After breaking down in tears and nearly having a heart attack, Zinnia was at her limit. She badly needed a

proper rest.

Nathan stepped out of the room and made a phone call.

“Nathan.” Yannis replied, his voice clear and pleasant.

“Yannis, can you come over tonight?” Nathan glanced at the person sleeping in the room. He looked back at Zinnia, still asleep.

Yannis replied. “What’s wrong? I can come right now.” Hearing the sigh in Nathan’s voice, Yannis, who had been working on some documents, immediately grabbed his coat from the hanger and headed out.

“Zinnia found out a bit about my condition,” Nathan said quietly. “She can’t handle it.”

Zinnia woke up to find that night had already fallen. The tightness in her chest had eased somewhat.


She ran a hand through her hair. Remembering Nathan’s condition, she bolted upright from bed, her bare feet hitting the floor as she hurried out.

“Master,” she called out anxiously. Her voice carried a note of urgency. She didn’t know how she’d suddenly fallen asleep.

Though she’d checked Nathan’s pulse recently and found nothing amiss, the thought of Nathan being ill still filled her with unease.
