The girl's jealousy flared even stronger at the sight. Forcing a strained smile, she turned to Karina and asked, "And who might this be?"

Wilfred answered before Karina could speak. "This is Karina, my... friend."

As he spoke, he glanced at Karina, a trace of warmth flickering in his gaze, unnoticed by anyone but her.

Though Karina felt uncomfortable with the girl's passive-aggressive remarks, she maintained her composure. Smiling politely, she said, "Hello. Since you were treated by Dr. Wilfred, I trust you're fully recovered. Wishing you continued good health."
