Chapter 1852

Wilfred's words hit right where it mattered most, resonating deeply with the nurse. She sighed heavily, while the others shook their heads and muttered their own exhausted complaints, clearly worn out.

"Exactly. But what can we do? She's a patient sent to us, so we've got no choice but to deal with it," the nurse replied, her voice tinged with resignation.

It was then that she noticed Karina standing beside Wilfred. The way Karina seemed naturally close to him caught her attention. Though the two didn't speak much, their dynamic was apparent even in their body language.

Karina instinctively leaned slightly toward Wilfred, her posture subtly tilted in his direction-something she herself probably hadn't realized.

The nurse's eyes glinted with understanding, and a knowing smile spread across her face. When she spoke again, there was an unmistakable hint of teasing in her tone. "Still, Dr. Wilfred, you shouldn't have brought someone else into this situation." She gestured subtly toward the patient on the bed, assuming her voice was low enough to be discreet.

But Karina overheard every word. Her eyelashes fluttered nervously as she glanced at Wilfred, trying to gauge his reaction. To her surprise, his expression remained calm and unreadable.

"Let's go inside," Wilfred said, his tone steady, brushing off the nurse's remark entirely.

The nurse didn't stop them, stepping aside to let them pass.

As soon as they entered, the girl on the bed spotted Wilfred. Though the sedative had calmed her considerably, her eyes still lit up the moment she saw him.
