Suzanne’s steps were light as she headed to his hospital room, holding a novel she really liked.


    “What should I say when I see himter?” she wondered. “Should I talk about the book or his


    condition? What excuse can I use to stay and keep himpany?”


    While contemting, she approached the room.


    The door was ajar. She was still walking at a rtively quick pace before she abruptly halted as she


    turned to enter the room.


    She was greeted by the sight of a man and woman embracing each other.


    She only had a quick nce, but it sent her into a nervous spiral. She stepped back and hid behind the


    wall.


    She clutched the book and pressed it tightly against her chest. Her nose stung, and she couldn’t stop


    he es from welling up with tears.


    Suzanne lifted her head to prevent any tears from escaping, but the aching feeling in her heart made


    her feel like crying.


    That wasn’t an illusion. She clearly saw Sally embracing Nathan.


    It had only been one morning. How did she find out that he was njured? She was already here to see


    him this soon?


    Sally’s voice rang out.


    “I flew over as soon as you called me and asked me toe yesterday, Nate. I didn’t expect you to be


    injured. I’m really worried.” “I’m fine,” Nathan replied.


    “I’m so sad and upset, Nate,” she cried. “Do the injuries hurt?”


    At the door, Suzanne shut her eyes slowly. She couldn’t stop the tears from flowing down her face.


    They dampened her cheeks and dripped down to her chin.


    A chilling cold emitted from her body, and her heart felt like it was being sliced open. The pain was


    unbearable.


    In this marriage, she had gotten nothing but endless suffering.


    Her hands slumped listlessly to the side, and the book hit the ground


    with an audible smack.


    She took a deep breath, and her chest felt too congested to breathe.


    She felt like a hollow shell. Tears blurred her vision as she walked away while suppressing the urge to


    cry.


    After entering the elevator, she ced her palms on her face and wiped her face dry. However, no


    matter how hard she tried to brush. away the tears on her cheeks, she couldn’t stop the endless flow of


    droplets from streaming down her face


    In the hospital room, Nathan pushed Sally’s hand away. He was just about to say something when he


    heard a vague noise at the door.


    go look,” Sally offered.


    walked outside and saw Suzanne’s dejected, lonely figure at the nd of the hallway. Her gaze fixated on


    the book by the door, and her lips curved up.


    She returned and said with a shallow smile, “It was a nurse.


    The man gave her a brief acknowledgment in response.


    Sally blinked, staring at him seductively.


    “Did you call me over in such a hurry because of your injury, Nate?”


    she asked. “Do you need me to take care of you and keep youpany?”


    He avoided her gaze and said in mild disdain, “Don’t justunch yourself at me from now on. I have a


    wife. It could lead to misunderstandings.”

    Sally pouted at him. “You’ll always be the man I love the most. I don’t care if you have a wife or a


    family. My mind will never change.”


    In order to keep her emotions stable he said gently, “You must be tired from the flight. Why don’t you


    head back to the dormitories and get some rest?”

    He was still waiting for Suzanne.


    “Alright, then I’ll head back for now. I’ll bring you lunch during


    lunchtimeter,” she replied.


    Nathan nodded with an unreadable look in his eyes.


    Sally left the room with her luggage in tow. She shut the door and picked up the book, bringing it along


    with her.


    He sat at the edge of the bed and che d the time on his phone.
