Sentimental and Nostalgic

Serena didn’t react immediately. She pointed at her nose. "Cute?! Are you talking about me?!"She acknowledged that she was somewhat attractive, and many people had complimented her on her looks throughout her life, but no one had ever called her cute, let alone him."Yeah! Who else is here besides you?!" Xavier smiled, his lips curling up.Her heart, which had calmed down a little, once again started racing uncontrollably. Serena lowered her head. "Stop joking. I know what I look like. How could I possibly be cute?!""Well, you seem to have some misunderstanding about yourself!" Xavier insisted. "Just now, when you pouted like that, you looked like a little round pufferfish. So adorable!"Serena frowned. "Hey, can you have some conscience? I was angry just now, and instead of comforting me, you’re focusing on whether I’m cute or not?!"Xavier grinned, revealing two rows of perfectly white teeth. "By the way, if I want to s

I Like Him

Feeling uneasy under his gaze, Serena looked down at her fingers. "It's your phone, isn't it? Whether you answer it or not, what's that got to do with me? If you want to pick it up, then do so. If not, don't. Why are you asking me?"Xavier didn't say another word but silently stared at her.A few seconds later, his lips curled up in a playful smirk, and he grabbed the phone, putting it to his ear. "Miss Carter."Before the person on the other end spoke, his sharp eyes briefly flicked over to Serena. He then took the phone away from his ear and switched it to speaker mode.On the other end, a sweet, slightly shy female voice came through. “Xavier, what are you up to?”“Not much, just resting,” Xavier replied casually. “We just had lunch, and Miss Carter’s already calling me. Is something wrong?”Karina pouted playfully, "From the sound of it, you don’t seem too thrilled that I called.""No!" Xavier sai

Arguments

Vernon Hospital.Since the phone call with Karina, Xavier and Serena haven’t spoken to each other.She turned her head to face the window, pretending to look at the view outside.He, on the other hand, pressed his lips together and stared at her, not saying a word, seemingly lost in thought.More than twenty minutes passed. Serena endured and endured, but eventually couldn’t hold it in any longer. She turned around and glanced at the IV bag hanging beside the bed.The liquid in the bag was almost gone. She roughly estimated the remaining time it would take for the infusion to finish, then turned back, ready to continue watching the sparrows on the tree outside the window."Serena!" A hoarse voice came from behind.Serena didn’t turn around immediately. After a few seconds, she replied, "Hmm?!""Hey!" Xavier sighed, his voice low, "I was wrong!""Huh..." Serena finally turned around to lo

Lose Control

Serena suddenly looked up, her expression complex, as if she understood something. “Is it because what she said made me feel more guilty, and that’s why you acted that way toward her?!”“Otherwise, what?! She made you uncomfortable, so why should I show her any courtesy?” The man answered confidently.Serena’s nose began to tingle again. She quickly inhaled, not wanting to lose composure in front of him.She rubbed her nose and casually asked, “How do you feel now? If you’re able to walk, let’s get to the hospital room as soon as possible.”Xavier propped himself up on the bed, moving his wrist a bit. “I’m much better. I feel like I’ve recovered. There’s no need for more treatment. I can discharge myself.”With that, he got off the bed and walked toward the door.Serena quickly followed a few steps, grabbing his arm from behind. “Stop messing around! You have

Unbelievable

Xavier stared at her blankly, his expression a mix of shock and hurt.Serena glanced at him once, then quickly turned her eyes away, not daring to look at him again. "Let's go to the hospital room first. Right now, your health is the most important thing. Everything else can wait."His handsome face fell, and he opened his mouth, wanting to say something, but in the end, he just sighed and obediently followed her out of the examination room.VIP respiratory ward.With the help of the doctor and nurse, Xavier was quickly settled.Stretching out his arms, frowning, he looked down at the blue and white hospital gown he was wearing, his face written with a thousand unwilling thoughts. "Do I really have to wear this ugly thing?"Serena sat on the sofa not far from him, propping her chin up with her hand, admiring him while praising, "Tsk, they say 'a man is judged by his clothes, a horse by its saddle,' but I don't think that's true. This plain hospital gown

Beautiful Nurse

Xavier smirked wickedly, "My attitude only improved because you were upset, not because of that pervy little doctor. If you make me angry, I’ll buy out this broken hospital and make sure that kid loses his job!" "You're getting more ridiculous with every word!" His childish behavior resurfaced, but fortunately, Serena ignored him and plopped back down on the sofa, refusing to speak. Xavier cautiously studied her, trying to figure out how to make amends, when his phone rang Irritated, he grabbed his phone from the bedside table, briefly glanced at the screen, and impatiently asked, "What’s going on? Don’t you know I’m sick and in the hospital, needing rest? Why are you calling me?!" On the other end of the line, a respectful voice came through, "Sir, I’m sorry. I didn’t know you were unwell. Are you at the Blaze’s exclusive clinic? I’ll come to visit you right now." "I’m not at the exclusive clinic! I’m in another hospital, so don’t bother coming!"

Spy

For a moment, Serena was stunned, not quite understanding what he was getting at. Serena pursed her lips and coldly replied, "There's no need for that!""..." The other end of the line fell silent.Not having time to waste with him, she said, "Fine, I'm in a rush to get back to the hospital, no more small talk.""Then... take care of yourself. If you run into any problems, feel free to reach out to me!"She blinked and casually responded, "Got it!" before ending the call on her side.Walking quickly back, she mulled over what had happened. What was up with Clint? Why was he suddenly so concerned about her?When they were still married, he never treated her with this much care. Now that they were divorced, he seemed more eager than ever."Heh... Men are such confusing creatures. When they have something good, they chase after something else. When they lose it, they suddenly want it back." The more she thought about it, the more amused she

I Love You

A flash of panic crossed Xavier's eyes, and he quickly asked, “Serena, what happened?! Did something happen while you were out shopping?!”“No! Nothing happened!” Serena shook her head. “I just think that the exclusive clinic has better conditions, with medical staff who can take good care of you. There, your health will recover faster.”“I don’t care about recovering or not, I just want to stay here, with you!”“Stop being willful!” Serena turned her eyes away. “You’re not a child anymore, don’t joke with your health.”“Who’s joking?!” In his urgency, Xavier grabbed Serena’s arm. “You know my health is strong, this little illness won’t bring me down, it’s the same wherever I get treated.”Serena lowered her face, allowing him to hold her arm. “You…”Before she could finish, she heard an astonished

A Friend

Xavier and Serena simultaneously turned to look. Clint stood in the doorway, dressed in a black suit, staring with a stern expression at their still-clasped hands.Serena instinctively pulled her hand back, but Xavier held it tightly.Turning around, he put on a casual smile, saying nonchalantly, "Oh, what strange wind has brought Mr. Beckett here?!"Clint pressed his lips together, his eyes fixed on Serena’s face. He didn’t respond to Xavier’s words, but instead stepped closer, asking as he approached, "Do you feel unwell anywhere?!"His questioning tone made Serena uncomfortable.She shot him a cold look, "What does whether I feel good or not have to do with you?! We’re divorced. Legally, you and I are just two strangers with no ties. What’s with that murderous look? Who are you trying to impress?!"Clint stopped in his tracks, his gaze sharp as he looked at her. "Serena, I... I’m just worried about you. I mean no h

Dirty and Despicable

Poppy stared at him intently, silently tightening the strap of her handbag. "A friend?! I bet this is no ordinary friend! If you won’t take me, I’ll go on my own! Anyway, there are only a few rooms on this floor; I’ll search room by room and I don’t believe I won’t find your special friend!"After muttering to herself, she turned around and walked down the hallway with a gloomy expression.Inside the VIP ward.After Clint left, Serena quickly pulled her hand back. "He’s gone, why are you still holding on?!"The man lowered his head to look at her, his expression not looking too good. "Clint seems to care a lot about you. He thought you were sick and was willing to leave behind his work at Beckett Corp just to rush here.""Care?!" Serena sneered. "I don’t know if he’s actually concerned about me. I’ve never received his concern before, so I’m not familiar with how he cares for people! And i
