"Chester Yale, I can't pretend nothing happened, just like you can't stand by and watch me deal with Sheldon Yale, between us..."
Evelyn Sherman bit her teeth, unable to say 'break up', pushed him away, hailed a car, and left the hospital.
Watching him stand by the roadside, his body rigid, she covered her mouth with both hands, weeping silently.

Evelyn Sherman locked herself in her room for three days without stepping out.
Every day, she just sat on the balcony in a daze, like a soulless porcelain doll.
Only when Grace Yakov came to tell her about the progress of the investigation did her eyes become clear.
But as soon as Grace left, she would start to space out again.
Once there was concrete evidence proving the car accident was orchestrated by Sheldon, she and Chester Yale could never go back...
Sometimes, she even hoped the information Grace found was fake.
