Astrid was fuming, her cheeks flushed with frustration. Meanwhile, Thalassa was doing her utmost, rushing from one hospital to another to ensure Astrid received the best care. Thankfully, Astrid's condition was showing signs of improvement.

But Dr. Funke's comment, especially made in front of Thalassa, was like rubbing salt in the wound. How could he be so insensitive?

With a sidelong glance at Astrid, Dr. Funke coolly stated, "I never misjudge a situation."

"Oh, come on... You..." Astrid was at a loss for words, ready to give Dr. Funke a piece of her mind.

Thalassa quickly stood up, gently taking Astrid by the arm, soothing her, "Auntie, please, don't get worked up. Have a seat and relax for a bit."

She helped her aunt to a chair by the dining table.

Then, turning to Dr. Funke, she said, "Dr. Funke, this is my aunt. She just dropped by to deliver some documents for me. Please, take a seat. The lady you're supposed to meet for the blind date hasn't arrived yet."
