I stepped back, intending to hide, but he spotted me. “Hi, Davin!” I said with a smile. “I didn’t expect to find you here. I got lost on my way to the doctor’s room.” Lexplained.

He gave me a blank stare. I hope he believed me.

“Achilles told me about your appointment, you’re already done,” he said, debunking my story.

I sighed. “You’re right, I was following you out of curiosity. What happened to your face? Did you get into a light, or I mean, did someone attack you!”

bruise on his right cheek, and his lip looked like it had been punched. But even so, he still looked handsome,

Why am I complimenting him?

He stared at me for what felt like an eternity, making the uncomfortable. Did I have something on my face!

“Tavin, I’m dying to know the truth; you’re killing me here,” I joked. He suddenly averted his gaze and walked away. Just like that?

I watched him enter a room, probably for his doctor’s appointment. I took a seat and hoped Achilles would call me.

I wondered if something serious had happened to Davin, considering he had an appointment.

I messaged Zera that I wouldn’t be able to visit my mother until later because I had something important to do. When her reply, ‘Okay came in, I closed my phone and glanced around. Would Davin take much longer inside? 1 couldn’t help but worry about him. Ten minutes passed. Then, suddenly my phone rang. Was it Achilles?

“Hello!”

“Miss, where are you? You’re not in the doctor’s room anymore, he asked, sounding somewhat concerned,

“I’m inside the hospital, waiting for Davin. Don’t wait for me, I told him.

“Okay. Miss,” he said and ended the call.

I saved his number and sent him a message, but there was no reply.

Just then, the door opened, and Davin walked out. He looked momentarily surprised to see me. I quickly stood up and asked, “How are you? Are you okay?”

He took a step towards me but simply walked

“Are you mad at me for what I did?” I said to him, following his pace. “I didn’t mean to do that, Besides, I was also upset with you about me and Stoven. That doesn’t mean we’re quits. I’m just wondering and worried about you.”

He hissed. He was still angry.

“Davin-”

He stopped and held my arm, making me pause. “Car

I didn’t expect him to say that, and his words hurt as if I were an annoyance to him. I was just worried, after all.

“Sorry, I won’t,” I said, removing his hand from my

I just watched him, but I didn’t expect him to return.

Was he going to scold me?

“Let’s go,” he said

Let’s go! What did he mean?

He looked at me as if wondering I was still standing there

“Achilles texted me saying he’s already ahead. Come with me,” he said.

I’ll swallow my pride for now since I don’t have money for fare. I realized I left my wallet in Achilles‘ car. This content © 2024 NôvelDrama.Org.

“Okay,” I said softly and started walking.

He was behind me until we walked out of the hospital together.

“I realized I left my wallet inside your secretary’s car, I informed him as he opened the front door, so I stepped in.

“I’ll let her know,” he said and closed the door. He rounded the car, opened the driver’s door, and sat down. He took his wallet from his pants pocket, pulled out $1000, and handed it to me.

I glanced at the money in his hand. “What’s this for?” I couldn’t help but ask.

“Take it. How will you get home later? My secretary is busy right now, so he won’t be able to give you when you get home,” he explained

“But that’s too much.” I said to him. “I only need $100, I added and took the $100 bill.

But he took my hand and placed the money in it. “For your food and anything else, he explained. “Just take it. “I’ll return the excess to you.

He started the engine, and we left the area. I tucked the money into my jeans pocket

I couldn’t help but look at his bruise and the cut on his lip.

“Stop staring at t

I averted my gaze and turned it to the window. I restrained myself from asking any more quest

I will no longer be concerned about you, and I won’t call you by yo

your name anymore.

So, during the journey, we remained silent, and I didn’t even glance at him, until we reached the hospital.

“Thank you” I said to him, and I got off first. As I entered the hospital’s entrance, I glanced back and saw the car was no longer there.

Then I continued inside and took the elevator to the floor where Mom was

When I entered the room, I found Mom staring out of the window lost in thought.

“Mom, I’m here. Where’s Zera“” I asked, but she didn’t respond or even look at me,

“Mom, I called to her and touched her arm. She was startled and looked at me. “Lili, you are here,” she said without a smile on her l lips.

“It took me a while, Mom, Where’s Zera?” I asked

“She left to check how much the bill would be, Mama replied and took an apple from the basket. She started eating it,

The door opened, and Zera entered, holding a piece of paper, her face creased with a frown as she looked at me.
