She didn't want to take it seriously too. In that case, maybe she wouldn't be so upset!

In a daze, Alicia could still hear his explanation, but she didn't want to waste her energy on him. She rolled herself up beneath the quilt.

"Stop talking... I'm sleepy!"

Only then did he remember that the doctor wanted her to rest more. He recalled adding some medicine in the soup, which helped her to sleep peacefully. He smiled faintly as he thought he had been overthinking, then adjusted the quilt for her.

That day, Frederick accompanied her in the hospital and watched her sleep until noon.

When Alicia opened her eyes, it was already three o'clock in the afternoon. She had a good sleep and she felt so much better. Noticing a cake and a packet of milk placed on the table, she picked it up and ate it as she was starving.

After that, she got up and stretched. Sure enough, she was refreshed only in good condition!

She recalled him mentioning she had fainted because she was "tired". Since she had rested for a whole day, she wanted to get discharged from the hospital as soon as possible. After all, it cost a lot for her to stay in the hospital.

As she was drinking the milk, she walked out of the room.

After asking the doctor and knowing that there was no need to go through any discharge formalities, Alicia signed the papers and was ready to pack her things up.

On the way back to her room, noticing that she had almost finished the milk, she wanted to find a trash can to discard it. As soon as she approached a trash can, she heard a familiar chuckle out of nowhere.

"Yes..."

Frederick?

Who was he talking to? How could he be so happy? It was not until she craned her nack that she realized that he was on the phone.

"Alright, I am really busy today! Alright, Hannah..."

As he spoke her name, it pierced through Alicia's eardrum. She subconsciously exerted her strength. Suddenly, a low and muffled crushing sound could be heard. Looking down, she noticed that the milk cartor in her hand was squished. At the same time, Frederick heard the sound and turned his head. Their eyes met, and both of them were surprised.
