Zara decided to do some shopping for her family before her friend arrived. She then visited a few well-known stores and brought items that her family members preferred. Even though she had never met Olivia before, she remembered to buy something for her as well.
Zara handed over the bags to the bodyguard and instructed him to return to the car once the shopping was done. Zara then went to a restaurant, sat in a corner seat, and waited for a while, but still her friend didn't arrive.
At this point, she received a phone call. Seeing the called ID, she sighed and answered it. "Sorry, Luna. I had a situation and I can't meet you." From the other side came an anxious and hurried voice.
"Don't worry. I have some news for you. I'll call you tomorrow and tell you. And we'll meet soon...." The moment the other person finished speaking, the call was hung up.
Zara had no expression on her face as if she had anticipated this. She contacted her bodyguard to have the car brought to the mall entrance after getting up and leaving the restaurant.
She felt someone's presence behind her as she made her way to the mall's exit. She turned around and noticed an elderly man approaching her, yet there seemed to be something off about him.
As she was thinking, she noticed the old guy tumble towards her. She rushed forward to get him and gently placed him on the floor. Looking at the elderly man, she felt that he looked familiar.
However, she didn't give it much thought because she now just wanted to check on what was wrong with him. She only wanted to check on the old man and help him, as she had learned from Grandpa Charles that "It's our duty as a doctor to save someone when they want us."
It's because she also learned from Grandpa Charles his medicine skills so she decided to check on him.
Soon, people started surrounding them and murmuring to themself looking at the old man.
She quickly checked the old man's health, got a pill out of her bag, and made him take it. Someone suddenly screamed, "Hey, girl. How can you give an unconscious old guy medication without a doctor's consent?"
Another voice could be heard speaking, "Yes, that's correct. What if something happens to him? Will you take responsibility?" Zara was calmly checking on the old man, oblivious to everyone else's finger pointing at her.
At that moment, a few bodyguards moved to make room for the man who was making his way through the crowd and approaching Zara. The man looked handsome with his striking figure but emitted an air of aloofness. The people got scared by his aura and gave way to him without even realizing it.
The one beside him looked at the old man with the girl doing something. He moved towards Zara and said with a cold tone, "Excuse me, Miss. How can you aid someone without a doctor's consent?"
The people who were looking at the scene, shook their heads looking at the girl. Because the man who was standing there seemed like someone who couldn't be offended.
And it seems like the old man lying unconscious is his grandfather. So the girl should be dead meat if anything happens to the old man. Some people felt sorry for the old man whereas some felt sorry for the little girl.
Zara looked up at the sound of the voice. As she looked up, she pushed her hair to the back and lifted her long eyelashes to look at the one who talked without showing any emotions.
Before she opened her mouth, she sensed someone pressing her hand. As she looked down, she saw some moments in the old man. As she checked him, he slightly opened his eyes and looked around.
But before everyone could breathe a sigh of relief, he soon passed out again. Seeing this, Zara called out for the man who just talked and said, "Excuse me, Mister. You should be his family, right?"
Zara stood up as the emergency service people placed the old man on the stretcher and took him toward the vehicle placed at the entrance of the mall.
The man looked at the still-calm Zara and was so infuriated. But before he could speak, a voice rang out from behind him. "I am." Zara followed the sound and looked at the man but just glanced at him before saying, "He's fine. But he's still weak. There won't be a problem and you take him to the hospital and do a check-up."
"Do you know medicine?" The man asked without changing his expression but still emitted a cold gaze. Without lifting her head, Zara just nodded at him and took her phone out of her bag.
Without saying anything else, he looked at the man who was standing beside him and went towards the exit of the mall. The man understood what he meant, so he went forward and said coldly, "Miss, you would have to come with us to the hospital."
Zara understood what he meant, so she nodded at him and followed him behind. When they exited the mall, Zara looked at her bodyguard who walked towards her after seeing her.
She glanced at him and he stood rooted to where he was. As she reached the man's car. The man soon opened the car door for her, and she knew she had to go in this car.
As soon as she got in the car, she saw the man from earlier already sitting inside the car with his body emitting a cold aura. Zara didn't talk to him and swiftly took out her phone and messaged her bodyguard to follow the car.
The bodyguard quickly started following the car even before he got the message. But he still kept his distance from the car. The people in the front car realized that someone was following them but didn't say anything, because they understood that it must be for the girl.
The car was entirely silent and no one looked at each other, except the man who sat in the front passenger seat simultaneously looked at the girl from the rearview mirror.
