"Mr. Harmon, Ms. Alisa here reported that you've been holding her cousin against her will." "She's lying! Eva is my wife!" Leonard's gaze burned with fury as he looked at us.
I felt a lamp in my throat, unable to get any words out.

"she's not your wife. You're divorced, and Eva never once mentioned wanting to get back together with you.

The two officers exchanged a look, both sensing the complexity of the situation.
I wanted to say more, but it felt like I had used up all my energy. I knew I couldn't pass out now-it I did, I'd be completely at Leonard's mercy, I bit down on my tongue to stay conscious. Leonard's bodyguards had already entered the ward.
His voice was soft, but his eyes were filled with hatred. "Eva, what nonsense are you saying? Officers, Eva and I are about to remarry. You must have seen the news. She's still my wife," "She's not." Jack's voice broke through, and I exhaled in relict.

But I had spoken clearly, and Jack was here. Leonard couldn't keep me.
This time, I slept deeply, and when I woke up, I was back in a familiar hospital ward I felt a weight on my hand and a soft, fuzzy sensation. Alisa had fallen asleep on my arm, and her hair scattered across. I gently moved my fingers, and she instantly woke up "Eva! You're finally awake!" she huggedtightly, crying her heart out. It took a while for her sobs to subside.
"Leonard is a monster. He even drugged you just to keep you with him!" She rambled on, and I learned that Leonard had, indeed, been drugging
