#76 “Winning Someone’s Heart isn’t Always Easy.”

Alexander closely followed the ambulance, determined to ensure Maestro Paus received the best medical attention available. He knew the gravity of the situation, and his concern for their dear friend was evident.

Meanwhile, Sophia remained outside the villa, her heart gripped by worry and fear. She stared at the road where the ambulance had disappeared, unable to comprehend the sudden turn of events.

Maestro Paus had been sitting right beside her, and in an instant, he had fallen to the ground, his frailty exposed. Her chest tightened with anxiety, but she forced herself to take deep breaths, attempting to push aside the haunting thoughts of the worst possible outcomes.

The significance of Maestro Paus in Sophia’s life couldn’t be overstated. He had been her mentor, her guiding light, and a cherished friend throughout the years. Their relationship held a depth of meaning that extended far beyond the realms of mere friendship.

As Sophia watched, a car pulled into the driveway, and her anxious eyes recognized it immediately – it was Oliver’s vehicle. Sophia rushed down the steps to meet him, her concern etched across her face. The look on Oliver’s face mirrored her own worry.

“Sophia, is everything alright?” Oliver’s voice was tinged with concern as he spoke through the car window.

Sophia barely took a moment to respond, her words tumbling out breathlessly. “Maestro Paus… he lost consciousness, fainted, and now they are taking him to the hospital. We must go immediately.”

Oliver’s expression grew pale, mirroring Sophia’s unease. He didn’t hesitate and gestured for her to get into the car. Sophia wasted no time in doing SO.

As Oliver sped towards the center of town, he questioned her urgently, “Do you know which hospital they’ve taken him to? There are at least three nearby.

Sophia, still reeling from the shock of the situation, cursed under her breath. “I don’t know… Alexander left right after the ambulance. I’ll call him.”

Her trembling hands retrieved her phone from her bag, and she dialed Alexander’s number. When he answered, the urgency in his voice was palpable.

“Sophia,” he said, his concern evident. “The Maestro Paus is already in the hospital, and my assistant. Laura, has taken care of the rest.”

Sophia’s voice wavered as she asked, ” Which hospital are you in?”

“Stone Medica,” Alexander replied. ” My family owns hospitals with the best specialists. We brought him here to ensure he gets the best treatment.”
