NovelApp“All right… Thanks.” The frown eased as Baylor felt a wave of calmness lightening his body.
Sasha let out a smile and continued with the routine check.
Ten minutes later, she finished recording all the data and got ready to leave.
“Mr. White, I’ll excuse myself first. Another doctor will be here for the night shift shortly to take care of
you.”
Baylor closed his eyes to rest quietly.
Sasha had no intention of waiting for a response. She took the data about to leave the room.
“Macy… Doctor… Am I able to eat tomorrow morning?” he asked out of the blue.
She halted and turned to look at the patient, who was staring back with unyielding eyes.
“I would like to eat something. Will milk and egg be okay?”
Sasha did not know how to react to that request.
Consuming solid food wasn’t ideal in his current condition. He would have to rely on a liquid diet via IV
drips for nutrient on a long-term basis.
The doctor couldn’t find the words to break the news to him.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtUltimately, she agreed to his request. His eyes were burning with such expectation and desire that she
didn’t have the heart to object.
“Okay. I’ll bring some for you tomorrow.” Then she left the intensive care unit.
Getting back to the on-call room, Sasha saw Hazel was already there. Without hesitation, she handed
Baylor’s data to her.
“The patient has woken up, and his condition is good. But he wants to have some milk and egg
tomorrow.”
“Huh?”
Hazel widened her eyes. “With his current condition, it’s not advisable?”
Sasha shrugged her shoulders. “It’s normal for patients to have cravings. Can you please inform his
family? We’ll see if he’s able to eat tomorrow.”
With that, she took off her white coat and left work to pick Vivian up from school.
Her daughter seemed exceptionally happy for some reason.
“You look elated. Did the teacher praise you?”
“Yup.”
Vivian did not tell her mother that she went to the same school with her brothers.
Initially, Sasha was worried the girl would be an outcast in her new school. However, all her worries
faded after seeing the joy on her daughter’s face.
After settling Vivian down, she lay in bed and checked her phone habitually. Just then, she noticed the
chat between her and Sebastian. He hadn’t replied to her text since that day.
At that instant, she felt her heart drop.
She knew she should not expect anything from him. After all, he could not even remember who she
was.
Sasha felt utterly discouraged, as though there was a weight on her chest.
Do I have no place at all in his heart? Even if he doesn’t remember me, we’ve spent a long time
together. And I’ve been pleading with him humbly. How could he not reply to me?
Sasha could not suppress her dissatisfaction, and she sent another message to him.
Mr. Hayes, are you there?
Sebastian: Yes?
To her bewilderment, he replied within seconds this time.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmSasha’s eyes widened as she bolted upright on her bed.
My goodness. He finally replied!
She was exhilarated.
Sasha: I’m sorry, Mr. Hayes. It’s nothing important. I heard that you’re in training. How are you doing?
There was no reply from him.
It looks like he doesn’t like the question.
Sasha waited, but he still did not respond.
The utter disappointment hit her like a rock. She regretted asking him that question.
I’m an idiot! How could it be enjoyable for Jonathan? He was forced into training by Devin.
Frustrated, Sasha threw her phone aside.
Just then, Sebastian suddenly texted: Who did you hear it from?
Seeing those words, Sasha could imagine his angry look.
She immediately texted: Mr. Devin told me. Please don’t be mad. I was the one who insisted.
Overwhelmed with nervousness, Sasha failed to comprehend the true meaning of Sebastian’s question
and mentioned Devin mindlessly.
She even explained herself to prevent a conflict between the men.
