?Chapter 359:


    So Debby wasn’t exaggerating. Doris really was attempting suicide.


    But Rachel had a feeling this was just a ploy to gain Brian’s sympathy. Doris was walking a dangerous tightrope, one even someone as bold as Tracy might hesitate to cross.


    “Ms. Marsh, the hospital and the patient’s family are taking care of this. The police have already been called. Let’s go back,” the nurse said gently, watching Rachel closely.


    She was clearly worried about how Rachel was holding up.


    “Rx. She won’t jump. Let’s watch a little longer,” Rachel said calmly.


    She knew Doris had put in so much effort to create this scene, all just to get Brian’s attention.


    With him absent, there was no way she’d actually go through with it.


    Someone as calcting as Doris would never truly risk her own life.


    The scene above escted, and Doris’s wails grew even more pitiful.


    “Debby, I’m sorry. I can’t go on. I’m too ashamed to show my face. I’m hideous now. No one will ever love me again!”


    She broke down into uncontroble sobs.


    Just then, hurried footsteps approached, and Debby seized the moment.


    “Doris, calm down! Don’t do anything drastic. Brian’s here! He’se to see you—he’ll help you.”


    Hearing that, Doris seemed to rx a little, a hint of hope flickering in her eyes.


    “Are you serious?”


    “Just listen—he’s right outside!”


    A few secondster, the door burst open.


    Doris turned eagerly, expecting Brian—but it wasn’t him.


    Instead, Aron stood there, breathless and tense.


    The moment she saw him, she felt a little disappointment.


    M?г? ??????? ?? ??l????l?.???


    Meanwhile, Debby, desperate for help, clung to his arm with a shaky grip. “Thank goodness you’re here. Talk to her. She’s about to do something reckless!”


    Aron’s hands were mmy with sweat, and his whole body felt tense. Doris was the only daughter of histe friend. If anything happened to her, he’d never forgive himself.


    “Doris, please! Come down. Don’t do anything drastic. We have plenty of resources, and we’ll fix your face, no matter what it takes.” He kept his voice steady, desperately trying to reason with her.


    But this wasn’t the reassurance Doris wanted.


    “I’m sorry. I know you’ve always looked after me like a daughter, but… I can’t burden you any longer.”


    With those words, she let go of one hand, ready to jump.


    Aron and Debby stood frozen, their breaths caught in their throats as fear gripped them. The air felt heavy, charged with desperation, but Aron managed to summon a thread of rationality. “Stop! Doris, think about Blian. You two have always shared something special. If you go through with this, he’ll never forgive himself. Do you really want to leave him with that burden?”
