Don't listen to him . I'm fine ! " " Mr. Russ , stop stalling ! If you hesitate any longer , that knife goes in ! " Jettson pressed the knife against Larissa's neck , trying to force Russ into action . " Larissa , close your eyes . Don't look . I won't let anyone hurt you. " Just as Russ was about to strike , Larissa spun on her heel and kicked the knife out of Jettson's hand .

Jettson didn't expect her to break free and faltered in surprise . Russ reacted immediately , rushing forward to subdue Jettson . The bodyguards quickly followed , restraining him completely . Larissa looked at Russ , tears filling her eyes . " Russ , you're being ridiculous . It's not worth hurting yourself for me . " As a doctor , don't you know how precious your right hand is ? " Russ exhaled and stroked her hair gently . " Silly girl . No matter how precious , it could never be more than you . Finished " You're my little sister and the little princess of the family .

I can't just stand by and watch you get hurt . " I won't lose you again . " Larissa clutched Russ tightly , overwhelmed with emotion . Her frozen heart softened a little in that moment . She realized that in this world , there were people who truly cared , willing to risk their most precious things to protect her . Her gaze turned icy as she faced Jettson , devoid of the faint warmth she once felt . " You think this can stop me from competing ? " Wrong . Tomorrow , everyone will see who the real winner is .

" You know I never truly meant to hurt you .

" Larissa's fingers brushed the cut on her neck - a constant reminder that he had genuinely tried to kill her . Memories of the past life came rushing back . He had hurt her countless times . She had died once before . Therefore , all remnants of their supposed bond were gone . Coldly , she looked down at him on the floor . " Bond from the past ? " Jettson , how dare you say that ? " In my past life , you hurt me again and again , and now you try to harm me once more . How much of that ' bond ' is left ? " What right do you have to beg me ? " Do you really think I'd soften ?
