time seemed to stand still.
Suddenly, a shadow appeared in her view. Skylar looked up and turned to see who was standing behind her. When she saw who it was, her face darkened.
“Skye, we’re really meant to be together. Don’t you think so?” Christopher looked down at her with deep
affection.
Skylar’s expression turned cold. She didn’t hide her disgust for Christopher at all. “How did you know I
was here?”
