Returning from the Dead: His Secret Lover

Kurt stared wordlessly at Vivian.

He gritted his teeth and leaned forward, scooping Vivian into his arms.

Vivian yelped in surprise, and she hastily flung her arms around his neck, clinging on for dear life. Her eyes were as wide as saucers.

What the heck is he doing?

She blushed furiously, having never been carried by a boy before today.

Kurt was not faring any better, though he quickly focused on bringing Vivian to a doctor. His mind was whirling with anxious thoughts.

Why is she unwell? Didn't she recover yesterday? Why is this recurring?

He rushed toward the emergency department and declared, “Doctor, she's very ill. Please take a look at her.”

“Huh?”

The doctors bustling about the department lifted their heads to stare at them in confusion.

It was only then that Vivian understood Kurt's intentions, and she was both furious and embarrassed by his actions.

She pleaded, “I'm not that sick. Please put me down.”

Kurt refused, much to her chagrin. He held her in his arms until a doctor approached them and directed them to a hospital bed.
