8 LetDie or Marry Me
Eka pondered. My future, my life-Lily had ruined it all. And yet all John had to say was that it didn’t matter, How
could he be so heartless?
“Lizzy, don’t cry”
Seeing Elsa's tears fall so violently, Simon couldn't bear it.
But he had to admit-John had a point. So he spoke gently, trying to soften the blow.
“What happened last night... you really crossed a line. An ectopic pregnancy is already dangerous. Why would
you throw yourself off a stage like that on purpose? And because you were trying to set Lily up, she ended up
getting brutally attacked. Hurting yourself just to hurt someone else that kind of self- destructive move went way
too far. Lizzy, stop using your body to manipulate people. It’s not helping anyone-not you, not them. And don’t
fall apart over the hysterectomy. You're seriously sick. Without a child, your body won't have to work as hard. If
you stick to the treatment plan, you might still have six months... maybe even longer.”
Too far? | shouldn't be upset about the surgery? Elsa’s eyes were bloodshot as she looked at Simon like he was a
stranger.
After a long silence, she asked in a trembling voice, “Simon, you think | brought this on myself too, don’t you?
That | deserved it?”
a
Simon did feel that way. But in her fragile state, if he said it out loud, it would only push her further. So he stayed
silent.
Elsa had always been proud. She didn’t lower herself to screaming like a fishwife, didn’t indulge in wild hysterics.
But now, the pain and despair in her chest were unbearable; she could no longer control her emotions.
Her voice cracked into a sharp, ragged scream. “Is that what all of you think? That just having a hysterectomy
was too light a punishment? That I should've just died instead?”
“Lizzy, that’s not what | meant...”
“That is what you meant!”
Elsa's voice cut him off, soaked in tears and grief. “You're all biased toward Lily. You all think I'll never measure
up to her.”

But | was outstanding, incomparable, how could I not be better than Lily? Are they all blind? Her prideful eyes
slammed shut, and the tears fell like they were worthless.
Her voice grew hoarse, broken, and hopeless. “I have my pride, Inever wanted to schagainst anyone. just

Simon still thought Elsa had crossed a line.
But she had just undergone major surgery, and her illness meant she didn’t have much tleft. Acher this

He tried to soothe her with a gentle voice. “Lizzy, don’t do this. You-"
“Do you all think I'm disgusting? Evil?”

With that, she ignored the IV in her arm and staggered out of bed, then hurled herself straight toward the wall.
“Elsa!”
“Lizzy!”
Seeing that she was trying to end her life, both Simon and John turned pale with panic.
There was no way they would stand by and let her die. They rushed forward to stop her, and John pulled her
tightly into his arms.
His eyes still held conflict, but... he had been the one who forced himself on her in the beginning. That's what
had led to all of this. He couldn't bear to push her over the edge. In the end, he decided to give her one final
chance.
