The two policewomen hesitated again before nodding, "Alright, we'll stand outside, by the glass window. Miss Kim, if you need anything, call us. We'll be right in."

Jennie nodded her head. The two policewomen opened the door and walked out. Before they left, they deliberately turned to stare at the bed, apparently warning Nancy not to try to do anything.

The ward immediately became quiet, so quiet that one could almost hear the sound of a pin drop.

Jennie quietly looked at the door and before she could turn around, Nancy's weak voice was heard from behind.

"Jennie! You....What are you doing here?!"

Jennie turned around abruptly, looking at the pale face of Nancy. "What? You're really still unhappy with me, right? You still don't want to see me live happily. What are you going to do after this, Nancy?"

Nancy sniggered. She coughed several times as she lifted her bandaged wrist and pointed at her. "If I had a knife in my hand now, even if I had to use all my strength, I would kill you! I would kill you even if I died!"

Jennie didn't say anything. She took an apple and fruit knife from the fruit basket and sat in the chair next to the bed, gently peeling the fruit in her hand.

"Right now, the knife is in my hand. If you have the ability, then take it yourself." As she spoke, she tossed the neatly peeled fruit skin into the trash can next to her.

"You!" Nancy huffed in anger as she clutched the blanket tightly with both hands. She glared at her with hatred, "Jennie, don't be too arrogant too early! I, Nancy, will not die this time! As long as I am willing to perform well in prison, with my relationship with the Kim Family, it will not be a problem to change my sentence to only seven or eight years! Even if Lisa would use any trick to detain me any longer, if I perform well, the sentence still will be reduced! Don't worry. As soon as I get out, you will still get your retribution sooner or later! I will make your life more miserable! Make you live a life worse than death!"

The fruit knife in Jennie's hand stopped for a moment before she lifted her head and looked at the pale face of Nancy with an indifferent expression.

Seeing that Jennie didn't say anything, Nancy immediately laughed out loud. "What's wrong? You got scared?"

Jennie pursed her lip and smiled, but her smile didn't reach her eyes. Instead, she gently cut an apple in her hand and placed it on Nancy's mouth.

Nancy turned her face away in disgust. "Take it away! Are you trying to kill me this way? Are you going to kill me with this knife? Let me tell you, I, Nancy, won't let you go! Even if I die, no one can stop me. Jennie, you can forget any idea you have in your mind!"

"Nancy, since when do you hate me so much?" Jennie took the slice of apple from the knife and calmly ate it.

Nancy's expression changed as she suddenly turned and stared at her.

"I have been wondering about all of this." Jennie sighed softly. "Don't get me wrong, I certainly don't have a trace of sympathy for you, but I also don't feel it's all great. Starting from the age of four, when I entered the Kim Family, I remember that in the first year, you were still stupidly chasing after V and me, following us around. But a year later, you suddenly started avoiding us and gradually, using all sorts of childish but clever tricks to deal with V and me."

"For years, I still haven't found the answer. At that time, you were only three years old, you were a year younger than me. You always called me elder sister. Since you were young, you have been pampered by Jihoon and Lian. You're just a naughty and possessive girl, but deep down, you're not that bad yet. And when I was seventeen, that's when you started getting worse, using any sort of trick to destroy my reputation."

Jennie's eyebrows slowly furrowed as if she didn't want to think about it. However, after many years, she finally got a chance to have a good talk with Nancy.

"Nancy, can you tell me since when you really hated me? And for what reason? We've come this far, there's no need for you to hide it, don't you think?"

Nancy coldly turned her face away. However, there was a faint unnatural expression on her face.

"You are very annoying, to begin with. What other reason do you need? Heh, Jennie, don't consider yourself so important. You're just a freak that people don't like."

Her voice was not loud, but every word was filled with hatred.

"Is it because you don't want to say it or because you don't dare say it?" Jennie smiled as she placed the fruit in her hand to the side, further away from the bed.

"What don't I dare to say?" Nancy looked at her coldly. "Jennie, I told you, don't be arrogant! Don't think too highly of yourself!"

"Do I think too highly of myself, or do you and Lian think too much of me? In the beginning, since I entered the Family, you didn't understand anything, but it was your mother who treated V and me as thorns in her side! Did she teach you to treat me like this, or did you, yourself, hear something and started rejecting me?"

Jennie suddenly looked up. "Or is it because you are afraid of me?"

"Hehe! What a joke! Why should I be afraid of you? Who do you think you are?" Nancy scoffed, but she didn't look at Jennie. Instead, she just stared at the ceiling.

"Since you don't want to say it, then I will." Jennie looked at her indifferently. "Nancy, there are some things that are inevitable. Just like Lian. The great mother that you are always proud of, she is the real culprit who destroys other people's families. She's the dirty woman who used her power and money to seize a marriage from another woman."

Nancy's gaze trembled as she suddenly turned and looked at her. "Shut up!"

"And you, you must have heard them arguing about this when you were over four years old. You always thought that you were the legitimate daughter of Jihoon and the young lady from the Kim Family, and always thought that your mother, including her Family, are all very powerful people, that's why you have never been afraid of everything. When you heard the so-called truth, it gave a great blow to your heart. Since then, you bullied me just to prove that you are higher and smarter than me."

Nancy frowned slightly as she stared at Jennie with a look of disbelief in her eyes.

"You don't have to be curious about how I actually know all this. Kim Family Residence is not a big house. I also heard about Jihoon and Lian's fight that day. There are also some things that I already knew myself. Even though we were all too ignorant at the time, I was already a year older than you and experienced more than you. I naturally know this in my heart."
