Angela’s full–body examination was completed. Although the report was pending, the doctor concluded that there were no major issues, aside from the visible slap mark on the face.

As a precaution, he suggested that Angela stay a night in the hospital.

After the doctor left, Jonathan sat by the bedside. He gazed at Angela like she was a child who had erred, and gently inquired, “Are you still in pain?”

The side of her face that had been struck was swollen, and Angela felt a burning sensation.

She shook her head, her voice soft as she answered, “It’s much better after I applied the prescribed medication. Now, it’s just a little uncomfortable.”

Tenderly, Jonathan stroked her head. “Then, rest well.”

As he rose to leave, she caught his sleeve and stopped him. He turned back, asking softly, “What’s the matter?”

Angela bit her lip, gazing up earnestly. “Are you upset?” She spoke slowly, perhaps to prevent worsening her injury.

Each word was uttered gently, yet they tugged at Jonathan’s heart. He settled back down, clasping her hand. “Yeah.”

“I’m sorry.” Angela lowered her gaze, her tone sincere. “I didn’t intend to cause trouble. I felt compelled to assist Sarah to prevent…”

Potential assault.

Although she could have turned a blind eye, witnessing the situation compelled her to act.

She understood that self–preservation was key after her rebirth, yet her innate kindness prevented her from standing idly by.

Jonathan’s gaze was profound as he gently remarked, “I’m not upset because you helped others and got into trouble.”

Angela raised her eyes, puzzled. “Then… is it because I lack intelligence? Or that I couldn’t defend myself but acted impulsively?”

In retrospect, she was somewhat fearful. She had consumed a bit too much alcohol at the time, leading to her actions.
