Alex was stunned to hear it. He did all this only for her, and now she just asked him to leave. For a few seconds, he didn't react at all, other than leveling a glare at her. "All these days I protected you, stayed by your side, and did everything you asked me to do without a second thought, just to make you happy. Humph…”  He snorted and added, “Now, you say that you don't need me. It hurts, Jasmine. I always cared for you, but you... now I know you never cared for me."  Alex was heartbroken. The pain was clearly visible from his expression. He sniffed and continued, "If you ever think that I am your true friend, and I am here to protect you, call me. I will come to you immediately."  He turned and left as soon as he finished speaking. A drop of tear

Carl Black had recovered much but not fully. He needed to stay a few more days in the hospital. However, he was feeling bored, staying inside the four white walls all day. He asked the doctor if he could go out for a while. The doctor allowed him to walk for some time in the garden of the hospital. He was happy and went out of the ward. The mild breeze hit on his face the moment he came out to the garden. He inhaled deeply and could smell the faint fragrance of different flowers. The garden was huge with many flowering plants and trees. There were cemented benches on the sides. Many patients in their blue hospital gowns were present there. Some of them were chatting with family members sitting on the benches, some were walking slowly with the help of a nurse, and some were in a wheelchair. He looked around and saw a huge cherry blossom tree in one corner of t

“What?” Dr. Quinn’s eyebrows creased deeply. It was nearly two months since Lisa woke up from the coma but during this time span, she never passed out. Then why did she fainted all of a sudden? Without a word, he headed to the ward in haste. Once he came to the ward he asked Lily to put on the EEG and attached the electrodes on Lisa’s head. Lily quickly followed the instruction and Dr. Quinn started observing her brain activity. Her neurons were constantly firing.  There was a half-smile on Dr. Quinn’s face but slowly it was replaced by a scowl. He asked sternly, “What happened before she passed out?” His tone was harsh and commanding.  Lily knew this time she shouldn’t hide anything, so she explained everythin

Lisa was completely lost at his charming appearance. She wanted to trust him because he was the only one who was claiming to be her friend.  She nodded and agreed with him, "OK, I will go with you." Dr. Valentine grinned widely, "That's my good girl. Shall we leave now?" Lisa nodded, and he pulled her up, holding her hand. Then they went out of the ward.  On the way out, he called the driver to bring the car. By the time they came out of the hospital, his car also pulled over in front of the entrance. The driver opened the door for them, and Dr. Valentine ushered her into the car.  He then sat down beside her and said, "You will enjoy it at my home, but right now I can't accompany you for a long time becau

When Dr. Valentine reached the villa, he strode to Lisa’s room and knocked on the door.  Lisa opened the door and smiled at him, “You are back.” He also smiled back, “I have something to show you.” He walked into the room and sat down on the chaise lounge, “Come here and sit. Let me show you something.” Lisa sat down beside him, “What is it?” He took his phone out of his pocket and showed the photo. “An art exhibition is going on in this academy. I will take you there tomorrow.” “Really?” Lisa was excited. “I am so happy.” Her eyes crinkled as a wide grin appeared on her face “Alright.” He leaned towards her a little and asked in a teasing way, “What will you give to me
