Hypatos My life has always belonged to House Ares. Every battle, every scar, even the arm I lost, was given in its name.

Bridget's lips curled slightly into a satisfied smirk. “We’ll see. Start the car and drive me to the city.” “Yes, ma’am,” Hans said as he opened the passenger door for her. As the car pulled out of the mansion’s long driveway, Bridget couldn’t help but notice Hans's composure. His movements were precise, his demeanor calm. “You drive well,” she remarked. “Thank you, ma’am,” Hans replied without breaking his focus on the road. Bridget tilted her head, studying him. “Why become a driver?” she asked suddenly. Hans hesitated for a moment. “Personal reasons, ma’am.” “Hmm. You’re full of secrets, aren’t you?” Bridget teased, though her tone carried genuine curiosity. Somehow, she wanted to know the deepest of the deepest of his driver. That's how it works for her. Maybe. Before Hans could reply, she noticed a black SUV trailing close behind them. Her instincts, sharp as ever, kicked in. “Hans, speed up,” she commanded. “We’re being followed.” “Yes, ma’am,” Hans said, immediately accelerating, maintaining his composed demeanor, and his expertise in driving. The black SUV matched their pace, confirming Bridget's suspicion. “Lose them,” she ordered, gripping her seatbelt. Hans’s hands moved deftly across the wheel, taking sharp turns and expertly navigating the highway. Bridget watched in amazement, realizing he was no ordinary driver. “Who are you, really?” she asked, her voice low and filled with intrigue. “Just your driver, ma’am,” Hans replied with a faint smile.

Tentei agradá-lo de todas as formas, mas ele apenas zombava friamente: — Se você realmente quer me agradar, então morra. Aquilo doeu profundamente. Mas, quando um caminhão avançou na minha direção, foi ele quem se jogou na frente... e morreu sobre uma poça de sangue para me salvar. Antes de fechar os olhos, ele me lançou um olhar profundo e murmurou: — Teria sido melhor... se eu nunca tivesse te conhecido. No funeral, minha sogra estava inconsolável: — Eu devia ter deixado o Luís ficar com a Gabriela Nunes. Nunca deveria ter forçado esse casamento!

Até eu me arrependia. Fui expulsa do funeral, completamente atordoada. Três anos depois, uma máquina do tempo surgiu do nada — e eu voltei ao passado.

In my last life, I gave up competing in a general practitioner skills competition to take on this very surgery. But because the other lead surgeon violated protocol during the operation, it ended in a serious medical accident. My sister, the head of the department, pinned all the blame on me.
