The nurse looked a bit surprised. When she had cin earlier, she saw Carol arriving with Felix. Didn't she know that Felix was

Listina's fiancé?

Someone coughed nearby, and the nurse, fearing she might land herself in trouble, especially since Carol and Felix seemed quite

close, quickly changed the subject.

"Never mind. Why don't you head to the restroom?"

Seeing the nurse's reluctance to divulge more, Carol didn’t press further and immediately scampered off to the restroom.

The nurses exchanged glances, and one of them began to muse aloud.

"I knew it. No man is that perfect. Listina's been in the hospital for years; Felix must've found someone else. That woman must be

the one."

"Exactly. This woman doesn’t even know Felix is Listina's fiancé. He's kept it tight-lipped. So handsome, yet turns out he’s a

player."

"Men are only faithful when they pass away."

"And to think I used to rave about him to everyone, drawing all that envy. Turns out I was blind."

Carol heard none of this. After returning from the restroom, she handed the hand sanitizer back to the nurse and offered a friendly

smile.

The nurse, as if she'd seen something she shouldn't have, quickly averted her gaze.

Carol found it strange. Weren't they just amicable moments ago? Confused, she went off to find Felix.
