When the captain of the bodyguards heard the news, his expression turned grim and realized all hope was lost.
Among the five areas of assessment, the results showed that Sebastian had failed three of them.
Therefore, they suspected Sebastian, who was locked inside, was thrown into a hysterical fit when he saw the result.
In the meantime, both of them lit a cigarette.
“Miss, who are you looking for? No one is allowed in here. Miss!” Suddenly, a nurse’s frantic voice rang out.
When Mark heard the commotion, he looked at the end of the corridor.
“Madam?”
His eyes suddenly widened.
When the bodyguard captain saw her, his expression drastically changed. After throwing his newly lit cigarette aside, he stormed up to her at once.
“Madam, you… you’re awake? Why are you here? Are you feeling better?”
When he saw that Sasha was still in her patient’s gown with her hair in a mess, he was concerned that she could still collapse anytime.
When did she wake up? Why didn’t we hear anything from the hospital?
The bodyguard captain hurried over to support her.
However, Sasha pursed her dry lips and declined his help.
“Is he… still in there?”
She stared past him, looking as if she was a spirit that had just risen from the grave.
Given how frightening she looked, the bodyguard captain gulped.
“He… he is. Madam, don’t worry, Mr. Sebastian is-”
The captain wanted to reassure her that Sebastian was fine so that she wouldn’t worry.
However, before he could finish, Sasha pushed him aside and staggered sluggishly toward the ward’s entrance.
“Open it!”
“Madam?”
“I’m telling you to open it!” she suddenly shouted in rage.
The bodyguard captain and Mark were both dumbfounded.
After exchanging glances, they opened the door for her.
All she wanted to do was return to his side and bring him back to reality.
However, just as she had painstakingly found some hope, destiny had other plans instead.
Listening to her cries reminded Mark of how she collapsed three days ago. Unable to keep his composure, he opened the ward’s door and stepped out.
The bodyguard captain asked, “Why did you come out? She…”
“It’s fine. Just let her vent. We should be relieved that she can still cry with such vigor,” Mark commented.
It’s true. We should be thankful that she is crying. After all, even men like us may not be able to withstand such a devastating blow.
With that, the two men waited quietly outside without interrupting.
An hour later, the cries finally died down. However, there was no indication that Sasha wanted to leave.
What’s going on?
After exchanging glances, Mark went into the ward again.
“Madam, you…”
“Go to Oceanic Estate and bring me my medical kit along with the equipment in the treatment room listed here. Also, get Olivia to pack two sets of clothes for me.
