It was the smile of an emotionally tired person. “It was too late, Analia. I think you need to go home and rest,” he
I glanced at the door. “Doctor,” James said and shook hands with the doctor. Jessica let go of my arms when she heard about the doctor. She rushed to the doctor and held his arms. “Doctor, what happened? How is he? Is he okay now?” she asked nonstop. James gently pulled her away from the doctor
“You really have the audacity?” Veronica sarcastically said. I slowly let go of Arzhel and wiped my tears as I turned around to face her. “Not now, Veronica,” I said, almost out of energy. She sarcastically laughed. “And when would be the right time to scold you?” she asked, irritated and lookin
My phone rang. I was already in our front door. “Hello, Janna?” I said. I called her a while ago, asking for help to find the hospital where they brought Arzhel, and for her to monitor Adrian’s situation. “I already found Mr. Arzhel’s hospital,” she started. “He’s in the same hospital as Mr. Adr

“Rest for now. I already called Janna. If anything happens that needs your attention, she will call right away,” Adrian said. I was behind him. He was fixing my pillow and bed before I could lie down. He actually looked kind of overreacting right now, as if something bad really happened to me, lik
