Chapter 961

“Good day, miss. I’m looking for the Surgery Department. May I know which floor it is located on?”

The man who was speaking to Fia had a pair of breath-taking, blue, deep set eyes. He was on the stairs with Fia, looking at her with an earnest gaze.

Fia took a good look at him before answering his question, “It’s on the fourth floor.”

“Thank you, miss.” The man nodded before stepping aside, allowing Fia to continue descending the stairs.

Seeing this, Fia, too, nodded back at him politely before racing down the stairs. Instead of continuing his way to his supposed destination, the man kept on staring at Fia, eyeing at her slim, delicate figure and her innocent, good-willed eyes.

She was so defenseless that he could easily push her and have her rolling down the stairs, injuring her severely.

A good-hearted, defenseless girl like her was not a wicked wench like how Esme had described her. Heh, it seemed that word about Esme Manning being a liar was true after all!

Reaching a corner of the floor below, Fia sensed the man’s gaze and turned to look at him, locking eyes with him.

She asked curiously, “Is there anything else you needed?”

The man hesitated for a moment before saying, “Have you met with something untoward lately?”
