Aria examined Ian for a few seconds and when she was sure that her words had reached him and he was considering them seriously, she walked out of the ward, only to bump into Noah. Her eyes widened in surprise and she looked at him questioningly.
"What are you doing here? How long have you been waiting here?" Aria folded her hands and stared at him as if he had committed a crime. "By the way, who allowed you to leave your ward?"
Noah did not know whether to laugh or cry when he saw her glaring at him. He was not that fragile. Alright? He could handle a short walk. Moreover, his fever was gone and other than some lingering weakness, he did not feel anything else. But who could explain it to Aria, who was still waiting for his response?
"I'm fine, Aria. You do not have to worry." He tried even though he had an inkling that she would not believe him and it happened just that.
