Sasha replied: Really? What time? Are you going back to Oceanic Estate straight away?

Sebastian was rendered speechless.

Such continuous questioning had overstepped the boundaries of her job scope as a family physician. Her employer had all the right to ignore her questions, or even fire her.

Before twelve o’clock? That’s great. I’m contented as long as he tells me an exact time.

 

Relief washed over Sasha. Then, she made her way down the stairs.
