7.30 Resentment's Grip

Cillian and Lucas started their day with a sense of contentment, heading to work after sharing a tender kiss over breakfast.

Cillian, with a heartfelt embrace, entered his studio, fully engrossed in his work. About an hour later, Bliss, the little ball of lies, made an appearance.

"Master?" Bliss's voice carried a hint of concern.

Cillian, without taking his eyes off the screen, responded, "En?"

Bliss gazed at his focused master and spoke softly, "The celestials have requested me to provide them with a report."

Cillian met Bliss's gaze and provided detailed instructions, "Inform them that I experienced a distressing moment upon seeing Lucas with Adlai and fell into a coma, which served your plan perfectly. Emphasize that after my mother received the doctor's verdict – that nothing could be done – she warned Lucas to stay away from me, convinced that he was the cause of my troubles, being the only new addition in my life."
