Chapter 532 Nightmare

“No… no!”

Kyla’s eyes flew open.

The harsh white glow of the hospital ceiling stabbed into her vision.

The glare was so sharp that tears welled up and slid down her face.

“You’re awake? Ms. Kyla, are you feeling pain anywhere? Hold on, I’ll get the doctor right away!” The caregiver, who had been keeping watch beside her, nearly jumped with relief. She quickly pressed the call button on the wall, her voice trembling with excitement.

“I… what happened to me… my face…”

Kyla’s mind still lingered in the haze of her nightmare. Her hand, trembling uncontrollably, rose toward her cheek.

All she felt was the stiff press of bandages.

Her breath caught in her throat.

In a single flash, everything returned. The terror at Sunlight Plaza. The collapse. The chaos.

“My face

my face… no! My face! What happened to my face?”

She lurched upward from the bed, clawing at herself in a frenzy. Her fingers scraped over every inch of skin as though she could peel away the reality that bound her.

The frantic tearing pressed hard into her wounds. Sharp pain stabbed across her cheeks.

It struck her like a plunge into ice water, dragging her heart into a frozen abyss.

This was not a dream.

This was real.

The caregiver hurried forward, trying to catch her wrists. “Ms. Kyla, stop! Please stop! You’re hurt badly, and the doctors have already treated your wounds. If you keep ripping at yourself, you’ll destroy the work they’ve done!”

“Don’t touch me! Stay away from me! Bring me a mirror! I need a mirror! I have to see what happened to me!”

Her screams shook the room. The commotion brought doctors and nurses running. They pinned her to the bed as she thrashed against their grip, until a syringe pressed into her arm.

The sedative seeped through her veins, draining her strength.

Her body sank back into the bed, her chest heaving. Her voice broke into a weak whisper. “Doctor … please… let me see. Show me my face. What happened to it?”

“Ms. Kyla, you need to be ready. Medicine today can do incredible things. As long as you keep up your treatment, there’s still hope for recovery.’

The doctor knew the truth could not be hidden. He nodded for the nurse to bring a mirror, his eyes fixed on Kyla while the drug dulled her panic.

The glass finally caught her reflection.

Her breath hitched. Her eyes blurred with tears.

Her chest tightened as if a giant hand had seized it. She nearly fainted where she lay.

The sedative kept her from losing her mind completely.

“My face… why does my face look like this… I was supposed to break into the industry. I was going to be a star. And now… now what do I do…

She buried her head in her hands. Her sobs broke through the fabric of the bandages, raw and choked.

“They know what happened to me. They know I’m in the hospital.”

And when that day came, she would have nothing left.

Something cruel flashed across her eyes.

She did not notice it, but her heart was shifting in ways she could not undo.

The path she chose in that moment would one day drag not only her but the entire Jenson family into ruin.

The doctor, convinced she had calmed, left after giving her a long list of reminders.

The caregiver remained behind.

She had worked in hospitals long enough to know that a woman facing the loss of her beauty would not surrender casily. Still, patience was part of the job, and the pay was worth every extra ounce of kindness.

“Ms. Kyla, would you like something to drink? Are you in pain anywhere?”

Kyla thought hard before answering. “I don’t feel much pain now. But tell me… I know my mom is in surgery. What about the others caught in the collapse? How are they?”

“I’ve heard that many were hurt, but most suffered only minor wounds. The two who were hurt the worst are you and Mrs. Jenson. Only one person died.

“It was awful, the entire west wing of the fourth floor came crashing down and pulled you into

it.”

“One person died? Who was it? What about Daph… Mrs. Bell? What happened to her?”
