After a bit of snooping, she found out which room Bianca was in.
Then, she opened Instagram, switched to her burner ount, and found a trending topic about the fireworks scandal. She typed out a quick post: "I know where the person responsible for the fireworks show is hiding."
Trying toy low? Not on her watch.
In the hospital room, Bianca''s spirits were low. She just couldn''t understand it. It was just a fireworks disy. How could it have caused such a massive public outcry? And how could the chain reaction have been so severe?
She knew about the shareholder pressure at Aurelion Group, even though Seth hadn''t mentioned it. Henry had called, but she''d let it ring until it went to voicemail. He''d followed up with a text asking how she was, but she''d ignored that too.
“Alright, stop feeling sorry for yourself,” her mother, Yvonne, advised. “The most important thing right now is to find out if Seth is going to cancel the engagement. I just called him; he should be here any minute. Pull yourself together.”
Just as Bianca nodded, Seth walked in.
"How are you feeling?" he asked, his concern immediate.
Bianca just shook her head, murmuring that she was fine.
Yvonne sighed dramatically from the sidelines. "She''s running a fever of 104 and says she''s fine. It''s a good thing I found her when I did. She didn''t want me to tell you because she was afraid of worrying you. She said you''re busy enough as it is and didn''t want to be a burden."
"Mom," Bianca said, cutting her off. She knew how overwhelmed Seth already
was.
Seth handed her the flowers. "These are from Healy. He had to go out of town for business, so he couldn''te see you himself.”
Bianca''s expression remained cool. She didn''t even nce at the bouquet. "Well, thank him for me."
It had been over thirty hours since the incident, and Healy hadn''t reached out once. It was clear he didn''t really consider her a friend. The flowers were nothing more than a hollow gesture to keep up appearances. He probably wouldn''t havee to see her even if he hadn''t been out of town.
At least Healy was making a token effort. Others hadn''t bothered at all.
The thought of Dn made Bianca''s gaze turn even colder.
Seth had only been sitting for a few minutes when his phone started buzzing nonstop.
"You should go, Seth. I''ll be fine," Bianca said, ying the part of the understanding partner.
"Alright. You get some rest. I''lle back to see you after I''m done with work He truly was swamped and couldn''t stay. He said a quick goodbye to Yvonne and headed for the door.
Just as he reached it, Bianca called out his name. "Seth."
He stopped and turned back. "Yes?"
Her hand, resting on the nket,
clenched so tightly her nails dug into After
her pains. a long moment
of
internal struggle, she finally asked

the question weighing on hepmind. "Are we still getting engaged?"
Seth''s answer was firm. "Of course. Don''t overthink things. Just focus on getting better."
After he left, Bianca let out a long sigh of relief. Yvonne did the same. "It seems Seth truly cares about you."
For the first time, Bianca felt the true weight of her importance in Seth''s heart. A sense of calm settled over her.
"I was worried for a bit," Yvonne admitted, "but it seems my fears were unfounded. The only problem now is Wade... he might not be so easy to handle."

Bianca to impress Wade by delivering outstanding results on the Aetheria project. Now, afte colossal failure, Wade would undoubtedly look down on Bianca more than ever.
"But don''t worry too much," she added quickly. "As long as you have Seth on your side, nothing else matters. And with Wade''s health, he only has a few years left anyway."
