Melissa sighed in exasperation, rolling her eyes at Radulf's reaction. "Gregor, let's go outside," she said curtly. Without waiting for a response, she turned on her heel, ready to strode toward the door.
Gregor hesitated briefly, glancing between Melissa and Radulf, before silently moving to follow her.
"I'm not done here," Radulf called after her. "You should rest. Your body is still recovering—pushing yourself will only make things worse." He showed his genuine concern.
Melissa stopped in her tracks, feeling angry. Turning her head just enough to address him without meeting his gaze, she replied coldly, "Save your concern, Radulf. I don't need it—especially when it's fake."
Without waiting for a response, she resumed her stride and disappeared through the doorway, leaving Radulf behind.
Gregor glanced at Radulf for a brief moment. He said nothing, and with a slight nod, he turned and followed Melissa.
