Ethan's eyes flashed with a hint of cunning as he hung up the phone.
Alex Carter…
Lily Anderson, I'll make sure you forget that name completely!
Lily's mental state had been deteriorating over the past few days—she had become incredibly lazy.
Whenever she fell asleep, it was as if she sank into a deep slumber, impossible to wake from without loud noises. In the past, no matter how tired she was, she had never been like this.
When she was awake, her life was a cycle of staring into space—she did nothing but stare blankly.
A whole day would pass, and she'd barely turn a few pages of a novel. She couldn't focus on anything.
She rarely felt like eating, and she was utterly devoid of appetite. Dr. Joel gave her nutrient infusions at Ethan's command to keep her body functioning.
Despite not eating for several days, her stomach wasn't hurting.
It was baffling.
