Dr. Stone fell silent for a long while after he watched Ilyan almost on the verge of a breakdown. His thumb pressed beside his right brow as his index finger vigorously rubbed his forehead.
Ilyan's feet tapped on the floor without making a noise as he waited without intending to expose his anxiety bare out there for Dr. Stone to see though deep down, he knew that he had already made it a lot more visible to deny it anymore.
Dr. Stone's lips parted but before he could say anything, he was interrupted by a knock on his cabin followed by one of the receptionists peeking in.
"Dr. Williams wants to see you, Dr. Stone," she informed.
Dr. Stone gave her a quick nod. "Tell him that I am busy with a patient at the moment. I'll meet him once I am free and I want no disturbance now. Unless I call, don't send anyone in."
"Sure, Dr. Stone." She obliged, leaving the cabin within a moment.
