Marco was suddenly alert. His gut told him that something was wrong.
Why was Keely insisting that he eat this meal?
He was about to raise his suspicion of her when there was a knock at the door.
Mr. Bryant, Ive spoken with the doctor. You are free to leave after I deal with the discharge formalities. Carls voice came from outside the door.
Very well, Marco responded and pushed Keelys Lunchbox away. You can go back to your ward since Im Leaving.
She was almost there, so close to achieving her goal. How could Keely give up now? There was no way she could.
If Marco left now, she would lose her Last chance.
She had to keep him here today!

Keely leaned forward in her wheelchair and embraced Marco with all her strength. She wrapped her arms tightly around his waist and buried her face in his shirt, pleading desperately.
Please dont go, Marco! I just came, and youre Leaving already. Why?
Are you annoyed that Im here? If you are, then I1l leave. Youre still recovering. Dont be in a rush to leave the hospital, for your own sake!
Marco forcibly broke away from Keelys hold and glared down at her tear-stained face. He questioned flatly, Then, let me ask you something. How did you know I was injured?
Keelys pitiful expression froze in an instant and she looked away.
She had bribed Eliza to spread the rumor about the signal tower to sabotage Loraines project. She had even discreetly hired someone to create a disturbance at the construction site.

Unfortunately, her plan failed. Instead, Marco was injured during the riot, but Loraine emerged safe and sound due to his heroicness.
As soon as she heard what happened, Keely rushed to Marcos ward to offer her consideration. However, she made one vital mistake. She forgot that he did not tell anyone about his injury.
Marco had been speculating over the matter. Now that he noticed Keelys evasive look, his face darkened in realization.
Keely, Ive warned you about it before. You have been testing my patience and prying into my matters over and over again. I assure you,
I will show you no mercy if you dare try to interfere in the project again!
Shaken by his threat, Keely quickly tried to cover for herself. Dont get me wrong, Marco. Im just worried about you.
Save it. Ive heard enough of your excuses. Go back to where you belong. Marco had run out of patience. He called the nurse and ordered, Keep an eye on her. Dont let her wander around.
The nurse nodded, took to the handles of Keelys wheelchair, and steered her out of the ward.
Afraid of inciting more of his anger, Keely didnt dare protest. She knew whatever she tried to say at that moment would be of no help anyway, so she remained silent and let the nurse guide her out of the ward.
