Can you marry me as soon as possible?”
Mitchel’s eyes darkened. He raised his hand to stroke her hair and said, “Fine His affirmative response seemed to give her some sort of assurance.
She leaned into his arms. Her head pressed against his chest.
Mitchel frowned and attempted to push her away.
Sensing his intention, Lauren leaned even closer as if she wanted to be under his skin. She moved her body seductively while tracing his belt with her fingers.
She glanced up at him amorously and said, “You know, my illness doesn’t stop me from…”
Before she could finish speaking, Mitchel grabbed her wandering hand.
He stepped away from her and said coldly, “Sleep tight. I’ll take my leave now.”
“I thought you were going to stay with me this night. How can you leave me all alone?” Lauren said with a pout after withdrawing her hand awkwardly.

Mitchel ran his fingers through his hair. Exasperated, he promised, “Please don’t do that. Trust me, I’ll get everything sorted out very soon.”

The nurse’s mouth was opened wide in astonishment. The last time she checked, this VIP patient was always so frail that she could barely lift a finger. How come she became so violent all of a sudden?
The nurse stood there lost in thought.
Suddenly, a whoosh was heard.
A glass flew toward the nurse’s face.
