Daisy Ginger seems so normal.
Normal to the point of being abnormal.
Except for not ntioning Edward Stephens anymore, she looks like nothing happened.
Only those familiar with her can understand how terrifying her current state is.

That day, Ethan Pond and Zoe Hilker visited Daisy Ginger, and the two walked out of the ward.
Zoe Hilker lowered her head, kicked a paper ball left in the corridor by soone, and gritted her teeth, "Enough, let’s tie her up and take her to a psychologist!"
Ethan Pond furrowed his brows, rolled his eyes at Zoe Hilker after hearing her words, "Stop ssing around."
"Seeing her like that makes my heart feel suffocated." Zoe Hilker pursed her lips, her voice hoarse, "I feel terrible, Ethan. She refuses to tell anything, I want to help her."
Ethan Pond leaned against the corner of the wall next to the vent, lit a cigarette, his brows deeply furrowed, feeling clueless for a mont.
Daisy Ginger clearly didn’t need their help. What if they forced her to see a psychologist and it stimulated her even more?
Moreover, he thought about it and felt that their words alone weren’t enough to make Daisy Ginger see any doctor.
With her personality, she’d probably just treat it as idle talk.
"You two," a male voice called from not far away, "what are you doing standing here?"
Ethan Pond and Zoe Hilker turned around to see Edward Stephens stepping out of the elevator.
Zoe Hilker was startled to see him, exclaid in shock, "Edward Stephens, how did you get out?"
The man, though still wearing hospital clothes, looked full of spirit. The clear winter sunlight danced on his handso, fair face, except for his lips, which were still a bit pale from the blood loss, there was no trace of the severe injuries he had recently suffered in the ICU.
He was still as haughty as when they last t. He glanced at her indifferently and snorted, "Why couldn’t I be out?"
During Edward Stephens’ hospitalization, she and Ethan Pond had visited him; back then, he was near death, his complexion a sickly gray, but now he looked incredibly healthy!
"Modern dicine is amazing," Zoe Hilker murmured.
"It’s good you’re here," Edward Stephens walked over and naturally asked, "I want to visit Daisy Ginger, which ward is she in?"
"She just lay down now," Zoe Hilker blinked, "maybe I should go inform her first."
Edward Stephens fiddled with a lighter he’d sohow acquired, lazily replied, "No need. I’ll find her."
"3310," Ethan Pond answered from behind Zoe Hilker.
Edward Stephens nodded at him, glanced at the room number, "Thanks."
Then, he headed towards Daisy Ginger’s ward.
As soon as Edward Stephens left, Zoe Hilker got a bit anxious.
"Why did you tell him?"
If Edward Stephens noticed Daisy Ginger’s abnormality, what would happen?
Ethan Pond watched Edward Stephens’ back, his eyes deep, as he quietly said, "He’ll have to know eventually."
Zoe Hilker pursed her lips, still a bit worried.
Ethan Pond added, "Only Edward Stephens can save Daisy Ginger."
Zoe Hilker glanced at him.
Ethan Pond lowered his eyes, his expression calm on his handso face, "It’s always been that way."
Because Daisy Ginger’s heart has long been filled with Edward Stephens, no one else can fit in.

"Ah—"
Daisy Ginger suddenly opened her eyes.
All she saw was blood red. She struggled to grip the edge of the bed, her thin chest heaving violently, her pale hands bulging with veins.
