The bodyguard standing by the door couldn't help but roll his eyes. At a time like this, Ms. Winslet was still worried about being overcharged on her bike. What kind of bizarre thought process was that? Stuart seemed used to it. "I'll cancel the bike rental for you," he said calmly. "But we're going to be staying at this hospital for a while. You need to rest and heal up. I'll sort out your leave from work." Morwenna felt perfectly fine and wanted to protest.

But Stuart was convinced she wasn't alright, and her protests fell on deaf ears.

Well, she didn't protest too vigorously anyway.

Against the old, harsh Stuart, she could have fought back toe-to-toe.

But standing in front of Stuart as he is now, Morwenna just couldn't find the guts to say no.

So, Morwenna stayed put for three days.

On the morning of the third day, Morwenna woke to find herself with Stuart's bathrobe pulled open, her face pressed against his chest. She really felt like crying. How desperate was she for him!

If Stuart kept this up, she wasn't sure she could hold back much longer.

Then Morwenna suddenly noticed the scars on Stuart's chest.
