Chapter 0007

At the hospital.

The moment Dylan stepped through the door, Anne threw herself into his arms. She clung to him like a rag doll, trembling against him. "Dylan, I feel awful... I feel so terrible..."

"Where does it hurt?"

Dylan tried to push her away, but instead of letting go, she only clung tighter.

"Everywhere..." Anne moaned, placing his hand on her chest. "Especially here, it feels like bugs crawling under my skin-itching, unbearable. Mr. Dylan, please help me!"

Her behavior was clearly not normal. “I'll call the doctor."

"No, I don't want a doctor. I want you." Anne clung to him like a vine, her hands restlessly undoing his shirt buttons. “Please, Mr. Dylan, help me, I feel like I'm dying. If you don't help me, I really will die..."

As her fingers worked to undo the buttons, Dylan grabbed her wrists. “Anne, calm down..."

"I can't calm down..." She leaned in, trying to kiss him, whispering his name over and over, “Mr. Dylan, Mr. Dylan..."

Just as she was about to succeed, Dylan forcefully pushed her away, sending her sprawling to the floor. His resistance spoke volumes, even if he hadn't said a word.

A flicker of coldness flashed in Anne's eyes, but when she looked up again, only sadness remained.

"Mr. Dylan, do you hate me?"

Dylan didn't respond, nor did he help her up.

Instead, he turned away. "I'm calling a doctor."

Anne wasn't about to let him leave.

She scrambled to her feet and wrapped herself around him from behind. "I told you, I don't want a doctor. I want you! Please, Mr. Dylan, take me...”

“Anne, something is clearly wrong with you,” Dylan said, his lips pressed into a thin line. “You need to see a doctor."

"No doctor can help me. Only you can save me."

As she spoke, Anne began stripping off her own clothes. "Please, save me. I'm begging you."
