This woman always managed to touch the most fragile part of his heart. He had never experienced this kind of emotion before and didn't know how to control it.
"Wait for me here for a moment. I have to take care of something important, and I'll be back soon." After leaving the room, Alex walked straight toward the stairs. Claire nodded as she watched his back.
"Okay, I'll wait here for you."
Alex paused briefly when he heard Claire's response, then disappeared around the corner. Claire sat down on the hospital bed. It wasn't far from the ward she had stayed in before, and she hadn't been sitting long when she heard footsteps outside the door.
Soon, the door to the ward opened. Claire heard the sound and looked up to see who it was. When she saw the person's face clearly, she looked surprised.
"It's you?"
Lucy walked in, raising her chin and looking at Claire with a dangerous glint in her eyes.
